Once a month, join us around a table full of women who get it.
Northern Michigan’s community for women in business and life. Real gatherings, real friendships, and a network that shows up for you.


The community I wish I’d had
I started my business with two little kids underfoot, only a loose understanding of what a business plan was, and without even having an email account. I didn’t have everything (anything) figured out. I simply had an idea, a willingness to learn, and the determination to keep going.
Over the years, I’ve learned that we all need connections, people who believe in us, and a community that reminds us we’re capable of more than we think. That’s why NoMiWoman means so much to me. It’s the community I wish I’d had when I was just getting started.
— Kerry Winkler, Founder
Whether you run a business, are dreaming one up, or just want to meet great women, there’s a seat at the table for you.

Why women stay

“Kerry brought together a group of women who did not know one another and created a space where we could all grow. I felt comfortable being vulnerable about my struggles and successes.”

“We have formed deep relationships that would not be possible in just a regular networking event. The support of these women gave me the courage to take a big step in my business and career.”

“Kerry is very professional, friendly and a go-getter. She brought together a group of women from all walks of life and various ages, and conducted the meetings with thought and compassion.”

Good to know
Do I need to own a business to join?
Not at all. Our members include business owners, women just getting started, and women who simply want to connect with others in Northern Michigan.
When and where are Coffee Chats?
Coffee Chats meet once a month in person. See the next date and location here.
Can I cancel the monthly plan?
Yes, you can cancel the monthly plan anytime.
I’m new and don’t know anyone. Is that OK?
That’s exactly who this is for. Most women walk in knowing no one and leave with new friends. No name tags, no pitches, just real conversation.
Still deciding? Tell us a little about yourself and Kerry will reach out.
