Dear Lake County Women,
With heartfelt gratitude and admiration, I write to each and every one of you, the incredible women who form the heart and soul of Lake County Women Connect. Your presence and dedication have filled my life with purpose and joy as we strive to uplift and support one another on this journey we call life.
From the depths of my being, I have always been passionate about assisting women, recognizing the unique challenges we face daily. Witnessing the smiles and transformations as we help each other grow and improve our lives brings me an indescribable sense of fulfillment.
It feels as though it was just yesterday when the seeds of Lake County Women Connect were sown in 2021, with a profound vision of cultivating meaningful connections and cherished friendships within our beloved community. Since then, this journey has been graced by the presence of exceptional women like yourselves.
I offer my heartfelt appreciation to Mayra Alicea-Ramos and Denisse Bliss, who volunteered their time and talents to lead meetups and committees and manage our thriving social media page.
I also extend my deepest gratitude to Abbe Roberts and Diane Morphis Schlabig, who have wholeheartedly led and nurtured our LCWC Book Club, a beacon of wisdom and inspiration to all. And to each of you who have attended events, participated in activities, shared posts, left comments, or showed your support by liking our content, thank you for creating a vibrant and uplifting community.
In the presence of introverts who bravely find the courage to step into our events for the first time, I am reminded of the strength and resilience within each of us. Your presence has enriched our group, and your contributions have been awe-inspiring.
It warms my heart to see how we embrace newcomers, making them feel welcomed and cherished in our community. However, the reach of Lake County Women Connect has extended beyond our county’s borders, touching the hearts of women from other regions yearning for connections of their own.
The Future
That’s why my vision evolved into “The Bond Maker,” a platform that allows women from all over to connect on local and regional levels, uniting us in sisterhood across communities.
The triumph of Lake County Women Connect has ignited a spark within me to bring this same magic to other surrounding areas. I aspire to help more women flourish and transform their lives through these profound and empowering connections.
As we journey together, I encourage you to embrace each opportunity to connect, stepping beyond the confines of comfort zones and engaging in sometimes awkward but profoundly enriching conversations. Let us build a network of powerful, like-minded women, an unyielding support system that empowers, motivates, and inspires everyone.
Your unwavering dedication and the success of Lake County Women Connect have kindled a fire in me to extend this love and support to others. Thank you for being my inspiration and driving me to create more opportunities for women to forge strong bonds, stand tall and proud, and embrace the gift of community.
In the presence of the mighty women of Lake County, I am humbled and honored to be a part of this empowering community.
With boundless love and gratitude,
Sabrina, aka The Bond Maker
