Last night was a wonderful meal in Tony Hsieh's loft where the speakers got a chance to introduce themselves and meet each other. This sign was part of the art. I like it!





Chef Stacey Dougan, a gourmet vegan and raw chef, with her team prepared an amazing meal!


Chante, this photo is for you. The evenings soup and brownie dessert, were made with the Vitamix!



Yes, that's my plate, and two bowls of soup. I loves me some soup! It was so fresh and flavorful. Loved it!

  

The brownie was made in the Vitamix also, it's raw cacao, pecans and raisins. Delish!


Dinner is over and it's time to walk across the street and continue the Stitch Factory get together at the Commonwealth bar. Wow, what a richly textured venue. Plus, the Pickelback was pretty darn good. More on that later.



 Look who came along for the evening look; butter LONDON Wink lipstick in Black Cherry. It's a great way to wear the Fall trend of dark lips without that much commitment!


The first day ended with the Commonwealth and started with a tour of Zappos. I love the LEGO welcom sign.

There are so many take aways from the time at Zappos and how they build their community culture. I'm definitely inspired. The company focuses on reducing carbon foot print and recycling. Love it!

This experience has brought up something new for TEEN WEEK 2014. A $1000 scholarship to a teen #startup! Stay tuned for details if you are a teen or know a teen who needs some seed money to start up a project in their community!

I'm going back to Stitch Factory right now-more soon!

Here is the video from my night of positive encouragement speaking in Las Vegas at the DownTown Speakers Series
