What is W.H.E.E.L.?
Women Helping to Educate & Enhance Life is a volunteer organization designed to provide women with tools and resources to help make impactful changes in their lives.
What made you create the WHEEL?
When I went through my divorce in 2015, I recognized there was a void for a group that encompasses all aspects of change in a woman's life. Even as a successful businesswoman with a finance background I was overwhelmed with the enormity of change I faced. In-order to survive I created my own support group of professional women. Merely through trial and error I pieced together a “Super-Women” transition team that helped me through my toughest days. In subsequent years after my divorce I realized that I was not the only woman seeking practical tools and education to help map out a new life.
Hence, the idea for W.H.E.E.L. (Women Helping to Educate & Enhance Life) was born.
What is WHEEL’s mission statement?
Our goal at W.H.E.E.L. is to help educate & empower women in transition by providing access to expert advice through networking and educational seminars. We have established a “Super-Women' panel of advisors to help set your wheel of change in motion. Whether you are getting divorced, planning to launch a new business, returning to work, saving for retirement, recently widowed, caring for elderly parents, looking for emotional guidance or seeking health advice – there is FREE advice for all at W.H.E.E.L.
What are the key spokes of the WHEEL?
There are eight core spokes of W.H.E.E.L. to help support & educate you on this journey called life:
Legal, Finance, Health, Career, Medical, Grief Management, Mental Health & Mindfulness.
Behind each spoke is an equally talented and well credentialed woman.
Who does WHEEL serve?
WHEEL serves women who are looking to make an impactful change in their lives.
Women often face unique obstacles that can affect their ability to achieve their life goals. Today, women have more responsibility for themselves and their families. So, it is critical that women know how to plan for their future. Our goal is to help women identify and prepare for life challenges that can include:
-
Longer life expectancies and financial independence
-
Unexpected obstacles, such as a job loss, divorce, death of a spouse, or single parenthood.
-
Role as primary breadwinners for their families and running their own businesses
-
Barriers to advancement in the workplace
-
Unique health care complications including chronic diseases and conditions—such as heart disease, cancer, and diabetes - the leading causes of death for women.
-
Mental health issues caused by factors like discrimination, trauma, and stressful life experiences. Hormonal issues, pregnancy, birth, and parenting stressors can also make women more susceptible to depression.
