Linda Rendleman Where are the Women?

Where are the Women? There’s something about walking into a car dealership. There’s something about the air in there. I’ve noticed it for years. I have this kind of “out of place” feeling when I step inside one of these halls that smell of rubber and after shave and ooze testosterone. It’s a car dealership. I drive a car. I have driven a car since I was sixteen. Why do I feel so out of place here? Is it because I don’t understand cars at all? I know what color I like. I know cars need g… Continue

Laina Molaski Join the Movement!

Chiczofrenic – intentionally crazy…no disclaimers Many women drive themselves crazy, sometimes intentionally, trying to be all they can be. Women fight to have all they desire: strong love relationships, valuable friendships, amazing children, well-kept homes, successful careers, realized dreams, healthy bodies, and the list goes on. But at some point along the journey, while trying to accomplish all of our pursuits, we tend to go a little nuts. Some more than others; some longer than others;… Continue

Linda S Fitzgerald Women on the Weekend - "Women, Is It Okay?"

All you have to do is watch a little TV - news or otherwise - to realize that some women in the public limelight are not getting a fair shake! I heard bits n' pieces of a discussion last evening on the treatment of women in the national political scene. The folks were discussing whether Hillary Clinton had gotten the same negative press as Sarah Palin is enjoying. Consensus of thought was that both women have gotten negative press at points in their political career. Let me say RIGHT UP FRONT -… Continue

Kendal R. Miller Pursuit of perfect hair--a painful process

I am contemplating a major decision. My hair has got to the point that I either have to cut it short, or begin using embellishments to keep it under control while it grows to a more manageable length. I have an opinion about hair accessories--they are modern day objects of torture. Constructed out of plastic, elastic and metal, they are purchased by millions of unsuspecting individuals who anticipate using them for either function or decoration. In the pursuit of the perfect widget to pull b… Continue

Genie Goykhberg Top 10 Quran quotes every woman MUST SEE before she decides to say "Yes"

The next time you hear someone claim that Islam affords equal rights and protections to women, pull out the “Top 10” list below. You might want to add that in one of the hadith (the sayings and traditions of Mohammed), Mohammed claimed he was given a look into hell and saw that it was filled mostly with women because they were ungrateful to their husbands (Sahih Bukhari 2,18,61). http://infidelsarecool.com/2008/01/11/top-10-quran-quotes-every-woman-must-see/ Tell every woman you know about th… Continue

Lynn Zettler Do you go to work in DRAG?

Just wondering. I found this great blog and this post really struck a chord. How many people go to work to be one person and are really someone else outside of work? Moreover, how many times do we see others that way? I have to admit that I do go to work in Drag sometimes, but I will be more committed to putting the 'business drag' away and just be me no matter what. Continue

Kristen Horton Safety Tips for Women

Recently, when a female friend was followed from the interstate to her office, I was reminded of the need for women to remain aware of their surroundings - at all times. Over the years, I've compiled a list of safety tips for women- although the list is by no means complete, it's a start. Please feel free to add to it. Cars & Driving: • Don't put anything on your car with your name on it (i.e. personalized license plates). Putting your name where a would-be attacker can easily read i… Continue

Sage McGreen Women give Marketers a headache?

Are women fickle or do we adapt so fast your head hurts? A Marketweek article says women are giving marketers a headache. The recession is affecting women shoppers and the marketing migraine is to understand why. Macroshifting is why, but I’ll explain that later. My… Continue

Thanks to Smaller Indiana I've been able to boost that effectiveness to a whole new level. Last night the Women & Hi Tech Discussion Group meeting was hosted by the DocTrain Life Sciences conference.

Hazel "The Queen" Walker 4th Annual Women's Leadership Conference

I LOVE hanging out with strong, inspiring and motivated women. Women who make things happen and don't sit around waiting for something to happen. Women who inspire, teach, mentor, and dream. Today, I had the opportunity to be with some of these amazing women. Deb Taylor and Brooke Billingsly hosted a half day event for women leaders. I had the opportunity to meet and network with some women I did not know like Terri Austin, State Representative, and Joy Dumandan, WISH TV News Anchor, each shari… Continue

Joyce Boadt Inspired by BlogIN

Yesterday I had the good fortune to attend the Smaller Indiana BlogIN. I've been debating about whether it would make sense to have a separate blog on Smaller Indiana. I have another blog that I write for Women & Hi Tech and wondered what would be the benefit of putting the time into writing another. Obviously, I decided that it did make sense to have a Smaller Indiana blog. The Women & Hi Tech blog is focused on a specific topic each month. Because of this I sometimes feel a bit constr… Continue

Toni Deckers More Than Just Fresh Air

Dear Smoosiers, I have started a new blog in the effort of promoting self-esteem in women. A lot of women struggle with their self worth in some facet of their life. If women share their stories it will inspire other women to realize that they are "special, loved and someone to be proud of." Please take a few minutes to check out my new effort. And if any women would like to contribute their stories, please contact me. ----- A few years ago, I was on a service trip to Kentucky with my youth g… Continue
