Launched August 2018

Our Mission Statement:

"A worldwide community of positive, purpose-driven women in every stage of life who are committed to connection, collaboration, and celebration."

Welcome to the Colorado Springs, CO Chapter of Polka Dot Powerhouse

If you've been looking for a place where women genuinely support one another, celebrate each other's successes, and build real relationships, you might have just found it.

Polka Dot Powerhouse is a community of women from all walks of life. Our members include business owners, professionals, retirees, creatives, public servants, stay-at-home moms, women navigating life transitions, and plenty of women who simply wanted to meet good people and be part of something positive.

What brings us together isn't what we do for a living, instead it's how we show up for one another. We believe in connection over competition, collaboration over comparison, and creating a space where women can feel encouraged, supported, and valued.

What You’ll Find Here:

Genuine Relationships: The women you meet here won't just collect your business card and move on. They celebrate your wins, check in on you when life gets hard, and often become friends beyond the walls of our monthly meetings.
Encouragement and Support: Whether you're growing a business, building a career, starting over, settling into a new community, or simply looking for your people, you'll find women who are ready to cheer you on.
A Place to Belong: This isn't “traditional networking”. There are no awkward sales pitches or pressure-filled conversations. Nutshell: Real women building real relationships.
Collaboration: We believe there is room for everyone to succeed. That's why our members love sharing ideas, resources, opportunities, and connections whenever they can.
A Community That Goes Beyond Your Chapter: As a member of Polka Dot Powerhouse, you're connected to thousands of women across the globe. Whether you're traveling, relocating, looking for resources, or simply expanding your network, those connections are there for you.

About our Speaker: Dr. Elliott taught junior and senior high school for over 25 years, fought fires with the USDA Forest Service, and worked in the Information Technology (IT) industry before starting ABCIW. Graduating from Parker University's College of Chiropractic (Dallas, TX), she had the esteemed privilege of being the first American to complete a chiropractic internship in Madrid, Spain where she lived for 4 months! For several years now, she has enjoyed serving clients from the heart and watching their transformational growth in their own healing journeys to vibrant life. A teacher at heart, she still enjoys educating and empowering people. When she is not at the office, she is on a hiking trail somewhere in the mountains or you might find her fiddling and singing along with local musicians.

SPEAKER APPLICATION PROCESS

Speaker applications are currently Open!

Our speakers help educate, inspire, and encourage our members through topics that support personal and professional growth.

Rather than delivering a sales presentation, we ask speakers to focus on sharing valuable insights, experiences, and practical takeaways. When members connect with your message, relationships naturally follow.

Selected speakers receive a 20-minute presentation slot, including audience questions. Applications are reviewed carefully to ensure a variety of topics and perspectives throughout the year. Because our calendar is planned well in advance, submitting an application does not guarantee a speaking opportunity.
