eWomenNetwork 'Accelerated Networking' Lunch: Julie Wainwright August 14, 2009

TOPIC: ReBoot: My Five Life-Changing Mistakes and How I Moved On
Julie will discuss her new book, ReBoot, which chronicles the rise, fall and rebirth of her career and heart. As CEO of Pets.com, she found herself in every major newspaper and on every television channel just as her marriage was crumbling. She struggled to get back to normal, but never made it. What happened transformed her life in unimaginable ways. If you have ever failed, need some inspiration or just some sound practical advice, this talk is for you.

At this powerful event you'll learn:

* Top 5 Mistakes: #1 Letting others define you
* #2 Not taking care of yourself
* #3 Not believing in yourself
* #4 Allowing your head to lead, not your heart
* #5 Defining yourself on external factors

SPEAKER: Julie Wainwright, has been a CEO for over 12 years, and is perhaps best known as the CEO of Pets.com and that company's enduring and endearing sock puppet. She is currently the CEO and Founder of SmartNow.com, a company focused on women's health, nutrition and fitness. She has been recognized by the San Francisco Business Times as one of the top women in business and is an accomplished speaker having spoken at such esteemed events as the Governor's Conference for Women, Purdue University and Harvard University. She is the author of ReBoot: My Five Life-Changing Mistakes and How I Moved On.
