Marin

Hello, and thank you for visiting the Women's Council of Realtors' Marin site, and for taking the time to read this letter.

As the new president of the Marin network, I would like to say how meaningful and fulfilling accepting this role has been.  You see, I didn't know what Women's Council was all about.  Sure, the Council plans events, about many of which I used to say "I'd love to attend, but I'm too busy trying to earn a living."  So why did I sign up as president? 

I signed up as president because I felt needed.  You see, the wonderful past president, Michelle Dodd, had served her two-year term limit.  The organization would fold without a new president.  It seemed sad.  I called Michelle to find out if or how I might help, and the rest was history.

Women's Council started out at as an obligation, but has turned into an incredibly meaningful and fulfilling experience.  I get to collaborate with a wonderful team of colleagues on events that are both educational and fun, and form relationships outside of our day-to-day business.  Women's Council is teaching me not just leadership skills, but what it means to lead.  Women's Council is helping me become a more confident agent AND person.  It has enriched my work and my family life.

If you are a member of Women's Council, thank you for bringing yourself to us.  If you are considering joining, we welcome you to our sister/brother/person-hood.  I promise, you will find meaning and fulfillment in your experience as a Women's Council member, just like I have.

Please reach out at any time.  I am just a call, text or email away, and am here for you!

With sincere thanks,

Janey Kaplan
