SPEAKER
"Into Your Greatness & Success for 2009!!"
We have always been inspired by Dr. "Angel" Ida Greene's dynamic "Jump Into Your Greatness" presentation over the years. It has become a tradition with AABWV as we share our dreams for the new year, receiving the angel's "blessing" and jump with great enthusiasm into the New Year. With such an exciting year before us (provided our candidate wins) we will all want to recommit to our greatness and jump into it with both feet! Don't miss the support of fellow attendees and jumpers as we celebrate your desire for greatness.
 
Dr. "Angel" Ida Greene is a professional speaker, coach, and extremely prolific author. She has written over 13 books! She is also the founder of "Our Center of Self Esteem" and offers self esteem counseling services for children, and anger management classes for adults
