The Story of West Michigan Woman began in August 2002 with the launch of Serendipity Media, a publishing company rooted in the tour and travel sector. As our business grew, so did our passion for creating meaningful connections. This journey eventually led to the launch of West Michigan Woman in 2012, a publication designed to inspire and support professional women in our community.

A decade later, we're proud to have fostered a space where stories of resilience, growth, and achievement are shared. The Brilliance Awards were born from this mission. These awards celebrate the exceptional talent, spirit, and commitment of those who are dedicated to uplifting others and driving positive change. By recognizing women—and men—who elevate our community and excel in their fields, the Brilliance Awards honor the leaders who inspire us to reach higher.

Join us as we continue to celebrate the brilliance within our community.

From this issue

/Becky%20Wood:%20Celebrating%2020%20Years%20of%20Inforum%20and%20Accelerating%20Women’s%20Careers
Born and raised in Southern Indiana as the youngest daughter in a large, lively family, Becky Wood has always believed the glass is half full, trusting that there's purpose in every experience. It's this can-do attitude and her long-instilled faith which have equipped Wood to navigate life's obstacles with resilience and hope.
/Plan%20an%20Unforgettable%20Getaway%20with%20Your%20Besties
Women of West Michigan: it's time to gather your BFFs and organize a little vacay! Whether you want to relax and be pampered, get creative or adventurous, shop 'til you should probably stop, or combine a little of everything, one of these destinations is calling you.
/Owning%20the%20Full%20Story:%20Why%20Narrative%20Justice%20Matters%20for%20Family%20Leaders
When a group of mothers I have the privilege of working with through the Steelcase Foundation Investment in Families Initiative chose to call themselves Family Leaders, it was more than a name. It was an act of narrative justice.
/Five%20Legal%20Documents%20Every%20Woman%20Should%20Have
Taking control of your financial and legal security as a woman is imperative. Having your bases covered is not only smart for yourself and your own protection, but also that of any loved ones who may be affected. We connected with Rose A. Coonen, Founding Attorney at Coonen Law, PLLC, to get her insight into the five legal documents she believes every woman should have.
