| Dear Fearless Friends, I am very excited to be photographing Fearless Women Portraits at the Diva Toolbox Women's Conference in Wakefield, Massachusetts, October 20-22, 2011. My fearless friend, Belanie will be teaching a very powerful workshop at this conference.http://divatoolbox.com/conference/
 
 Belanie Dishong, Founder and CEO of Live At Choice and Live At Choice Media, is an accomplished author, motivational keynote speaker, course leader, personal coach and radio talk show host.
 I met Belanie at a women's conference a couple of years ago. Her beautiful blue eyes, which are a true reflection of her gentle and kind heart, drew me and made me want to know more about her. She is a generous and wise spirit connecting people's mind with their heart to help them break through the barriers that inhibit living ones greatness. She teaches people of all ages to help them improve the quality of their lives and free themselves to pursue their dreams and attain their goals.
 
 "Things weren't easy for me," says Belanie. "I came through some hard life challenges, defeats, and tragedies before I could see what was necessary to change my own life. In 1985 it all came tumbling down for me. Then I spent eight years in self-inquiry, self-reflection, prayer and a commitment to a greater quality of life. It was through my discoveries and personal application of what I discovered that brought to life what I now know and live as my passion and my purpose."
 
 Belanie is an inspiration and is known for not waiting for opportunity to knock but rather creating it out ahead of her. She is a visionary fearless woman who is dedicated to changing the world by empowering each person she touches, in so many ways. I am proud to know her.

 Fearlessly Yours, Mary Ann
