Valeri
started Powerful Women International to help women live their dreams
and to begin to network and support each other worldwide.
My dream is that women have whatever their hearts
desire. I believe that through networking,
seminars and workshops, I can inspire people to live happily
and prosperously no matter what their circumstances
are. I also believe that fulfilled, vibrant women will be better for
their mates, families, communities, and together we can bring a powerful
change to the world!
I believe people should be happy and fulfilled.
Some people often look at their circumstances, never get past them and
live a life of unhappiness.
I have been through much in my life; however, I always look for the silver
lining in the darkest clouds or the worst of
situations. When I look, I see the miracles waiting
to happen! I want to bring this to others.
About the CEO
Valeri Bocage
is the founder of Powerful Women International and
has been assisting people in living their dreams for over 15 years. She
has inspired hundreds of people to fulfill on their
life's mission. She has coached authors, entrepreneurs, parents,
families, public speakers and artists to expand their vision for what
was possible in their professional and personal lives.
Valeri was born and raised in New Orleans, LA. As a result of Hurricane
Katrina, Valeri lost EVERYTHING, except her indomitable spirit and true
passion for life. She took the loss as an opportunity to start a whole
new life. She moved to San Francisco to fulfill on her dream of "EMPOWERING
WOMEN TO EMPOWER THE WORLD." Powerful Women International is doing just
that. Now, only a few years later PWI has more than 20 connections around the
world.
