As an entrepreneur, what can we learn from Southwest Airlines? Recently, I was on a flight to California. So, coming from the East coast, it was a long flight. For the last hour before we reached San Diego, the flight attendant started playing games. We played a game where everyone who wanted to participate wrote their seat number on a dollar and passed it in, and then we had a drawing. Then we guessed the age of the flight attendants.
By the last game, people started peetering out and going back to their reading, and the prize they had concocted was not given away. The uncoveted prize was a pair of slippers made from Maxipads from the restroom and a pair of plastic Southwest Airline wings as the classy embellishment.
The flight attendant must have seen me looking longingly at the fun slippers and came up to me directly and handed them to me. I was delighted! I was able to arrive in San Diego and give them to a girlfriend I was meeting. Life is good. I bragged about Southwest Airlin ...

The Sassy Ladies interviewed Gabriella Goddard about her new book, "Gulp!", during her virtual book tour. Gabriella is from London and has written a fascinating book to help you leap-frog into the future. She has been a leadership coach for 18 years, worked internationally and has a wonderful marketing background.
 She was compelled to write the book following the devastating experience of a breast cancer scare. It forced Gabriella to take stock of her priorities and re-evaluate what was truly important in her life.
In 2001, Gabriella started Goddard International LTD, a leadership development company, helping people move ahead to a new level of self-awareness, professional growth and personal success by making fundamental shifts in how they think, what they feel and what they do.
From The Sassy Ladies' standpoint, she's also an extremely sassy marketer. You can go on her website, http://www.gabriellagoddard.com to see all of her media, videos, press packs, press releases and photos. Her product development alon ...

Her advice was to 1) create rituals, 2) play to your strengths, 3) reach for a thought that feels better, 4) visualize your ideal life, and 5) write it down, make it happen.

On Saturday, January 5, Jen Huntley-Corbin, the famous foodie and talk show host of “Jen’s Dish”( http://jensdish.blogspot.com) cooked, interviewed and celebrated with Jarvis Green of the New England Patriots. Jen is a member of The Sassy Ladies Coaching Group and we were all so proud of this big event. I went to help out with filming--and to watch Jen in action!
Jarvis Green is an amazing man. Of course he is an incredible football player on a team with a perfect record—heading towards the Super Bowl! But—he is kind, gentle, smart, curious and quite an entrepreneur himself! Jarvis is opening his own restaurant in Louisiana and has spent time at Prime and The Oyster Bar on Atwells Ave in Providence learning about the business.
He is also a man of action. Jarvis has set up his own foundation, the Jarvis Green Foundation, a non-for-profit 501(c)3 organization. His mission is to provide support to single working mothers in disadvantaged, low-income areas. Please check out his website www.jarvisgreen.com/foundation.asp and buy one of those T Shirts to wear during the game! There will be at least ONE SASSY LADY with that shirt on, besides Jen!
