Launched January 2015

If you've been looking for a place where women genuinely support one another, celebrate each other's successes, and build real relationships, you might have just found it.

Polka Dot Powerhouse is a community of women from all walks of life. Our members include business owners, professionals, retirees, creatives, public servants, stay-at-home moms, women navigating life transitions, and plenty of women who simply wanted to meet good people and be part of something positive.

What brings us together isn't what we do for a living, instead it's how we show up for one another. We believe in connection over competition, collaboration over comparison, and creating a space where women can feel encouraged, supported, and valued.

What You’ll Find Here:

  • Genuine Relationships: The women you meet here won't just collect your business card and move on. They celebrate your wins, check in on you when life gets hard, and often become friends beyond the walls of our monthly meetings.

  • Encouragement and Support: Whether you're growing a business, building a career, starting over, settling into a new community, or simply looking for your people, you'll find women who are ready to cheer you on.

  • A Place to Belong: This isn't “traditional networking”. There are no awkward sales pitches or pressure-filled conversations. Nutshell: Real women building real relationships.

  • Collaboration: We believe there is room for everyone to succeed. That's why our members love sharing ideas, resources, opportunities, and connections whenever they can.

  • A Community That Goes Beyond Your Chapter: As a member of Polka Dot Powerhouse, you're connected to thousands of women across the globe. Whether you're traveling, relocating, looking for resources, or simply expanding your network, those connections are there for you.

UPCOMING SPEAKER

Aurora Zarate

Topic: Finding the Roar Within

What you will walk away with:

Set a Freedom Date: Choose a deadline to make a change. Don’t wait for the “perfect time.” Create one.

Follow the Whispers: That small, quiet idea you keep brushing off might be your next chapter trying to speak.

Take Messy Action: You don’t need to know the full plan — just take the first step. Clarity lives in motion.

About our Speaker: For five years, Aurora worked alongside her husband in his cleaning business and absolutely hated it. Finding the Roar Within is the story of how she gave herself a freedom date, followed a tiny whisper of curiosity, and discovered that clarity doesn't come before action. It comes from it.

Visiting as a Guest

We love meeting new faces.

You're welcome to attend one chapter meeting as a guest before deciding whether membership is right for you. It's the best way to experience the culture, meet our members, and see what Polka Dot Powerhouse is all about.

And if you know another woman who could use a little more connection and support in her life, invite her to come with you.

SPEAKER APPLICATION PROCESS

Speaker applications open late October and are open for 2 weeks. Speakers will speak at 3 of our 4 meetings, we do not have a speaker in July, we ask the speaker if there are months they cannot speak and what the top 3 months they would like is.

Our speakers help educate, inspire, and encourage our members through topics that support personal and professional growth.

Rather than delivering a sales presentation, we ask speakers to focus on sharing valuable insights, experiences, and practical takeaways. When members connect with your message, relationships naturally follow.

Selected speakers receive a 20-minute presentation slot, including audience questions. Applications are reviewed carefully to ensure a variety of topics and perspectives throughout the year. Because our calendar is planned well in advance, submitting an application does not guarantee a speaking opportunity.
