Call Me the Historian

Claudia Lewis, Full Circle Art Studio I joined the Business Women’s Connection in 1990 when I opened my first business at age 34. I was looking for an inexpensive way to get started by connecting and forming friendships with other like-minded women. Over the past 28 years, I estimate I have had the pleasure of […]

My BWC family

Karelle Scharff, Best Mac Solutions/Peak to Peak Websites I was one of the founding members of the original Allie Lassen Leads Club, back in the early 90s, when I was a professional photographer. I had a hiatus for a few years, while I worked in Estes Park and raised a child. When my job came […]

What does BWC mean to me?

Ginger Estes, Stage Right Home Staging I was looking for a group of women to join soon after I started my Pampered Chef business. I didn’t really know what networking was all about.

“Connection” Is The Key

Holly Bea-Weaver, Word Weaver & Co. When my husband and I first moved to Boulder from Northern Colorado, we didn’t know anyone who lived here.

The Value of the Business Women’s Connection

The smart, successful, and supportive women in this group bring great ideas to the […]

BWC

Michelle Burnham, Carefree Travel I first learned about Business Women’s Connection from my mom. She was an original member and occasionally I would fill in for her when she was out of town. Fast forward to over 20 + years later and another member Claudia L. called me and asked if I would come to […]

What is Art For?

“Art is not a thing; it is a way.”   ~Elbert Hubbard Imagine a wedding. The bride wears a special dress. Her bridesmaids wear gowns and carry flower bouquets. The groom wears a suit or a tuxedo as do his groomsmen. The guests dress up too, but are careful not to draw attention away from the […]

Are You Overwhelmed By The Idea of Blogging?

It’s pretty common knowledge that blogging can help your business. But when I talk to small business owners about blogging, I hear the same response. “I know I should blog, but I just don’t seem to get around to it.” Or, “I really don’t know what to say.” Many don’t feel confident in their writing […]
