Our goal in creating this website was to provide information and support to other women. What better way to do this than provide a platform for women we know to showcase their ideas, knowledge and businesses.
Please help us lean in and provide support to one another.
We are pleased to welcome another guest Author this week- Jennifer Ehrlich
Jenn is a Maryland native living with her husband, senior dog and guinea pig, and is happy to have her college-student daughter and college-bound son home for the summer. Jenn has worked as a marketing and advertising professional, freelance copywriter, taste tester and church lady, but she is actively reworking the manuscript for the next chapter in her life. She aspires to live more creatively, consciously and intentionally as she uncovers the path to her higher purpose in this life. The #5 item on her bucket list is to spin the wheel and win big money as a contestant on Wheel of Fortune.
Our first guest author:
Susan is a trained Life Coach actively working towards creating space for the expression of her authentic voice through writing and meaningful connections with others.
She lives in Maryland with her husband and three children where she delights in her roles as cheerleader, coach and encourager and loves to travel, bike ride, take scenic walks and stand-up paddleboard with her family.
Susan believes genuine connection with others is her sacred work and she dreams of using writing to synthesize her unique experience and perspective to help others find their own nuggets of truth, hope and healing wisdom that may be employed in their journeys to experiencing the best in themselves. Susan strives for her writing to reflect the truth, humor and wisdom that she sees in the world as informed by her core perspective that not only are we all deeply connected but, more importantly, we are more the same than we are different.
Susan hopes to one day realize her dream of becoming a published author.

It’s In the Genes, Find Out How They Could Save a Life
Jennifer was featured in a news story about her new book about breast cancer and the importance of genetic testing. It could save a life.
You Can’t Change Your Genes, But You Can Change What You Do About Them
I’m a breast cancer survivor.
I feel almost guilty putting those words out there, because I never had to undergo chemo or radiation. In fact, I didn’t even know I HAD cancer in my body until AFTER I was recovering from what was a preventive or prophylactic bilateral mastectomy.
Proof
Today I was all up in my feelings, stuck in a troubled headspace exacerbated by a compromised health space, having late last week ended my two and a half year streak of being Covid-free with the emergence of that dastardly subversive second line on the rapid test stick.
We’re on the Same Team
It’s a fundamental human need – belongingness. The desire to be accepted by our peers isn’t something we leave behind with our school days. Start a new job and you have to prove yourself from scratch with a new set of people. They don’t know you, or your sense of humor, or your capabilities, and you don’t know them. Will I fit in? Will they like me? Will I like them? Will they pick teams and I’ll be left standing there like so-and-so, eyes to the ground with cheeks aflame?
Adventures in Water Aerobics
The first time Ellen invited me to see her dollhouse I was caught off guard. We had met only forty-five minutes prior as I was descending the steps to my first water aerobics class.
