If the list to the right is familiar to you, you need to join forces with Maine Women in Biz, Inc. Being a woman in business in the State of Maine can be challenging enough but having a family and responsiblilites compounds that challenge. Maine Women in Biz, Inc. was created by a group of women business-owners who believe that by networking and working with other like-minded persons (and organizations) together we can succeed! This organization is for women with already-established businesses and those looking to start one. We will provide you with the tools and resources to make your dreams come true.
"Women in particular need to keep an eye on their physical and mental health, because if we're scurrying to and from appointments and errands, we don't have a lot of time to take care of ourselves. We need to do a better job of putting ourselves higher on our own 'to-do' list." --Michelle Obama |
