Diva Toolbox
The mission of the Diva Toolbox is to empower, educate, and entertain women.
We seek to provide insight into issues that affect women, to inspire women to achieve, to educate women in both practical and intellectual subjects, to offer a forum for discussion, and to create a supportive and nurturing community.
The Diva Toolbox presents timely articles, engaging stories, powerful testimonials, and wise words from members of our community.
We offer a forum for discussion, and an opportunity for differing viewpoints.
Janet Powers first recognized the need for the Diva Toolbox when she built her first home and had a million questions. Luckily she had a wealth of family, friends and colleagues to help her through the process.
As time went on and she renovated her home, invested for retirement, bought a new car, insured her investments, the questions kept coming up. Janet realized that there were millions of women out there, just like her, that needed help in finding the answers and she decided to help them!
The Diva Toolbox motto is "Within you lies the ability to do anything. Find it." Janet lives by that motto and hopes that other women will find inspiration in this message.
