2008 Unlock Your Dreams Conference a Huge Success


The first annual Unlock Your Dreams Conference held this past Saturday, August 9, 2008 at a New York City Holiday Inn Hotel was an excellent idea. One of the amazing and refreshing highlights of the event was the introduction of each speaker. Prior to speakers taking the stage, their introduction was presented by praise dancers, each with positive messages that moved the crowd. While all speakers had words of encouragement, the most heartfelt speakers were Mr. Dominic Carter from NY1, a young man by the name of Obinna Ndu, and of course Mrs. Cheryl "Salt" Wray.

Mrs. Wray aka Salt from the famous duo Salt 'N Pepa gave insight to the importance of why self-esteem is so important and how we must all seek the wisdom and guidance of God. She was able to share a piece of herself with the audience and afterwards made time to sign autographs, take pictures and just talk to people. Mrs. Wray is a true example of how inner beauty has the ability to manifest itself once one taps into it.

About: Inner Beauty Solutions, Inc.

An award winning girls’ self-esteem and empowerment company catering to girls from ages eight to nineteen. We address girls’ emotional aggression which affects their self-esteem levels. Girls tend to vent their aggression via gossip, backstabbing, isolation of themselves or their peers, name calling, etc. by the time they reach upper middle school and high school, if not properly addressed, girls may become physically aggressive which may result in unfavorable punitive consequences. Additionally, because their self-esteem levels have been lowered this causes them to have difficulty in maintaining healthy relationships.
