“LYDIA” Ladies Your Destiny Is Awaiting!
By Carla Yvette
“LYDIA” Ladies Your Destiny Is Awaiting” 2014 Annual
Entreprenuer Business Women’s Luncheon was held March 1 at
UTMC the hotel.
“LYDIA,” the vision and passion of conference host Janet
Harrington, owner of InVision Salon and Spa, was born in the
1990’s when Harrington began opening her home to a small
group of women who met every first Monday.
This led to the now inspiring annual luncheon.
Harrington recently moved back to her home town of Toledo,
OH from Atlanta, GA where she had resided since 1988. She
has been an entreprenuer for over 35 years and has owned
and operated four successful studios in the fashion and
beauty industry and wanted to bring the conference to Toledo
to help inspire women to find their niche and pursue their
destiny.
The conference is geared toward motivating and inspiring
women to open their businesses or take their current
businesses to the next level.

topics such as: “Are you doing what God created you to do?”
“Communicating in a Spirit of excellence, yet getting your
point across!” “It’s already yours, asserting skills that
lead to success.” and “Leadership” and “Conflict
Resolution”.
