The Dream Party®
"The ultimate Law of Attraction event!"

Are you tired of saying "maybe next year..."
and ready to live the life of your dreams NOW?
Then, you'll definitely want to keep reading.

"Awesome and awe-inspiring..." ~ Jeff Deckman, Capability Accelerators
Have you ever done something bold and totally illogical,
yet somehow known it would all work out?
I sure have...
Soon after opening my business, at 29-years-young, I decided to go on a 10-day trip to Nevada in the summer of
2005 to connect with some friends for a grand art festival. I was feeling up for an adventure, eager to be nurtured
by art and nature, and definitely craving a get-a-way.
But, with my business under one year old at the time, I was just barely squeaking by financially. From a bookkeeping
perspective going on vacation was a bold and, frankly, bad idea. In addition to the expense of the trip itself, since I
wouldn’t have internet or phone access for the full ten days, I was also running the risk of halting the bit of
business momentum that I had just begun to build!
Although I didn’t love it, I did it...
I made a practice of regularly attending networking events – because, well, that’s what you do
when you start a business, right? With my newly printed business cards tucked into the pocket of one of the two
business-y outfits I owned, and my old car intentionally hidden at least 6 blocks away, I told anyone who would
listen that Life Coaching is what I do. I made several new and wonderful connections at these events, yet I craved
a deeper connection. I wanted to know more than their line of work. I was eager to know what was really important
to them...
While my learning curve wasn’t easy or particularly dreamy, these years later, I have the privilege and honor to
regularly connect with people about their deepest desires, and I share how to bridge the gap between them and
their dreams to create a life they love!
Are you ready to celebrate what’s possible for YOUR life?
I want you to believe in the unique possibilities for your life, regardless of your present
circumstances. The Dream Party® gives you a phenomenal opportunity to celebrate and awaken to those
possibilities while connecting with the support and expertise for success – all in one transformational evening!
“Imagination is a preview of life’s coming attractions.” ~ Einstein
My intuition-over-logic vacation...
While going on vacation made no logical sense whatsoever, my intuition said yes. Boldly following intuition over
logic had been a common thread throughout my journey. So I figured, why stop now? ☺
On faith, I chose intuition as I have done so many times in my life. And, what transpired over those 10 days in the
Nevada desert was deeply transformative, joyful, challenging, cathartic, and most of all, profoundly HEART-OPENING.
A sense of expansiveness, timelessness, and present-moment focus gently pervaded my experience with such depth
that the inevitable end of the festival and return home wasn’t given any thought or concern. I was just blissfully
“in the experience”. And, what a gift that was!
A personal turning point...
When the time came to return home, I did so happily, savoring the heart-space that I was in. However,
once home, things changed quickly and dramatically. I found myself crying in parking lots simply because they
were parking lots. I was suddenly claustrophobic in cars and even my own living room. I was also acutely aware
of and effected by the sadness of strangers passing by. In my attempts to describe the experience to friends, I
used phrases like “I feel suffocated,” “I’ve expanded,” and “I no longer fit my life.”
A life coach who no longer fits her life is not exactly a recipe for success...
When weeks passed and these symptoms showed no signs of letting up, I knew something had to change. I had all but decided to sell my house and buy
a one-way ticket anywhere to begin a nomadic lifestyle. Frustrated, I professed, “There just aren’t enough places to
dream here!” I realized that I desperately needed more room to nurture, unabashedly explore, and uncover my
biggest, boldest life dreams and goals.
Friends who had been trying to persuade me to stay, reluctantly surrendered to my deep need for change, and
instead, offered to help me pack. I had narrowed my options down to two choices: fight or flight… Either create
what I longed for, or travel the world looking for it.
Out of a personal challenge, came an event like no other...
Alas, The Dream Party® was born over the next 48 hours, thankfully faster than I could pack!
It came to me in chunks. I was awakened in the night by “ideas” and found myself at the kitchen table, writing
them down, while still half-asleep. The Party was “an excuse for me to stay,” I said. While I suspected that others
felt a need for such an event, I was admittedly doing it because I needed it. My efforts paid off when over 100
people attended the first Dream Party and thank you’s and testimonials followed.
Networking a la dream....
“Asking people ‘what’s your dream” really gets to the heart of what people want in their life.
It’s a whole new way to make connections. It’s magical.” ~ Tara Sage Steeves, Create Your Life! LLC
There are no shortage of joyful connections at this event!
The Dream Party provides a space for you to connect with others through a celebration of dreams and passions. You’ll
find that people share the joy of their true desires, and from there it’s natural and easy to connect with the on-site
resources provided by our Dream Team, there to fully support and be in service to you.
I am proud to say, that since its inception, The Dream Party has connected with the hearts and minds of hundreds -
soon to be thousands – allowing them to explore, expand, nurture and celebrate their dreams!
“I love the energy that dreams and dreamers exude! This is definitely NOT your average networking event; more
like the feeling that bubbles up on the ferryboat ride from the parking lot to the entrance of the Magic Kingdom - you
KNOW something magical is moments away!" ~ Lisa Almieda, Planit Productions
“The Dream Party was such a treat! From the premise to the décor, to the agenda, to the mix of attendees – there
was nothing stale about this event. It really got you focused on one simple and very personal thing: ‘What’s Your
Dream?’ Finally, a networking event that isn’t about your business’ purpose or sales goals, but about individuals –
their desires and aspirations. What a delightful and refreshing change!” ~ Michelle Girasole of The Sassy Ladies
Oh, by the way...
A question we get asked a lot is: Is The Dream Party just for women?
And the answer is, absolutely not! Dreaming is for everyone, and so is The Dream Party!
"A great place to meet creative, interesting people! I really loved it."
~ Mike M.
"Hurray to a networking event tied to your own passion - of living
your dreams! The event was very creative with a time machine to step into to write your future self a letter that
Create Your Life! actually mails to participants, and the 'footbridge to the future' which serves as a metaphor for
stepping not only into the future but into participating in one's dream for their life!" ~ Amy S.
“Tara’s Dream Party was a great opportunity to have fun while
meeting new and different people from the local business community. I’ll look forward to next year’s event. Thanks
again for all of your efforts Tara!!” ~ Justin A.

