HAPPY BIRTHDAY WOMEN'S OUTLOOK ...
5 YEARS IN OCTOBER OF 2011!
Our mission is simple: To provide women with information that educates, enlightens, and empowers, and to provide an effective advertising medium to commmunity businesses.
WHO ARE WE?
We are an independently published magazine owned by Youngblood Media Group, Inc. Women's OutLook and Women's EXPO of SWFL were founded by Diana Donlon, a former teacher, and award-winning children's author originally from Grand Rapids, Michigan. Diana traded the long winters for full-time sunshine and has lived in Englewood, Florida since June of 2005. She remains the driving force behind our mission.
Since we launched our first issue in October of 2006 you have given us much feedback, and we thank you!
