Show Bio	The Art of Marketing \| Show Map \|
Biography The Art of Marketing Inc. was created in 1999 by Wendy Marlow in response to the growing need for marketing and sales expertise for small businesses. In the late 90′s, research revealed that people were leaving their corporate jobs (both voluntarily and involuntarily) and starting their own business to enhance their quality of life and/or generate an income. What Wendy noticed was that while people were proficient in their craft, they were not proficient in marketing and sales. Through an ingenious survey, Wendy was able to identify and confirm the 3 biggest obstacles small business owners face: (1) finance (2) marketing and (3) sales. In particular, small business owners identified “getting their name out there” as their most complex of tasks, and often the one ignored. Ask Wendy about her ingenious survey that resulted in a >95% response rate. Wendy Marlow worked in corporate environments for more than 25 years, 19 of them with a health care company in Mississauga. As the company grew, so did Wendy’s responsibilities and knowledge base. She did everything from buying cars and office furniture to creating incentive travel and bonus/recognition programs. But it was in marketing that she found her passion, drive and the creative expression she loved. In 1999 Wendy left her corporate life behind as she spread her entrepreneurial wings. She has never regretted her decision and is profoundly thankful for her corporate experience.

Biography Alexandra is a partner at Mayeski Mathers LLP with offices in beautiful Prince Edward County and Toronto. She combines strong communication, presentation and analytical skills with sound judgment when advocating on behalf of her clients. She is dedicated to providing clients with the most efficient, practical and cost-effective resolutions to the issues that they face. While the firm deals with a broad range of issues, it has a special focus on elder law matters, such as estate, trust and capacity issues. She has appeared before all levels of the Ontario courts as well as various administrative boards and tribunals. She has represented clients in trials, arbitrations, adjudications, hearings, mediations and appeals. Prior to starting her own law firm, Alexandra worked at a well-known litigation boutique in Hamilton, Evans Sweeny Bordin LLP, at a national Bay Street law firm in Toronto, Heenan Blaikie LLP, and most recently, at a health law boutique firm, Dykeman Dewhirst O’Brien LLP, as Senior Litigation Counsel. Alexandra continues to maintain her litigation practice with Dykeman Dewhirst O’Brien LLP in an “of counsel” role with the firm. She is active in her community and sits on the Boards of TASTE the County and the Alzheimer’s Society of Prince Edward County. Alexandra is also an executive member of the Ontario Bar Association’s Trusts and Estates Law Section. After being “weekenders” for a number of years, Alexandra and her husband decided to live full-time in Prince Edward County and in so doing, they have eliminated hours of commuting to and from work, spend more time with their two small children and have a better quality of life. Living in the County also means there is more time to spend working in their small vineyard on their property – an excuse for Alexandra’s husband to purchase his tractor.

Biography Karen is a Certified Money coach, a Time To Think Facilitator, a Certified Professional Co-Active Coach, non-profit leader, and spiritual-seeker. Her passion is helping individuals, families, couples, social entrepreneurs and mission-based organisations wake up to their value and talents, so that they can contribute their very best to the world. She gets people to their goals by releasing the suffering and tension around their relationship with money. Many years experience in nonprofit leadership & fund development – combined with her own glorious messiness and vulnerability uncovering her truth around money – make her intimately familiar with the struggles that people and organisations face. As a money and life coach with over 20 years experience practicing and teaching meditation, she has worked extensively with big blocks such as fear, dissociation and betrayal that are common in people’s consciousness around money. She has lived and worked in Europe, Japan, Brazil and North America giving her a rich cultural and global understanding of money issues. Seeing the pain these cause – and the great difference people can make when free of them – has made her fiercely committed to helping people come to a place of flow and empowerment around money. When she’s not engaged in her work, you’ll find her playing the Japanese bamboo flute, reading about art, design and history, and walking around feeling and sensing the world around her.

Biography A sales and marketing executive in technology for more than 25 years, I created MentorSHE in 2020, with the intention to create a solution that would provide women an opportunity to be matched to mentors in a more modern way. The MentorSHE platform is currently in BETA and offers women a chance to build a profile as a mentor or mentee and to match, at will or not, online. Through my research and development efforts, I surveyed and interviewed many women and associations of interest. I met Leigh Mitchell, who, in my opinion is offering excellent services and mentoring opportunities today across a spectrum of businesses. We are now collaborating to further study and understand how we can better serve the needs of women who want to lead and learn in an unbiased, safe and barrier free environment. If you would like to be part of this project in any way, please reach out! I look forward to meeting you all in the upcoming Mentor Circles!

