Grand group....

I was invited to a new female network the other day and I have to admit I did not have that much expectations of this meeting, more then to meet some new females and share knowledge. First meeting I could not attend, so this was the second one.

15 highly skilled and experienced women met in the Italian Restaurant Trattoria Romana in the old city here in Stockholm. I only knew one woman, had met another one before, but the other 13 was just a great huge bonus.

During the evening and as we presented ourselves, our profession, background and familiy situation , I could not stop smiling. Because of happiness, and also very much impressed by their stories and the choices they have made thrue their life.

So many lovely beautiful women with so much expereinces, so different background, so different perspectives and also very different in many ways.

Then it was great to understand what we had in common,to increase our network, share knowledge and also of course have a great time together.

Lucky me, i was seated in the sofa together with Maria, Carina and Else-Marie, and there are no words enough to tell everthing they shared this evening.

Fantastic. Felt like a birth day party with so many gifts in one evening.


Well.. what says in the Grand Group stays in the Grand group, .. but I wish that you had heard and had half as much laughs and stories from our talks as I had, and that would fill you for a long long time.

I will make sure that i take care of these new connections in my very best way and I see this is one of the biggest gifts for a long time, and even more, I just feel that this will be a very good investment.

One friend once told me " you get what you deserve Anna ..." and then he treated me badly... and I did not deserve that, truly not... but,, for this time,, i have to agree with him..

Yes I got what i deserved, this time as well.

Keep on Networking..

Your very best
Anna
