What we’re about
To create a space where professional women can talk through issues, share experiences and ideas, and form lasting connections.
HOW IT ALL BEGAN
In 2007, the Women’s Exchange of Washtenaw (WXW) was developed for women in business in Southeastern Michigan and the region. WXW fills a unique and shared need as a women’s business group. It’s a collaborative, supportive environment where we can share our struggles and our triumphs.
We seek to end the isolation many women business leaders feel by providing a relaxed and confidential environment where we can help each other and improve our organizations. Additionally, we wish to provide an alternative to standard networking meetings where attendees have no input on the presentation, learn very little, and make few decent connections.
HOW WXW IS DIFFERENT
INTERACTIVE – We’ve all attended too many events where a speaker or panel talks at the audience. WXW promises that event attendees will actually talk through specific issues, share stories and struggles, and work together to find solutions.
OPEN – At WXW events, attendees choose the direction and content of the conversation. Questions, issues, ideas – all are encouraged in an open and confidential environment.
FUN – As working women with hectic lives, we may often feel overwhelmed or isolated. WXW is a place where we can have FUN, connect, laugh, talk through issues, and be ourselves.

See Your Vision Workshop
Venue by 4M, 1919 S Industrial Hwy, Ann Arbor, MI, USAttend the "See Your Vision Workshop" on Thursday, January 15th with fellow WXW women colleagues, friends, and new acquaintances, and come away with your personalized vision board that encapsulates your big goals for 2026!
You choose what to focus on: business, life, health, or relationship goals! Ronisa Clark and Ginger Liemohn will act as your guides on this journey. Choose between a physical handmade vision board (necessary items will be provided however, feel free to bring your own clippings and tools) or digital vision board (in preparation, download the free version of Canva to your own personal device).
Join in small group discussions with fellow WXW-ers to make a visually-appealing motivational "board" that you see everyday. Get momentum going towards those New Year's Resolutions and get a fresh start on old goals!
Each participant will leave with a personal vision board (analog and/or digital). Instruction and materials on creating an analog and/or digital version will be offered. If opting for the digital version, please bring your own device (phone and iPads are ideal) and to download Canva on that device before the event. If opting for the analog version, participants are welcome but not required, to bring images that fit their personal vision for 2026.
