We connect and inspire a vibrant community of women
At Inspire Me Women, we believe that when women are connected and inspired, they thrive personally, professionally, and within their communities.
Since 2018, Chris Korako and Margie Foster have created trusted spaces for women to connect, network, share knowledge, be informed and grow through carefully curated networking events, workshops, mentoring, and speaker series.
We believe in the power of stories, leadership, resilience, and real human connection. Our vision is simple: to connect women and inspire them to THRIVE.

Whether you’re seeking personal growth, professional insights, or just a circle of great like-minded women, you will find it here. Women are key contributors to economic, business, and community success. We invest our time in initiatives that support women.

Feedback on one some of our Inspire Me Women speakers

Inspire Me Mentors
A common connection and genuine interest in
someone who you relate to can be the first & best step in finding a mentor
Christine & Margie have mentored many people of all ages and life stages. They particularly relate to women who are looking for professional or personal mentoring, women re-evaluating where they are at, women re-entering the workforce, women looking for extra support to navigate their pathway.
A game changer in mentoring is allowing you to see your own potential and then inspire and motivate you to reach your goals & life pathway. As mentors we allow you to see your potential and your pathway to greater success in work and in life.
You will form a close bond with one of us, or all of us, as we provide our knowledge and experience with you, to expand your professional and personal development.
