Smart Women's Coaching Launches Café

New virtual community connects women in transition.

Commerce Township, Michigan (PRWEB) July 14, 2007 -- Women who find themselves in transition or are in the process of reinventing themselves have a new option for support, advice and resources. Smart Women's Coaching founders, Katana Abbott and Jill Jordan, have initiated an online women's collaborative, focused on connecting women on a global basis.

Abbott and Jordan, backed by an experienced advisory board from across the U.S. and Canada, reveal their successful secrets of collaborating, sharing and co-promoting--the exact opposite of the traditional competition between professional women.

"As women advance in their careers and move up the corporate ladder, they are often reluctant to share, with other women, the tips or secrets that got them there because they may be threatened by the fact that there are too few seats at the top for women," says Jordan.

Last February, the long-time friends began discussing how to create a virtual café where women could connect with some of the top coaches, consultants and programs in the world while learning to live with purpose, passion and prosperity. Within four months, they had created an on-line community with 20 advisory board members who also serve as contributing experts on their website. Smart Women's Café was born.

For $19/month, Café members are part of a network and have access to the monthly Café Chat™ group coaching call, Idea Lab on-line forum, "Ask the Expert" email coaching, Smart Women Talk™ Podcasts, a complete library of e-books and articles, and live events across the globe.

The Café is both a business to business network and an educational and networking community where women can find support to determine their direction and learn what steps they can take to achieve their goals. Abbott advises, "Learn to network with your colleagues and don't be afraid to share your ideas. The co-promotions and joint ventures that are forming from these relationships wouldn't have happened without this kind of open forum."
