TheLink Inspirations

 About The Link
Founded in March 2004 In Portland, OR, The Link For Women was created to fill a void. Through our personal and professional experiences, the following issues run true.

  • Women want to connect with other stimulating women who provide insights through the successes and roadblocks of their lives.
  • There are fantastic women from all walks of life who deserve to be spotlighted as role models...and we want to learn from them.
  • It is difficult to search for experts to acquire information for seamless change, knowledge and personal growth.
  • In a safe, supportive atmosphere, women are more likely to investigate new ideas and topics.
  • There is no "Old Girls" network and women crave mentorship.

Webster's defines link as 'anything serving to connect one part or thing with another; a bond or tie.'  Our tag line, 'Connecting Women' gives further definition to our mission of connecting women through knowledge and experience, exploring the textures of their lives.

The Link brings the expertise and experience of many accomplished and savvy women together – it is phenomenal to see what affect this group has in the world!!
