"Women at Work, Life Happens"
Love love this book. I have always loved Gloria Vanderbilt; her strength, her wisdom, her elegance and her beauty. This is a great book to read over Thanksgiving weekend, her life was filled with wealth but also so much heartache. We should all feel truly blessed for what we have been given.

Networking for business
I want to network with local women who are invested in supporting one another, and that’s why I joined! Moya Meckel/North Bay-At Aesthetics
About me:
I am a single mom of a 23 year old, 2 rescue dogs. I currently live in Sonoma, am an avid reader and love fashion and everything outdoors.
I founded MWAW 5 years ago as I have always loved working with and supporting women. I believe that by working together we can thrive not survive, live our best life and be successful-together.
We have many fabulous networking groups in Marin but I wanted (needed) a group that connected on another level. I want to be serious about building businesses and offering support while also enjoying our time together. No boring meetings!
I am a hugger (when we can) passionate about making and keeping connections, and driven for success. If that sounds like something you'd be interested in, join us and share your stories with us.
Hugs,
Karen

Active Campaign
I was once told if you are not using a CRM you are losing sales! After trying several different CRM's I went with Active Campaign for the functionality and the price!
