Many readers will know I’m a member of the Baby Boomer Diva Nation – in fact I believe I was the first Aussie on the list.
Below is a press release written by Beverly Mahone, the founder of this group. I love this group of ladies – they are very special people and I’m proud to be part of their group.
So what is a DIVA? She’s a baby boomer woman who’s Divinely, Inspired, Vivacious and Anointed.
They’re known as Baby Boomer Divas—women over 40 who are on the move and making a difference in their personal and professional lives.
This month the group celebrates its one year anniversary. The idea to create a Baby Boomer Diva Web of Fame came from baby boomer author and expert Beverly Mahone who says, “This was my way to pay tribute to baby boomer women who were doing great things at midlife but weren’t getting their deserved recognition. Mahone says the Divas are all very talented women who come from very diverse backgrounds around the globe. “We come from all walks of life and different races and are eager to share our knowledge and resources. We’ve had a few bumps in the road and some detours but we continue to persevere.
Mahone adds that in addition to a global presence, they are also honored to have celebrities like actresses Debbie Zipp and Bern Nadette Stanis who are active members and want to offer their assistance in helping them grow.
The official anniversary date is July 22, 2007. Since its inception, the Baby Boomer Diva Web of Fame has continued to grow by leaps and bounds. Mahone says the Web of Fame is now officially known as Boomer Diva Nation—a nonprofit organization that provides a variety of resources to assist fellow boomer women in their endeavors. It’s also a place where women can network Mahone anticipates the groups continued growth over the coming year.
“Who would’ve ever thought last year that something called the Baby Boomer Diva Web of Fame would turn into what it is today?”
