Hello! MISS LOPEZ miss You already! Do you know Lopez is a Spanish surname originally from Madrid and Castillian. My father, Lopez as well was from Madrid and I know.
Well now Lopez is everywhere specially with this new video of JLo and Pitbutt with a touch of Lambada, Brasilian music. Talking about Carnaval, it couldn´t be a better time to release this new JLo music. Don´t you think so?
By the way, it has been a record on YouTube already in a very short time! So many views already!

The must be something with la Lopez!!  By the way I love Pitbull too!
Enjoy JLo new song on the floor you too! It can´t be a better way to celebrate Women´s International Day, don´t you think so? Let´s dance on the floor together!

FEELGOOD WOMANHOOD more than ever with JLO!!

 Buenos dias amigos!

Victoria Gomez here, blogging from the comfort of her home thanks to her new precious Iphone4 baby (I have named him Karl). Today is the big day when everything will happen and I cannot wait until I have my hands full with sangria, name lists, lottery prices and tortilla plates.

This marvelous Thursday Miss Lopez and me will host our first big event: Miss Lopez Kick-Off, at Restaurant Lois between 5-10 pm, where we will bring you everything from authentic Spanish food, Latin music and Feelgood Womanhood, to mingling, dancing and the chance to win a special “Miss Lopez prize”. If this is not enough, I will also perform a Shakira song for all the guests in honor of her sponsorship for this event under her Non-Governmental Organization “Fundación de piez descalzos”. Viva Miss Lopez and Shakira!

Yes, today is going to be something else, and even more now that I have filled up my quota for inspiration and Feelgood. You see, I am completely star struck and awed after having seen a Youtube-clip of an amazing business woman, entrepreneur, Latina, inspiration speaker and hostess called: Liliana Gil.

Being an experienced Business Woman from Colombia, Liliana has paved the way not only for Latin Culture in America, but also for all women out there with brains, color and spunk. Her accomplishments include amongst other things being the Director of Marketing Services for Johnson&Johnson,  figurating in the Harvard Business Reviews as a contributor to different studies, and being the hostess of “Moments to Culturise” (a program promoting marketing with a “Latin” touch). In 2008 she also won the Latin National Pride Awards for Business Woman of the year. Young, gifted, beautiful and latina. What could be better?

Check out the clip and Let your Thursday be as rich in wallet as heart as mine is thanks to Liliana Gil.

  Hopefully, I will see you all tonight! Be there or be square chiquillos!

Dear Miss Lopez readers!

Finally, an update from Education- and Language Consultant Victoria Gomez! Lately, things have been pointing upwards everywhere and I have been really busy preparing for upcoming projects with Miss Lopez and myself (I promised to reveal a big surprise here on Miss Lopez last time and I intend to keep my promise in a nearby future as well). Despite my busy-bee buzz, there is a person whom I just recently connected with, whom has given me so much strength, energy and inspiration that I just simply could not resist in making her Woman of The Day on Miss Lopez. My newfound source of business joy is named Sophie Brömster, and here follows the interview I had with her at Ilcaffe yesterday. We talked about everything from sales, business, motivation and leadership, to future prospects, self-awareness and of course the idea of Feelgood Womanhood. What a wonderful way to mix business with fun eh?!

Congratulations to your nomination as Woman of The Day Sophie! Tell us, who exactly is Sophie Brömster?

- Muchas gracias Victoria. My name is as you might already know Sophie Brömster and I am 22 years old. Right now I am a full-time student enrolled in a vocational education program that focuses on sales and management, given by the Nackademin in Stockholm. There I get to study everything from sales, communication and psychology to leadership and project management. My biggest passion is however communication and the interrelations between people. For example, I am very interested in learning all about social corporate structures and how to create a positive work environment in a business-stressed world.

Interesting! So you are a woman with business on her mind as well as her heart. Tell us a little bit more about what you are currently working on. Do you have any special projects you are active with?

- Well, right now I am working intensely with my personal blog that focuses on sales techniques, marketing, leadership and psychology. The blog is called: Sales management and qualified sales leads and you and of all your readers are more than welcome to visit it and leave a thought or two! I might as well add that I am also active in the regional board of SCUF  (a youth society for lactose- and gluten-intolerant persons), where I plan on becoming the chairman at the upcoming board meeting in March. My aim is to develop my leadership skills through this post and try to increase and expand our organization by approaching new strategies on how to reach our current members and those who are curious of SCUF, as well as raise awareness on the subject.

Wow! What a multi-facetted, young and driven woman you seem to be! Your personality seems to go well hand in hand with the concept of well-being. As such, I want to ask you: What is Feelgood Womanhood to you?

