Hello & Thanks so much for visiting WAHWomen.com! My name is Misty. I started my first home business (part-time) in March of 2006. I had no idea how much fun I would have and that it would lead me to where I am today! When I started my own home business, I began looking for sites/groups that I could join to network, find friends, resources, promote my biz and learn how to successfully build a business. There are so many awesome WAHM, SAHM websites/groups (we even have owners of some of these great sites on our yahoo group). There was just one little thing though- I'm not a mom. The owners have been so sweet to let me and other single or not yet moms join their groups/sites. I have met so many fabulous ladies through these sites/groups and am proud to be a part of them! I will probably be WAHM one day too! After some encouragement from my new online friends, I started a yahoo group- WAHW in late May 2006. I really wanted a group- a place geared more towards women. After all that's what we are first & foremost. Women! We are the resilient ones that can handle a full-time job, one (or many more than one) home business(es), helping pay/paying the bills, taking care of ourselves & our families, all that life throws at us and keep it all together! That's why I love Rosie! (the "We Can Do It" Woman on the picture on our group's home page & top right). Maybe you aren't familiar with this woman's history. (Per Wikipedia's explanation) Rosie the Riveter is a cultural icon of the United States, representing the six million women who manned the manufacturing plants which produced munitions and material during World War II while the men (who traditionally performed this work) were off fighting the war. This "character" is now considered a feminist icon in the US, and a herald of women's economic power to come. (To learn more about Rosie, visit : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosie_the_Riveter ) Rosie represents me, you & every woman that is working hard to turn dreams/possibilities into reality! We are doing what we have to do to have the lives we want, doing the things we love (and sometimes hate) to have what we know we deserve- stability, security, happiness & success for ourselves & our families! As the yahoo group began to quickly grow, I was inspired to also create a website geared towards WAHWomen. I wanted a place where all of us WAHWomen can come for information, resources, networking, promoting our businesses, sharing, interacting & making new friends- women to women! I also wanted a place where people could go to support & shop with WAHW. People have to buy items, gifts, supplies somewhere, let's encourage them to shop with us! Please share the WAHWomen Shoppes with your friends & family! My inspiration to create this website came partly from all the incredible WAHW that I have met & become friends with. I also have found so much enjoyment in this new world of online networking & in having my own home businesses. It is wonderful to be doing something you enjoy and to be able to share it with others! I hope you find this site helpful & enjoyable! Thanks to all you WAHWomen for your hard work, your faith & most of all your friendship! Many Blessings, Misty Kearns Owner WAHWomen.com (TM) admin@wahwomen.com 336-238-8272 12pm-8pm EST |
