Because of my 9 year old daughter, I have a song from Camp Rock running through my head...Click here if you want to watch my daughter and her best friend singing it!
"This is real, this is me.
I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be now.
Gonna let the light shine on me.
Now I know who I am.
There's now way to keep it in.
No more hiding who I'm supposed to be.
This is me."
There is so much to share from the Start Up Princess Retreat that it's hard to know where to start. HUGE thanks to wonderful mentors,
Holly Buchanan, Barbara Jones, Gabrielle Blair, Gwen Bell, Janet Meiners Thaeler. Thanks to other fairy godmothers and inspiring friends , Kelly King Anderson, Carol Rice, Rachael Herrscher, Leigh Anne Willkes, Quinn Curtis, Jenny Johnson, Sarah Jane, Marie LeBaron, Amber Passey, Michelle McCullough, Kris and Kim .
One thing I know for sure is that I will be putting tons of new ideas into action over the next couple of weeks that will include lots of link love offering inspiration that will blow you away. In the meantime, I want to share a few changes that are coming soon...
ZoomAlbum will be launching a new website shortly that will be DRASTICAllY improved and easier to navigate. When this happens...thanks to amazing suggestions from Janet Meiners Thaeler (aka, newspapergrl), I'll be launching a new blog specific to ZoomAlbum. I hope to have testimonials and guest submissions and LOTS and LOTS of link love to everyone that has made a ZoomAlbum! Additionally there will be awesome ideas and contests. You'll be amazed at how many ways these little buggers can impact your personal and professional life!
Once the new site and blog is introduced, I'll be continuing to evolve Zoom About Ellen by adding video journaling, photos and written thoughts, ideas, tools and sharing about validation, empowerment, intuition and essentially ways to make your busy life easier and more fulfilling! It's the counselor/art therapy seeker in me, I know! So I've decided to take the advice of one of my favorite blog goddesses, Angie Pedersen and GO FOR IT!
In the meantime I want to ask that you all participate in my contest for November. IT"S SO EASY! As I mention over and over again, I am all about empowerment, intuition and keeping your dreams close to you. All you have to do is share what you do or are going to commit to doing to keep your dreams close. Here's how to enter:
Submit a picture/quote/idea/strategy that you use to help you remember your dreams and continue down the path of pursuing them. You can:
A. Submit the comment here or
B. Email me at ellen@zoomalbum.com with an attached picture or comments or

I'll choose randomly from what comes in 1 person who will receive enough to make 10 FREE ZOOMALBUM pocket-sized photobooks! THINK GIFTS, and STOCKING STUFFERS!
Can't wait to hear your inspiration! You never know...it may empower someone else to keep their dreams close to them and MAKE IT HAPPEN!
