Living a life of mediocrity, sadly, is a choice many make for their lives - whether they intended to make that choice or not. We believe that we were not meant to live a life of mediocrity. Mediocrity will never do. Mediocrity is never acceptable. Mediocrity is the worst enemy of prosperity - of truly LIVING.
You were created to live a life of excellence. Yet so many people default to mediocrity simply because they don’t know HOW to live a life of excellence. They settle for realistic rather than extraordinary. They fail to see the miracles that are surrounding them on a daily basis. They fail to live an abundant life - settling for the mundane. Over and over again.
What if someone could show you how to take that chance, that risk? What if someone could help you find your passion - or rekindle it. What if someone could show you that it is truly worth it to step out of your comfort zone and rise up and build a life of excellence?
What if the time for you to Rise Up and Build is NOW?
Well. It is.
The definition of “NOW” is “at the present moment.
At the present moment. Not next week, next month, or next year.
to Rise Up to the challenges of your life and create beauty from the ashes. NOW is the time to put fear in the backseat - where it belongs. NOW is the time to leave behind a life of mediocrity and embrace a life of miracles, abundance, and excellence.

Napoleon Hill is quoted as saying, “ Nobody rises above mediocrity unless they use the brains of other people.”
At The Rise and Build Women’s Conference, Lily Yang and Carrie Verrocchio will introduce you to women who will encourage you to Rise Up and Build. They will inspire you. They will teach you. They will show you how to motivate yourself to leave your mediocrity behind as you step into the excellence you so desperately desire. They will show you the greatness that is lying dormant within you and give you the opportunity to let that greatness shine. They will show you how to embrace beautiful skin and a beautiful attitude.
They will love you and accept you - just as you are. They will not ask you to be anything other than yourself. They will show you how powerful you are as they lead you on a path to excellence.
And that is the path you were created to travel.
Wouldn’t you agree?
The Rise and Build Women’s Conference January 17th and 18th - 9 AM - 6 PM
The Rise and Build Women’s Conference will be held at the Ben Franklin Technology Partners of Northeastern Pennsylvania, Bethlehem, PA. This event space is not only beautiful, but also spacious with plenty of space to spread out and get to know the other women in the room.
Due to the excellence building at this event, we are limiting attendance to 60 women who are ready to transform their lives.
We have an entire itinerary planned to help you break the bonds of mediocrity and Rise Up to the level of excellence that you were born to embrace. All you have to bring is your desire to learn, grow, and step out of your comfort zone.
To become the best version of yourself and break the bonds of mediocrity, you have to excuse yourself from the presence of those who would keep you small and surround yourself with those who understand your calling to become excellent.
We have created the perfect balance of work, play and networking so you can walk away from this retreat with the confidence and clarity to let go of the “good enough” attitude and embrace the “excellence” attitude.
I know it can be scary to break out of the mold you have created for yourself. But you deserve to know what it’s like to say YES to yourself, YES to letting go of your limitations, and YES to excellence.
