The magazine’s editorial content provides valuable insight and encouragement for all levels of entrepreneurs, from the person with a desire to start their own business to the successful leader wishing to share their expertise.

Your outward appearance matters! Whether you’re stepping out into the speaking spotlight, showing up on Facebook and YouTube, or hosting live workshops and events for your clients — your personal image is key to whether or not you connect with your audience in an authentic way. Your image impacts you life and business every day … and I can show you how to leverage your Essence to manifest a life you love!

When you understand who you are at your very core — your Essence — and begin to dress yourself with that knowledge, your life begins to change. Those things you most desire — ideal clients, amazing joint ventures, invitations to speak, media opportunities as well as personal relationships and prosperity — are naturally drawn to you. You start achieving your personal and professional goals with ease, your confidence soars, and you are motivated to create the life and business of your dreams.

No more will you worry about what to wear for that keynote event, a black-tie gala or photo shoot for new publicity shots. Using Fashion Feng Shui® I’ll help you discover the colors, shapes and fabrics that will make you irresistible to your audience. Your image will be congruent with your message. In other words, your inner being will be congruent with your outer presence. When you come from that place of authenticity, it allows you to relax into your self and speak from your heart — so your audience won’t be distracted and can focus on your message instead of your appearance. Imagine the confidence that comes with that!

Announcing my new Dress with Intention Virtual Package!

I designed this package just for YOU — the powerful, intelligent, passionate woman you are TODAY! I’ll show you how to transform your look so the authentic you comes shining through each time you meet with a client, step on a stage, get interviewed by the media or have your photo show up on the social media sites. Together we’ll create your signature style from the inside out.

I’ll teach you how to feel confident that your image matches your message — that you’re communicating easily and effectively through your appearance. Never again will you feel anxious when you’re being photographed at an event (knowing those pics will show up on Facebook and Twitter), asked to speak for a group, meeting fans and media at your book signing, or hosting your own workshop.

From professional headshots to casual pics that show up on Facebook, to videos you post on your blog, to live appearances … you need to know you look your very best. And guess what? When you have that inner knowing that you are your best, you’re more confident, people react to you differently and you open yourself up to receive all the abundance you deserve.

Stop hiding! Reclaim your power so you can step up, stand out and shine. Isn’t it time you invest in yourself? Discover your powerful Unique Presence™. Sign up now for your very own customized Dress with Intention Virtual Package and start your transformation today!

Stacy Brice, founder of AssistU who coaches women to have extraordinary businesses and lives, started the “30 Day” projects back in November of ‘09 with 30 Days of Thanks and has continued “the good juju” with a new “30 Day” project each month ever since. For the month of April the theme is 30 Days of Organizing and I invite you to play along. It’s fun … and it’ll give you a great reason to get yourself more organized! This month Stacy added The Organizing Salon where she’ll be interviewing some fabulous organizing and productivity experts. I was thrilled when she asked me to participate and talk about keeping your closet space organized and filled with clothing that fits, flatters and fulfills you so you can take the stress out of getting dressed.

Please join Stacy and me on Wednesday, April 14th at 2:00 pm ET for our FREE teleclass “Is Your Closet Sabotaging Your Success?” and be sure to check out the other expert interviews as well. You can get all the details and register for the calls at The Organizing Salon.

I’ve been preparing for my brand new workshop MEDIA READY! Step Up, Stand Out and Rock the Spotlight that I’ll be hosting in the Boston area on May 6th.  I’m getting some great feedback about content and I’m really excited to pull it all together for an exciting, fun and powerful day. This will be a small, intimate workshop and we’ll be opening registration soon — but first I’ll be sharing some juicy bits of the workshop and answering your questions on a FREE PREVIEW CALL, Wednesday, April 21st at 1:00 pm Eastern. I’d love it if you attend my workshop, but just being on the call will give you some great tips and ideas to get you “media ready” so you can step up, play BIG and be seen … with confidence, ease and grace.

Maybe you’re right at the edge of big success, but a little scared to take the next step and be SEEN. Or maybe you’re already in the public spotlight, but frustrated that you’re not seeing more success faster. Either way, your image is impacting your success. The image you present to the world matters!

If you’re not 100% positive that your public image is rock-solid authentic, be sure to join me on this live call!

For all the details, and to get registered for the preview call, visit www.lauriemandato.com/previewcall.

It’s going to be a fun and informative call … I hope you’ll join me!
