Member Spotlight:

Be inspired by the latest Member Spotlight. Each month, we allow one of our fabulous members the opportunity to share something special about themselves. It’s a great way to get to know them better and be inspired by their wisdom and experience. We always look forward to seeing them truly shine in the Member Spotlight! Member Spotlight Speaker won’t be featured every meeting.

The Dream Bowl & WOVI Moments:

Every meeting includes an opportunity to share WOVI Moments, your accomplishments and Mentor-to-Mentee Moments. This is your chance to thank your mentor, appreciate your mentee, share a recent success or accomplishment, also known as “bragging rights or shining star moments,” or to share an experience you have had because you are a member of WOVI. Members and guests alike are encouraged to participate.

MentoRing™ Exercise

Each WOVI Chapter meeting allows for time to reflect or work on the topic of the meeting. It is a trademarked exercise created by our Co-Founder Pauline Shirley and instigated at the very first WOVI public meeting. It is unique and beneficial in that each individual provides her comments or answers to a relevant question, then receives immediate input and feedback from the meeting participants. It happens in small groups so wisdom and knowledge are both gained and imparted personally. The results can be life-changing!

New Member Orientation:

To learn more about WOVI and the value of membership, attend the Member and Mentor Orientation prior to the meeting. If you plan to attend the orientation, please let us know when you RSVP by indicating “YES” that you are also attending the orientation!

    What members say about WOVI!

    WOVI has given me the confidence and accountability I need to pursue my dreams. Also, WOVI has given me wonderful friends.
    Nancy Starr-Cassidy- WOVI Member
    “The impact that WOVI has had on me since I became a member is huge. When I first became a member of WOVI, I was in the middle of some personal challenges. Going to the meetings helped me to move through these challenges by focusing on the topics that our meetings presented and stepping out of me and being of a help to someone else. I also developed deeper friendships with my already friends and cultivated new bonds of friendship with my new friends. By being in various leadership roles in our chapter, I am a better leader by just being in the presence of other leaders on the board. Learning and putting into practice leadership skills. As I stepped out of the chapter and went to the WOVI conference, I met other entrepreneurial minded women that have presented me with new and fresh ideas to increase my various streams of income. Therefore, making WOVI, an instrument of influence and of affluence.
    Dr. Ann- WOVI Member
    What I like about WOVI best of all is the mentoring. Being mentored by others has led me to do things I never thought of or never would have thought possible, if I had thought of them. Being involved in a nonprofit from the very beginning has helped me in so many ways. I have learned about mission and vision. I have changed my career path at the encouragement and enlightenment from my fellow WOVI members. I have created, agonized over, and learned to live with budgets! My salary has increased by 71% since becoming a member of WOVI. I have become a better encourager and delegator. I have become a leader.
    Janet Wilemon- WOVI Member
    WOVI has provided me with the opportunity to become more creative and to be part of a group that is genuinely interested in empowering women. It gives me a unique insight into how to empower women outside the WOVI group, and understand at a much deeper level my influence on other women in my life.
    Ruth White- WOVI Member
    Nervous and feeling vulnerable as I began to experience the power of the WOVI trademark Mento-Ring exercise, I received such important information from this educator , I was so uplifted I joined the very next meeting!
    Krista Hartman- WOVI Member
    When I first came to WOVI I had a book I wanted to write but thought I lacked what it took to get it done. I found WOVI women to be dynamic, accomplished, down-to-earth, supportive, and uplifting. I was impressed by the caliber of woman that was attracted to this group and that made me step up my game. The support I received from people I barely knew helped me to gain confidence in my abilities to tackle this book despite the fact that I was a fresh-out-of-the-closet writer. I started to strive for goals that I had long been afraid to attempt. In the WritersRing, we have created a safe, dynamic, supportive environment that enables writers to open their hearts and minds, hone their craft, and find and explore their true voice. It is often the first place guests and new members have read their work aloud. With the support of the WritersRing, I forged ahead with my book and it will be out in May 2014. The title is The Global Red Circle – Standing in Truth, Unleashing Our Most Powerful Selves. I have even retired from my business of ten years to live my dream and be a full-time writer and a build a singing and songwriting career. WOVI women are the best!
    Kim Andrews- WOVI Member
    WOVI has given me the confidence and accountability I need to pursue my dreams. Also, WOVI has given me wonderful friends.
    Sarah Baden- WOVI Member
    WOVI women are so supportive. Meetings are rich in generosity, approval and opportunity.
    Valery Guignon- WOVI Member
    WOVI is the one thing my energy drives toward every month – it is unique among women’s organizations.
    Frances Pelley- WOVI Member
    WOVI women are absolutely the most authentic, loving, supportive and fun women. I love that we have mentors for growth, support, and encouragement through new projects.
    Lynda Rhodes- WOVI Member
