I had the amazing opportunity to attend this years' Women's Conference in Long Beach, CA.
Maria Shriver and Arnold S. (won't attempt at his last name) put it on every year for women business owners, entrepreneurs etc. There were over 20,000 women who attended and it sold out in less than 3 hours!!
There were great speakers and great topics and i'm so glad I went. I heard that they do that here in TX so i'm going to look into going to that one next year.
Jillian Michaels from the Biggest Loser.
Maria welcoming us all.
Rachel Ray and Valerie Bertinelli.
You can't really see it that well but this was a conversation moderated by Chris Matthews between Arnold and Warren Buffet. I only got to listen to the last 20 min. cuz it took us forever to find a parking place so we were late.
Dr. Oz, his wife and his daughter talking about ways to live your life healthier.
Maria speaking about conquering your fears and that it's not good to be "fearless" and that when you have fears that's when your character comes out and when you find that courage within yourself to overcome those fears. Very inspiring woman!!
Lucheon conversation moderated by Campbell Brown between Condelezza Rice and the CEO of Pepsi (I can't remember her name)Was awesome to just be in the same room as these women.
I had to get front row seats for this one cuz I was so excited to hear and see from Michael J. Fox. Just being in the same room with him was emotional. Also in this forum was Russell Simmons and Laird Hamilton. It was moderated by Leeza Gibbons.

They each spoke about their foundations and what they do and how you need to stand up for what you believe in.
At the end they gave out Minerva awards and the last one they gave out was to Billie Jean King.
Bono came out and spoke about his RED/ONE campaign. He's got quite the potty mouth but you can tell how passionate he is about what's going on in Africa!
To wrap things up Bonnie Raitt performed.
Me and some of my friends from Videoplus went out to dinner and then took a walk down the pier and took some pics of the Queen Mary. It was so pretty there.
