Spend an hour over coffee with other women and you walk away from the conversation feeling invigorated and more connected. You listen, talk, laugh with empathy, and share a few good ideas. By the end, you’re recharged and most likely at least walking away with a few smart tips on how to approach the facets of your life a bit differently … or perhaps inspired to bring to life that idea that pops into your head from time to time, but never seems to have an outlet.

Our blog, Coffee Chat with a Thousand Wise Women, taps into this exchange of wisdom experienced by so many women. Women who have figured out ways to tweak their lives here and there and slowly but surely build the rich lives they want, not just the lives they’re “supposed” to live as a wife, mother and/or career professional.

Elaine and I, friends for 20 years, want to give life to this thesis of ours. We want to share our daily dilemmas with you, share those nuggets of wisdom, our “ah ahs”, that make managing life so much simpler or richer, and help inspire a community of women to rediscover themselves, their passions, and navigate the day to day with more ease. And of course, this cannot be successful without you – the Wise Women – wise because you share your discoveries and insights with us and others, so we can all recharge … breathe new life into our days … feel sparks of excitement.

Coffee Chat with a Thousand Wise Women will turn your day-dreaming into doing. It’s like oxygen for the soul.
