I Gotta Girl For That

Volume 2

I’ve had the privilege of connecting with an incredible group of smart, driven, and generous women through our local Working Women’s network. Many I’ve worked with personally; others I admire for their passion, expertise, and genuine care for helping others.

So if you ever find yourself saying, “Do you know anyone who…?” chances are, I gotta girl for that. 😉

Logo & Website Design

Madeline Lashbrook | Creatively Madeline Design Studio
Newlywed and creatively talented, Madeline (hence “Creatively Madeline”) brings brands to life with clean, authentic design - no AI here! Her work blends professionalism with care for her clients’ work, producing visuals that make clients (and their ideal audience) feel heard.
Ask her: to share her brand intake form. You’ve heard of medical intake forms, but a brand intake form?!

Physical Therapy

Amy McMillin | Custom Care Rehab
Founder of NEO’s first mobile fleet of physical therapists, Amy makes treating pain relief convenient, personalized, and holistic. Who wouldn’t love that? Amy is so active in networking, her kids’ activities, and growing her business, I sometimes wonder if she ever sleeps. 😉
Ask her: how you’d know if you have Vertigo.

Environmental Wellness

Carly Mitchell | Green Home Solutions of Northeast Ohio
Witty, smart, kind, and caring - it’s no surprise that Carly and her husband run Green Home Solutions. They’re on a mission to help people breathe cleaner, healthier air by testing for and removing mold, bacteria, and other indoor contaminants. Ahhh… doesn’t that just make you want to take a deep breath?
Ask her: about her time singing in Nashville.

Home & Auto Insurance

Lyndsey Rayer | Williams & Associates
Lyndsey has an infectious laugh, but she doesn’t mess around when it comes to getting you the lowest rates with the best coverage for your home and auto. She’s great for those first-time drivers too! Even if you don’t end up getting your insurance through her, you’ll still leave in a better mood after meeting her.
Ask her: what her favorite dish is to cook (she’s a chef in a past life).

Mental Health & Wellness

Maureen Rizzo | Northern Ohio Health and Wellness
Mental health is a major public issue, but Maureen approaches it differently—by getting to the root cause. Her practice takes a holistic approach, integrating psychotherapy with whole-body wellness to truly improve quality of life. As she puts it, you can’t fix one without the other; they need to be in sync—and honestly, that makes perfect sense.
Ask her: how many full-time jobs she has.

Real Estate Services

Denise Scolaro-Klag | Cleveland Home Title
I met Denise at my first WWC meeting, where she gave a 10-minute presentation on Title Insurance. I knew nothing about it, but her confidence and passion for protecting buyers stood out. She said, “If you’re going to get Title Insurance, get it through me, because I’m the best.” Eighteen months later, I experienced it for myself, and she indeed was the best.
Ask her: when and where the next Trivia Night is.

Speech Therapy

Nikki Sizler | Buckeye Speech Path, LLC
Humans are designed to communicate, but for some, it doesn’t come easily. Others may have experienced a neurological event that affected their ability to process or express language. Nikki helps clients—from children to adults—rehabilitate through specialized techniques she’s been extensively trained in. How fulfilling that must be!
Ask her: which high school sport keeps her busiest when she’s not working.

Event Planning

Rachel Smith | Palm Events
A former favorite elementary school teacher turned entrepreneur. After having a baby, she also gave birth to Palm Events and Rentals. It’s a premium, elegant, and experiential event rental company offering everything from photo booth rentals to full-on party décor. From basic to bougie, she can do it in her sleep.
Ask her: how she came up with the business name.

Insurance & Employee Benefits

Heather Sohar | Brooker Insurance Agency
Heather is one of those people who can instantly light up a room. Always smiling and genuinely caring about others, it’s no wonder she loves working for Brooker Insurance, a family-owned company built on family values. Whether it’s health, accident, or life insurance, she helps businesses find the right plans for their employees.
Ask her: what kind of tractor she has.
