Essential Leadership

Nicki Anderson embodies this issue. She is a woman empowered. Nicki tells us her empowerment is from being stuck in her toddler brain of being chronically curious and listening to herself. “When your intuition kicks in and you have people telling you not to go down an unknown path, trust yourself to go forward and own your success. Embrace the curiosity!” Nicki’s curiosity has taken her down many different paths: she has been a stay-at-home mom, a business owner, the Chamber of Commerce CEO, a published writer, and currently, a university program director.

How Can I Help You with Date Night?

I am a USA Today Bestselling Romance Author who is also a contributing writer with Main & Luxe. Outside of magazine assignments, I spend my days writing spicy happily-ever-afters. But I am strategic about each plot. My characters don’t find their way to each other because of pure luck. It’s careful planning and a puzzle board of ideas and plots. There’s angst, fighting, push back, and heated tension.

Home Organization: Declutter Life

In fact, three of the best-rated home makeover shows on TV are “Get Organized with the Home Edit” and “Tidying Up with Marie Kondo” on Netflix and “Hot Mess House” on HGTV. From racks to store sporting equipment and yard equipment in the garage (baseball bats, hockey sticks, rakes, shovels, etc.) to shelves and bins to compartmentalize the pantry (soup cans, spices, extra paper towels, etc.), the opportunities in home organization seem limited only by the imagination. Studies show it’s good for your brain, stress levels, and productivity. De-cluttering and organizing are hot.

She Sheds – Make Your Own Space

Today’s woman takes on many roles in society, at home, and in the workplace. We are busy. We are multitaskers. And at times, we need an escape. And I’m not talking about the bathrooms or closets we’ve all retreated to in order to get a brief moment of peace and quiet. Rather, these should be spaces that allow for devoted work, relaxation, or even play. Enter the she shed.

1st Donor – Naperville Philanthropy

America in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries did not afford most women with individual rights…however, things were changing. Those who were strong-willed, opinionated, and determined not to let their gender limit them were beginning to gain strength. Caroline Martin Mitchell was among them. She was the grandchild of Scotch immigrants, a business leader, and a philanthropist, who ultimately determined the placemaking for what is today the fourth largest city in Illinois.
