Last week, we had the privilege of being part of history in the making at the Field House in Jefferson Township. The energy was palpable as we joined forces with like-minded individuals at the inaugural meeting of the Butler County Chamber Of Commerce Women’s Alliance Initiative. Spearheaded by the visionary Tanya Wise, Operations Manager of the Butler County Chamber of Commerce, this gathering marked the dawn of a new era for women in business in our community.
The mission of the Women’s Alliance is nothing short of inspiring: to empower, promote, and support the dynamic women who are shaping the business landscape of Butler County. It’s not just about breaking the glass ceiling; it’s about shattering it into a million pieces and paving the way for future generations of female leaders.
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Tanya Wise and the entire team at the Butler County Chamber of Commerce for their unwavering dedication to providing enhanced opportunities and resources for women in business.

At Specialized/CHS, we believe in the power of community and supporting initiatives that make a real difference in people’s lives. That’s why we were thrilled to recently attend an event in support of Twilight Wish, an organization dedicated to celebrating seniors and making their dreams come true. Think of it as Make a Wish, but for our beloved seniors who have spent a lifetime enriching our communities with their wisdom and experience. The event we attended was nothing short of heartwarming. Twilight Wish goes above and beyond to ensure that every senior’s dream is fulfilled.
As a company deeply committed to giving back, we were honored to support such a meaningful cause. We believe in the importance of cherishing our seniors and recognizing the invaluable contributions they have made throughout their lives. Supporting organizations like Twilight Wish allows us to show our gratitude and appreciation in a tangible way.
Thank you to Tricia Pritchard and the entire Twilight Wish team for their dedication to spreading joy and making dreams come true for seniors. We look forward to continuing our support for this wonderful cause and making a difference in the lives of our seniors, one wish at a time.
It’s the end of the week, and you’re ready to dive into the weekend. But before you sign off, why not set yourself up for a smooth and stress-free Monday? Here are a few simple yet effective ways to get organized and make the most of your upcoming week:
Take a moment to celebrate your accomplishments from the week. Whether it’s completing a challenging project or reaching a personal milestone, give yourself a well-deserved pat on the back. Recognizing your wins not only boosts your confidence but also sets a positive tone for the days ahead.
Clear the clutter from your desk and create a clean and organized workspace. File away documents, straighten up your stationery, and toss any unnecessary items. A tidy workspace not only looks professional but also helps you start Monday with a clear mind and focused energy.
Review your calendar and to-do list for the upcoming week. Identify the most important tasks and projects that need your attention on Monday. By planning your priorities in advance, you can hit the ground running and stay on track from the get-go.
Touch base with your colleagues or team members to sync up on any pending tasks or deadlines. Share updates, delegate responsibilities if needed, and ensure everyone is on the same page for the week ahead. Effective communication sets the stage for a collaborative and productive Monday.
Set specific goals or objectives for Monday to keep yourself motivated and focused. Whether it’s tackling a challenging project, reaching out to a new client, or completing a set of tasks, having clear goals in mind helps you stay accountable and driven.
Take care of any lingering tasks or loose ends before you clock out for the weekend. Whether it’s sending out a few final emails, organizing your inbox, or wrapping up a project, tying up loose ends ensures you can fully disconnect and enjoy your weekend without lingering worries.
With these simple steps, you can bid farewell to the workweek with a sense of accomplishment and anticipation for the week ahead. So go ahead, wrap up your Friday on a high note, and get ready to conquer Monday like a boss!
Ever think about incorporating some exercise into your before-work routine but think you don’t have time? Even just 10-15 minutes of light exercise in the morning can have a significant impact on your physical and mental well-being, helping you start your week with vitality and positivity. Something as simple as a brisk morning walk around your neighborhood or some light yoga or stretching can help to kick start your week with more energy and positivity. Maybe even add a few activities to your Monday morning routine once you arrive a the office like taking the stairs instead of the elevator or incorporating some light ‘desk’ exercises like chair dips, shoulder rolls, wrist or neck stretches. These desk exercises are convenient, require minimal space, and can be done in just a few minutes. Incorporating them into your pre-work routine can help improve your posture, reduce muscle tension, and boost your energy levels for the day and week ahead. Go ahead, have a Happy Monday!
