Well, today is the first day of the next chapter for me! Not very long ago, I got it in my head that (for personal reasons) I wanted to have my own trademark. What I did NOT know was that I was about to have some really great experiences!
I learned about people and myself during this experience. It was during the process of my applying for my own trademark, that I was introduced to Beth Terry. Originally Beth had opposed the trademark I applied for. That name was a huge part of her business. Beth, as many of those who might initially come back to Corporate Cowgirl know, is a professional speaker and author! Beth however; graciously allowed me to have Corporate Cowgirl and has now moved her blog to Cactus Wrangler. Though I have not yet (no comment Beth) had a chance to meet Beth myself, from my dealings with her, I can confidently say that she is a heck of a lady! I feel like I was able to do business the old fashioned way, with a hand shack knowing each would meet their end of the deal with no “big shots” necessary! Very refreshing!
The whole experience has been new for me (as is blogging). Not only applying for the trademark but finding myself being patient during the whole process! Patience was not one of my greater qualities. I’ll write more on that later.
Initially this blog page was going to be a place where we only shared about horses. During this process however; I decided to open the blog to a number of different subjects!
Horses and all that go with them…well that was not exactly going away!
Maple Syrup in New Jersey! Hopefully I’ll be able to share some great stories with you that might send a giggle your way.
Corporate Cowgirls and finding your own truth! I know there are a lot of Corporate Cowgirls out there. And don’t think you need to ride horses to be a part of this unique and beautiful “label.” We can talk more about that…
Well, I’ll leave it at that for today! I have a lot of thoughts running thru my head about all of the wonderful doors this blog will open! I hope you’ll join me in opening this new community to me and you!
Buck the trend! Dare to live your truth!
You go girl!!! I just wanted to wish you alot of luck- i do not need to wish success because it is coming your way- if you seek it, it will come!!! this whole process is amazing and i am grateful to be part of it. Living my truth- a daily challenge- and a daily gift and wow- what rewards come when i do just that- but it is progress- sometimes i seem to get stuck in finding my truth- once i find it- then to live it- wow- what a journey!! but worth every up – every down- every tear and every bump!!!! Just like i am sure the patience you are using will pay off greatly for you!!! again- you go girl!!

Tamara – well done! I like the layout and your posts. You are living the brand well already! I am happy to have found a real Corporate Cowgirl to pass it on to. And when our journeys intersected, I was forced to rethink my brand and my ideas about my content and my presentations. So it all worked out perfectly.
You were a joy to work with on this, and even though it seems like it took forever, it was a journey I thoroughly enjoyed.
Congratulations on your new blog. I’m happy to have made a new friend in the midst of it, and I wish you all the joy and happiness in the world.
To Cowgirls!
Beth
Tamara – cool blog! Nice horse!
