One of the things I’m MOST proud of about Women Who WOW is that we’re not “member hungry.” From the very beginning, we grew by print invite ONLY. We did this so that we’d attract ONLY the best. Our first meeting, I would have been JUST FINE if only 5 women showed up. It wasn’t

This is for every woman who ever felt she was born and built for MORE. This is for every woman who FOLLOWED THE RULES, dutifully, but was disappointed with the results. This is for every woman who KNOWS she’s a square peg in a round hole. This is for every woman who LOVES her man
