Women of Influence was created in January
2007 after I returned from a life changing
seminar in Texas. I came home challenged,
inspired, and determined to live the life I was
destined to live and help others to do the same.
My desire is for women from all walks of life of
every age, race and nationality to join us on this
journey to live a life of passion and purpose. I
want women to know how significant they are
and the influence they can have whether they
are college students, moms at home raising
their children, women juggling their career and
home life or retired empty nesters. As long as
we have breath on this earth, we can make a
difference.
I began with a weekly meeting with some
business associates to discuss our growing
businesses and how to keep our family a priority
without pulling our hair out. Women wear so
many hats these days and it’s hard to balance it
all, but I’m determined to live my life with passion
and purpose and have fun in the process.
As a result of one of my home meetings, we
decided to have monthly luncheons at the UF
Hilton and invite a guest speaker once a month
to discuss relevant topics for women regarding
our careers, relationships, health and
communities. Past speakers include County
Commissioner Cynthia Chestnut, Deborah
Minck, VP of Tioga Realty, and Carolynn
Buchanan, owner of Temp Force.
In addition to the luncheons, Women of Influence looks for ways
to reach out to the community. Last Christmas, we sponsored a
single mom and four children through Gainesville Community
Ministries and gave them a Christmas to remember which
included presents for all and a tree with trimmings.
I have a big vision to help our community but I know I can’t do it
alone I was once given advice not to despise small beginnings.
I’m thankful for all the women who believe in and support the
vision in my heart. As our organization grows, we look forward
to helping our community in greater ways.

The Miss America Pageant started in Atlantic City in 1921. You may
think that this pageant is all about beauty but it is about so much more.
These girls must have talent, raise money for charitable organizations
and of course possess great personalities. The Miss America Organization
is one of the nation’s leading achievement programs and the world’s largest
provider of scholarship assistance for young women. Last year, the Miss
America Organization and its state and local organizations made available
more than $45 million in cash and scholarship assistance.

An Embarassing Problem That Affects Many Women |
|
It starts with a question.
A question about something unwanted yet life changing.
It can simply be a “WHY?”
It might be a working mother asking herself why she gets up 4-5 times
every night, which significantly affects her ability to function effectively
at work. Or it could be a grandmother wondering why she can’t pick up
her grandchildren without urinary leakage. Whatever the case may be,
the 17 million women that are affected by bladder control have a solution
for this problem – and for more than 80 percent it can be fixed
without surgery |
