Jackie: One business mistake you’d like to share with us
Eva: For some time, I thought that “anybody” could be my client. That is never true and doesn’t help to make decisions.
Eva: Hi Wendy! Are you listening in?
Jackie: When did you start to network for your business and how has 1230 TWC been successful for you?
Eva: In 2000. 1230 TWC has helped me expand internationally, connect with like minded women and learn from them.
Jackie: Something you would like to promote
Eva: Storytelling as a tool for change and innovation (rather than marketing and advertising).

Eva: I’d live anywhere in Europe, but especially in Italy.
Wendy Mason @WWisewolf
Oh me too RT / I’d live anywhere in Europe, but especially in Italy.

Eva: Where to start? Coco Chanel, Benazir Bhutto, @sherylsandberg, @Oprah, Anaïs Nin, Simone de Beauvoir, @melindagates

Eva: She was a pain in the ***, but she made a difference. LOL

Eva: Making apple pie. And everyone would be invited. 😉
