I am excited to be part of this group! I have been running mostly virtual events for a women in business group that I host. I plan on doing more virtual events for Oh Yes I Can Women in Business and have just started the group here on Skool. This year's summit will live inside the new Skool community. (I have the main community on FB right now and want to move it over completely to Skool.) My main thing is support and coaching new, nervous, and emerging speakers through my Public Speaker's Growth Hub. And I plan on starting virtual events for that as well.

I don't believe I have introduced myself here yet... my name is Amanda and I am currently a Virtual Assistant based out of the Ottawa, ON area. I work with women entrepreneurs to help them feel less overwhelmed, more productive, and have less on their plate so they have more time to do what they love. ❤️ While I absolutely love what I do, I'm looking for something more, so I am currently looking for new ways to grow and possibly switch business directions a little bit. I'm very open to collaborating (officially accepted into Julie's opportunity (Audience Growth Society Bundle)- which has me sooo excited as it's my first time collaborating!!! 😊 Outside of my business, I am a girl that is in her 30s who loves spending time with her family, her boyfriend and fur baby Kali. Also, over the last couple of months I have also started loving my gym experiences!! I'm looking forward to connecting with all of you and hopefully collaborating in some way in the future. Amanda

Hey hey! Super excited to join Julie's community. I'm looking forward to finding meaningful collabs + new biz besties :) About me: - I'm a French Canadian, living in Kingston Ontario - Been in this online business for 9 years - Been in business for 17 years - I'm a Canva Verified Expert - 1 of 42 worldwide and 1 of 2 in Canada. I am very proud to have been hand picked by Canva back in 2018. It's been a great journey and love having this brand partnership with Canva. - My life is basically all Canva related. I live in Canva all day long, designing for myself, for my Canva + Content membership, or for clients. I also get to test + work closely with the Canva team to develop new features. If you're interested in collaborating on anything Canva, shoot me a DM :)

Okay so I'm a keener. I posted my summit before myself. Does that make me a bit of a workaholic? Possibly. Luckily I love my work. I am privileged to be a Trauma Informed Spiritual Awakening Coach. I couch from a combination of education (Naturopathic Practitioner with too many certifications) and lived experience. At 63 I have a lot of that. So much that I wrote a book, Empower Your Spiritual Awakening, which you can find on Amazon (shameless plug). Today I can confidently say I am shameless. By that I mean I have healed the entire concept of shame and I help others to do the same. Reading through that I am definitely more work than play. I live in St. John's, Newfoundland, Canada which includes the most eastern point in North America. If you come to visit I will take you to watch the first sun rise in all of North America if the weather plays nice. I was blessed to watch the first sun rise of the new millennium, 26 years ago. My best friend is my dog Selena. She is kind enough to take me for walks in the woods and to understand when I don't want to go.

Around here some people call me The Summit Queen 👑 I help entrepreneurs grow their audience through collaboration and virtual events… things like summits, bundles, podcast guesting, and partnerships. I’ve hosted several of my own summits and something interesting happened along the way… Not only did they grow my email list, they opened doors to incredible relationships and opportunities I never expected ... including speaking at events and even sharing the stage with James Wedmore. So yes… I’m a little obsessed with helping people build rooms instead of chasing reach. But outside of business… I’m a 50-ish Canadian girl who loves houseplants, pink things, cozy mornings, and a good latte. I’ve been married almost 24 years (which honestly feels like an entrepreneurial masterclass in patience and teamwork 😂). I’m also a mom, a creative soul, and a proud dog mom to three Shih Tzu pups. And yes… I’m a total tech nerd who weirdly loves figuring out the systems behind online events. This community is something I’m really excited about because collaboration can feel confusing when you’re figuring it out alone. Here we get to explore it together. And since I started the pet thread… And here are a few of my little coworkers 🐶🐶🐶 (Oreo, Chewie and Coco) — Julie xo
