Jerrie Ueberle, Founder Of World Academy For The Future Of Women, Receives 'Ladies Leading a Legacy' Award

Recipients of the award contribute both time and talent to assist women with educational and career opportunities and inspire others to reach their full potential

Jerrie Ueberle, founder of “World Academy for the Future of Women”, is one of several recipients of the “Ladies Leading a Legacy” award, an initiative of the Sisterhood Extravaganza, a 501c3 non-profit organization that recognizes pioneering women who make a difference in the lives of others by contributing their time and talents to assist women with educational & career opportunities, mentoring them, and leading in a way that inspires other women to reach their full potential.

The award was presented to Ms. Ueberle in March 2017 in Phoenix, AZ, during the 3rd Annual Sisterhood Extravaganza Empowering Women Success Summit that took place in celebration of International Women’s Day, an event that recognizes women who are making a difference in the world.

“It is an honor”, stated Ms. Ueberle, “to be recognized for the work already done, and I want to share this award with all the highly skilled women in the USA and abroad who are contributing time and talent to making WAFW a progressive  program that changes women’s lives.”

The World Academy for the Future of Women (WAFW), an Arizona based initiative, began on the campus of Sias International University in 2009, in Henan province in rural China. It is a bold and daring leadership program focused on developing young women for leadership roles that address the United Nations’ Millennium Development Goals (UN-MDGs) and UN Sustainable Development Goals. WAFW, which grew from a one year curriculum to a multi-level three year curriculum for women is unique in that it also incorporates a “Men’s Academy for the Future of Women” - a program that prepares men to support the advancement of women. More information is available at the group's website at https://wafw.org/.

Author And Speaker Elizabeth Welles To Speak At Paradise Valley Community College On Journaling, Creativity And Meditation on February 7, 2013

Nationally known author and speaker Elizabeth Welles will speak on journaling to heal grief, sharpen intuition, deepen one's peace and enhance creativity. In addition, on Saturday March 2nd she will present a 3 hour cooking, journaling and meditation experience entitled 'COJOME' to Eat Write and Relax

Acclaimed author and speaker Elizabeth Welles will be appearing at Paradise Valley Community College in Phoenix, Arizona on February 7, 2013. The topic of her presentation will be journaling and how journaling can help heal grief, sharpen intuition, deepen one's peace and enhance creativity. The event will be held in the PVCC Buxton Library, Building E at 18401 N. 32nd St. in Phoenix, AZ., from 12 noon to 1pm.  The no charge event is open to the public and is a part of the Lifelong Learning Seminar series, presented by the PVCC Counseling Division.

"Journaling," stated Ms. Welles, "de-clutters your life. It helps you dream on paper and clears paths to your own true voice. It unveils reservoirs of creativity that lie inside you. It gives you a safe harbor in which to heal, and provides you the room where your dreams can unfold. Meditation is a thoroughly integrated art and science, long in history, with valuable implications. In a culture of increasing frenetic noise, meditation is your appointment with peace. These two key practices contribute to health and well-being, and support you in living a life of peace and joy."

On Saturday, March 2 Welles will present a 3 hour cooking-journaling-meditation experience entitled 'COJOME' to Eat Write and Relax. Participants will learn how to make four fabulous healthy desserts. The dishes are easy-to-make recipes with inexpensive ingredients from Trader Joe’s and Sprouts (or Whole Foods.). No wheat, dairy or eggs are involved in the preparation of these dishes. Participants will also experience joyful camaraderie, playful journaling exercises, and a quiet meditation before indulging in the pleasure of dessert eating. The event will be held at a private residence in northeast Scottsdale AZ.

"If you need help finding or pursuing your creative gifts, then Elizabeth is the guide you want. Nothing else can quite substitute for the knowledge and know-how she brings to the table. I’m honored that I had the privilege to work with and come to know her. She inspires the artist and creator within us all with wisdom, compassion, and grace." -  Carol Lynn Healy, Energy Medicine Specialist
