Who created Pink Wisdom?
Well, hello! My name is Alison Chace. You might remember me as that woman washing her hair with Herbal Essence, emerging from the bathroom murmuring, “Yes, yes, YESSS!” Yes, that would be me faking an orgasm. Don’t laugh, it was a good career move for Meg Ryan.
Anyway… as an actor, you have to create your own projects or you do a lot of sitting by the phone. Even Brad Pitt has his own production company! The project I dreamed up was an online Today Show for all things relationships, shepherding women through the agony of painful breakups with my wisdom, humor, and special guests. With acting (and, okay, life!) I’d been through more than my fair share of rejection and I thought, “Dammit, who better to walk the jilted, dumped, and two-timed through the Valley of Forlornity and deliver them out to the other side than me!” So, in 2009, I founded WakeUpToABreakUp.com.
What began as a lark turned into a life-changer. Wake Up to a Break Up was simple and friendly, full of great content, resources, links, lists, advice, and above all, humor. Slowly but surely, women from around the world began to drop in and share their stories, angst, and support during their most painful times. It turns out breakups are a global, cross-cultural phenomenon.
But here’s the funny thing… after a few years, I realized my favorite part of the site was the expert advice. I interviewed some of the United States’ leading relationship experts and heard incredible advice. The thing I loved the most about putting this section of the site together was searching out, connecting with, and then getting to know these smart, thriving women through the interviews. My desire to learn more from them and further explore the psychology of relationships is what inspired me to launch Pink Wisdom.
Once Pink Wisdom was up and running, I had questions about this new career I’d made. With the Valley of Forlornity in my rearview, I faced the steep Hills of Entrepreneurship. So I started asking career experts — trailblazing women who’ve insisted on their own success — for their advice. The answers I got are all here.
It’s win-win for everyone! Not only do I get to ask these experts the questions you’d be asking if you met them, and pass on their well-earned words of wisdom, I learn so much myself through every single interview. So sit back, check out all the fabulous women we’ve talked with so far, and explore the answers to your business and relationship questions!
