FAQ
- Who founded the National Association of Baby Boomer Women and how is NABBW associated with Boomer Women Speak?
Dotsie Bregel was the original founder, starting it all in 2002 to give baby boomer women a voice. She quickly learned that her generation of women desires to feel educated and empowered. A seed was planted through prayer to launch an association dedicated to inspiring women to explore their passions and live life to the fullest.
In early 2010 Dotsie sold the two sister sites, www.BoomerWomenSpeak.com and www.NABBW.com to current “Boomer in Chief,” Anne Holmes, and her husband Steve. They are the owners of several other Baby Boomer-focused websites, including BoomerCo Inc., Boomer Women’s World, Boomers Magazine, Boomer Lifestyle and Boomer Domains.