“The Dream Party is an inspirational, profound and exceedingly FUN event that has had a profound effect on my life
and I've seen other people equally moved and transformed by it...To be in a room full of over 100 people who are
all supporting each other's dreams is magical. Beautiful. Transformative....I love Tara Sage Steeves' inspiration--that
we don't have enough places to dream and encourage dreaming. Just think what the world would be like if everyone
attended Dream Parties once a year!” ~ Lisa Tener, book coach
“Tara, your Dream Party was both awesome and awe-inspiring…
literally. Going through the exercise of not only stating my future but also being it at your party really made the future
real. The only difference between our dreams and our reality is experience. Being given the opportunity of having the
experience of being my dream was very powerful. The only thing cooler than The Dream Party is you for doing it.
Thanks for you hard work and I look forward to next years event.” ~ Jeff Deckman of Capability Accelerators
“When you follow your bliss...doors will open where you would not have thought there would be doors, and
where there wouldn’t be a door for anyone else.” ~ Joseph Campbell
How in the world...?
In the middle of the night I had received the inspiration for this event – but not the revenue. While I knew that I had
to figure out a way to bring the event to fruition, I had no idea HOW I was going to do it!
I was totally intimidated by the prospect, but I knew this much: I needed a venue, and I needed a time machine.
That’s right...a time machine. The first ‘help wanted’ ad I ever placed for my business was on Craigslist entitled:
“Time Machine artist needed” and within just 48 hours I received over 40 responses from artists eager for the job!
I knew The Dream Party deserved a special location, despite my budget. With clear vision, focused persistence, and
no shortage of fear, I managed to negotiate for a stunningly beautiful, expansive venue in downtown Providence after
convincing the management to “sponsor” the event and rent me the space for only $62 (a security guard fee).
You better believe that I surprised myself with this outcome! Proving, yet again, that when there’s a will, there’s a
way!
“If your dream wasn’t already real inside you, you couldn’t even dream it.” ~ Gloria Steinem
What if I don’t know what my dreams are?
Not a problem. In fact, add that to the many reasons to be there! The Dream Party helps not only with the dreams
you’re aware of, but it also helps to unlock, uncover, and awaken the sleeping dreams within you. Perhaps
in the past, you decided those dreams were unrealistic, silly – maybe even impossible? Well... they’re not.
“I attended the Dream Party with no dream, but after such a fun time
and speaking to people, my dreams started to surface and come alive. Thank you for such an event. Dream on!"
~ Jane W.
“Dreams unfold in stages and the beautiful thing about the
Dream Party is that it helps people no matter where they are in the process. Whether someone is just figuring out
their dreams or about to birth them into reality, there are life-changing takeaways at the Dream Party. I am in the
early stage of my dreaming process, but I left the party more encouraged and empowered than before and I now
have some incredible tools to forge forward.” ~ Jennifer Madura
"The Dream Party was a fun and innovative way to step in one's
future shoes. I've been working on growing my own business, and it was great to talk about my business as if it was
five years down the road - highly motivating! The Dream Party created a fun, energetic way to connect and network
with others." ~ Amanda B.

“The Dream Party is the ultimate live-your-dreams experience.
Imagine a night where like minds get together to act, talk and dress the part of their dreams. It is a safe environment
where all encourage and support one another. Judgment set aside and no “shoulds” or “impossibles” allowed.” ~ Carmen Smith, Newport, RI
"At first dreams seem impossible, then improbable, and eventually inevitable." Christopher Reeve
It’s fantasmagorical! (That’s my new favorite word.)
Based on the success of four Rhode Island Dream Parties (2006, 2007, 2008, and 2009), The Dream Party has
received some much-deserved attention!
It has been written about in The National Networker, Aspire Magazine, and highlighted in several radio broadcasts.
Tara and The Dream Party are also highlighted in Chapter One (appropriately entitled “Dreaming”) of The Sassy
Ladies' award-winning book: Toolkit for Start-Up Businesses.
What began as a personal mission has organically evolved into the promise of this fantasmagorical event reaching a
national audience!
Fantasmagorical: A mixture of the words, 'fantastic', 'amazing' and 'magical' all in one juicy little package. It's reserved for when ordinary, boring words just won't cut it. (Urban Dictionary)

"Although a 'comfort zone' may feel good, it can stop growth and
adventure in your life. The Dream Party shows us the limitless possibilities in our lives - if we allow ourselves to
follow the dreams in our hearts.” ~ Helen S.
“The Dream Party was not only a great party, but an eye-opener for
my current and future self. All the food, music, and guests were there for the purpose of fun and support- I found
exactly what I needed to begin work on several of my dreams (for home, job, and personal success). I loved dressing
up as my "five years from now" self and seeing what other costumes and dreams were in the room. All the activities,
and even the location and decorations, were for the purpose of making dreams come true- and that's where I'm
headed thanks to the Dream Party!” ~ Joanna M
