Women in Networking NWA is here to provide business networking and education for women in the workforce throughout Northwest Arkansas.
We are an active group, and we would love for you to get involved with WIN through our activities. Below are four ways to engage and begin to build relationships through WIN:
Attend a WIN luncheon
We meet monthly for a networking luncheon. Our meetings include plenty of time for mingling and usually a speaker, door prizes, and special entertainment. There is no membership process or fee. Luncheon tickets are $32.
Schedule
one-to-one meetings
After every luncheon, each attendee is emailed a roster with the contact information for everyone who was present. Identify one or more women from the WIN roster and schedule one-to-one meetings over lunch or a coffee. This is a vital step to forming personal connections and building relationships.
Speak to a board member
We would love to get you involved in what is happening behind the scenes at WIN. Reach out to a board member and she will help you find a committee or event within WIN where you would like to serve.
Share WIN
If you are benefiting from WIN, please share about the group with other women in business and invite them to attend our events. We grow WIN with your help and greatly appreciate any share of social media content, encouragements to buy luncheon tickets, or an online review.

When I was 17 I started moving furniture across the country on the weekends. I had recently adopted a child (long story for another time). I found out quickly that it was incredibly difficult to get hired and hold down a full time job with that responsibility, while still trying to complete high school! The weekend moving gig seemed to be working so I kept at it. I learned so much about timing, logistics, and customer service during that time.
A year later from that first move, I was turned down for a moving job because I was a woman. It hurt. I felt disrespected as an entrepreneur and as an individual. Decision time. I remember thinking “Ok. That’s great. I want to hire people anyway. I don’t want to be moving everything on my own all the time.” So, I hired my first crew. We’ve been going full metal jacket ever since.
In a short period of time, I’ve gone from a girl moving mattresses across the country on the weekends to being awarded “The Best Moving Company in Northwest Arkansas” by the Northwest Arkansas Democrat Gazette in both 2018, 2019, 2020, 2022, and 2023.
I would be lying if I said I wasn’t proud of how far I’ve come. But, I would also be lying if I said I got here by myself. I credit the crews I’ve worked with, my loyal customers, and my family.
I’m excited about the future of Young’s Moving Service. This company has been built and continues to grow on the principle of giving more than asked. At the end of it all, I just want to make people’s lives better than I found them. I didn’t expect to do that while moving them, but life has a funny way of working out when you work hard for others.
At Young’s Moving Services, we understand how challenging moving can be. Whether you are relocating to a new home, office or state, moving can be a stressful and time-consuming experience. That’s why we are committed to providing professional and reliable moving services to make your moving experience seamless and stress-free.
As of 2025, We offer a wide range of moving services, including residential moving, commercial moving, long-distance moving, specialty moving and packing services.
Our services are designed to cater to the needs of individuals, families, and businesses, making us the go-to choice for anyone in need of reliable and professional moving services.