We take care of the meal planning and shopping, saving you time for the activities and people you love. We currently deliver to various locations around the GTA. Visit https://www.mealspirations.com/ to start making your dinnertime easy and delicious! Biography Our journey began over a year ago when Linda Ogbeide a founding member decided to take action to improve the negative lifestyle choices that were impacting her health and wellness. Having a chaotic job, where was a driven, dedicated over achiever, she focused her time and energy on work, and neglected her health and overall wellbeing. She had little time to eat healthy and like many people relied on quick fixes from the grocery story, or take. Linda loved cooking and wanted to improve her health, so she decided to make a change. “If I had the idea of what I wanted to cook and all the groceries I needed to prepare it, the lack of creativity, and time restraints would be eliminated. If everything I needed came to me, what would be my excuse not to eat well?” Linda Ogbeide Mealspirations was born out of Linda’s need for a convenient healthy alternative to take out and wanting to help others out of the same rut she faced on a daily basis. Certainly other working professionals and families had similar struggles with the “what’s for dinner” conundrum. Mealspirations a Toronto based start-up delivers chef designed recipes and all the ingredients you need to prepare them straight to your home, allowing you to cook delicious, healthy dinners. We take care of the meal planning and shopping, saving you time for the activities and people you love. The recipes are crafted by a culinary team and nutritionist, ensuring delicious, healthy, nutrient-rich meals for you and your loved ones. Since Mealspirations’ first delivery of recipes and groceries kits in December 2013 their philosophy has been to help Canadians get back to the fundamentals of cooking at home and eating local, seasonal produce. “It’s about getting people back into the kitchen and inspiring them to cook, eat healthy, and bond over food. We carefully select every ingredient to ensure freshness and quality. By portioning our ingredients we save people money since they by less and waste less. Our customers rave about how we have changed their lives. We have couples that bond over cooking together, since we have made dinner preparation easy for them. Dinnertime is now couples time, which they look forward to every evening. Our families actively make time to sit at the dinner table and eat together instead of in front of the television. Dinnertime is now family time as it used to be. Many have seen an improvement in their health by cooking more at home and spending less money by buying excess food that goes to waste.” Linda Ogbeide

Biography Biography: Leigh Mitchell is a passionate relationship marketer and storyteller with 20 years of corporate marketing and community development experience, specializing in challenging brands to create more meaningful social impact within their business operations and activities.

She quickly realized that not only could she make a difference with her business but others could also. Her stories of hope and the spirit of giving were contagious. This is when the#SocialforGood movement was introduced to her community through launching an annual conference in 2015. Studying the impact of socially responsible businesses, she found ways in which profitable businesses could find more engaged audiences when advocating the benefits of their purpose driven mission based business planning and activities. The theory is the more money we make, the more sustainable change we can bring to our communities. Consumers agree with this theory – 67% of them prefer to buy from socially responsible companies. Leigh is drawn to connecting her community across North America and in person throughout Canada. Her career has led her to successfully work with major brands such as GM Canada, Microsoft Canada, TELUS, Johnson & Johnson, Maple Leaf Foods, TD Canada Trust, Staples Canada and Random House. Leigh has been featured on CBC Radio, The Globe and Mail, Toronto Star and in other media and has been a featured speaker at the #SocialforGood Conference, Blissdom Canada, The Wellness Business Summit and has served as a judge for UPS and Microsoft Small Business Contests. Leigh is also the Founder and President of Women in Biz Network and passionate healthy living advocate (after a 15 + career in health promotion), yoga junkie and self professed techie nerd. When she isn’t blogging or tweeting, you will find her outside, biking, hiking or running in the great outdoors while also excessively Instagram-ing photos to Facebook when no one is looking. Leigh has extensive education in marketing with certificates in not-for profit and corporate marketing, project management and has 15 years experiencing working in a variety of marketing campaigns developing traditional, experiential and digital marketing success stories. Leigh Mitchell has been featured on CBC Radio, national newspapers, Women’s Heart Journal for Business and has spoke at Blissdom Canada – Canada’s first social media conference for women.
