Group Empowers Local Business Women

This month Joy Chang and Mallika Malhotra are celebrating their 2-year anniversary as co-leaders of the Millburn/Short Hills pod of the women’s business group Believe Inspire Grow.

B.I.G. is a networking community of intelligent and creative women.  It offers education, support and relationship building in an environment designed to empower women, from entrepreneurs to those just starting their business.  

"It's hard to believe that it's been two years since we started as co-leaders of our pod, but it has been an incredibly rewarding experience for us," says Mallika Malhotra. Joy Chang says "Our pod is made up of a very vibrant group of women who want to be inspired, learn new things, share ideas, get feedback, and help each other."

The group has monthly meetings but also get together for evening networking events, lunches, and other social gatherings.

"I am so happy to have joined B.I.G.! Everyone is so professional and supportive and I've made many contacts," said B.I.G. member Kyle Harrow, a Brand Partner at Nerium International. "I look forward to every meeting to meet new women and reconnect with ones I've already met!"  

Local business women are invited to come celebrate the two-year anniversary at the next monthly meeting on Monday, May 5, at 9:30 a.m.. The meeting is held at Prominent Properties Sotheby's International Realty, 555 Millburn Ave., 2nd floor, Short Hills. To mark the occasion, there will be coffee, treats and raffle prizes. Non-members can attend free of charge.

"I have been a member of the Millburn pod of B.I.G, for over a year now, though it seems like yesterday. I've met and befriended many wonderful women. We have nurtured each others' business dreams and growth," said Judy Scherer, president of 21st Century Career.
