First off, I want to thank everyone who took the time to submit a nomination for this year’s Single and Successful issue. We received a record number of nominations – narrowing it down to the seven women featured here was no easy task. The number of beautiful, single, professional women in Greater Cincinnati is simply overwhelming. They’re the women who help shape our city; their dedication and community involvement makes Cincinnati a more attractive place to be – quite literally.

In the past, some men may have been put off by the thought of a “successful” woman – that she doesn’t have time for a relationship; that business always comes first; that she’s unattainable.  These are, simply, not true.

Don’t get me wrong – any “successful” person makes some sacrifices along the way. And it certainly takes hard work to rise above the rest. But it’s a matter of give and take. The “successful” woman finds balance in her life – managing career, friends, family,and even relationships.

The women you’ll meet in this month’s issue aren’t unattainable. They’re inspirational. They’re the whole package. The real deal. The ones you’d take home to mom – and the ones mom always hoped you’d find.

I hope you enjoy meeting them as much as we did. In fact, you can meet some of our Single & Successful ladies at future Man Club events – make sure you’re subscribed to find out when and where.

And, as always, thanks for reading.