 - When I first heard about the concept of Feelgood Womanhood and read Miss Lopez blog, I immediately thought about strong women who are comfortable with themselves, who dare to take place and who are not afraid of showing off who they are. For me the whole idea of “Knowing thyself” is extremely crucial, as I believe that self-knowledge is one of the major keys to success (both private and professional success). For this reason I always associate Feelgood with confidence and self-discovery, and Womanhood with empowerment and femininity.

A true Simone De Beauvoir at heart! If we take it to the next Miss Lopez level then, what can you say about the “Latin” touch? And do you have any personal connections to the Spanish/Latinamerican culture and lifestyle?

- Well, my boyfriend has a Colombian background so I am somewhat familiar with the South American culture and the Spanish language. For instance, I have travelled to Colombia before, and I am very fond of Spanish food such as tortilla and salsa. One thing I have discovered about the “Latin” touch is that people from Spanish-speaking countries tend to be very open and welcoming to everyone. I remember being in Colombia with my boyfriend and receiving so much love and guidance from totally complete strangers! If anything, I think we Swedes could learn from this behavior and be more acceptant towards visitors. All it takes is a little bit more of Victoria Gomez, Miss Lopez, Feelgood Womanhood and ultimately Carnaval;-)

What an inspiration you are to all of us! Finally, where can we expect to find this amazing Sophie in a nearby future…

-On my blog and through a sales-channel near you! You never know where I might pop up next time or whom I may initiate a future collaboration with;-)  (Sophie and the owner of Il Caffe to the right)

Dear Miss Lopez readers!

This is Victoria Gomez, blogger and Language consultant, writing to you in all humbleness and awe for the interview I have prepared for all of you today.                                                                                         You see, a while ago Miss Lopez and I met this astounding young woman at the afterparty for the Golden Beetle Awards (Guldbaggegalan) and became completely fascinated by her talent, writing skills and Feelgood Womanhood aura. This women is a famous Swedish/Greek author, blogger, columnist, host, (nowadays dancer as well), and an extraordinary inspiration source for all multi-talented, multi-facetted people out there who like some color in their life!

Said and done, with such an opportunity at hand I just could not resist in asking her to become Woman of the Day for Miss Lopez, and what do you know? She said yes!

Ladies and gentlemen, I need no further introduction. The third Woman of the Day on Miss Lopez is none other than…. Alexandra Pascalidou!

Welcome to Miss Lopez! Tell us: What exactly is Alexandra Pascalidou currently working with?

-          Well, right now I am working with Let’s Dance on TV4, Ring P1 on SR, columns in the Newspaper Metro, Min Stora feta grekiska kokbok  (My Big Fat Greek Cookbook) with Bonniers and a bunch of lectures and host jobs.

Wow! You seem like a woman with a lot of diversity in your life. As such, I would like to ask you: What is Feelgood Womanhood to you?

-          I would say that the interpretation of this concept is rather free. For me it is all about becoming who you are deep down inside, to be an upright woman that dares to take place and take position in favor of human rights and against injustices, and ultimately to find the balance between family and career without restraining from your dreams.

I must say, I am a big fan of your work and love the way you combine your personal story with hard core reality. What I want to know is: What lead you into the writing business, so to say, what made you into the writer you are today?

-          I have a lot of personal things that I have and like to share with others; experiences that have and can help both strengthen and inspire. My first book “Bortom mammas gata”/ Beyond Mother’s Street (Atlas) became a classic because I was first with writing about the existence and struggle for a dignified life in Sweden as a woman, blatte (immigrant) and a working class child. I believe this has may have partly molded me into the writer I am today.

Apart from an exccellent writer, you also represent a lot of Feelgood woman out there. On that account I wonder: Do you have any female role models? If so, who are they and how have they inspired you?

Rosa Parks, Oprah Winfrey, Michelle Obama, Mother Teresa, Audrey Hepburn, Frida Kahlo and my mother. These are all strong and inspiring women that have survived difficult circumstances and had the courage to go their own way.

What do you think about Spanish and Latinamerican culture and life-style?

-          I have previously travelled throughout Chile, Bolivia and Peru for three months and I have a cousin in Bolivia and tons of friends from Latinamerica .   This makes me feel quite at home in these cultures. My only wish is that I was better at dancing salsa, samba, merengue and tango! Once, I also received an exclusive interview with Maradona that was aired in several countries and that probably constitues the highlight point of my career.

Talk about true “Latin” touch! Final question then: Where can we find Alexandra next?

- On Television, on radio, in a bookshop, in a newspaper, in a lecture hall near you or on my blog: www.metrobloggen.se/pascalidou

Thank you Alexandra for the interview and for being you! Make sure to buy her book on Greek Food. I know I will;-)
