    “Maria Kritikos is larger than life in the most elegant of ways. She is constantly seeking out ways to connect women in business. Having had the privilege of speaking at Ladies WHO Lunch, I know the positive effects that these events, and Maria personally, have on those who attend. It starts as a lunch with style and purpose. Hower for many it is the starting point of something bigger. Ladies WHO Lunch is one of those unique events that every woman should experience at least once.”

    Tracey Drake, Editor of Niche Magazine

    “Maria you are an amazing young lady! You are a great hostess, you organized an amazing, detailed luncheon with very interesting speakers, you are also a graceful speaker, well-mannered and so much appreciated by the hundreds of ladies there! I will definitely not miss any of your amazing future luncheons. Oh!!! I forgot the hats… I loved them all. You looked like a model or actress coming out of a magazine or a movie!!! Thank you for the introduction. You and all your wonderful members of the community made me feel, welcomed, loved and important. In no time, I felt part of your Ladies WHO Lunch group with all these amazing inspirational women around me. You are making all of us Greek women very happy and proud. A big Bravo from my heart!!!”

    Cara McLeay, Founder of a Fashion Love Affair

    “I was there… It was a wonderful event and as always connected with some amazing women. I am so grateful for the friendships that have developed from the women I’ve met at the Ladies WHO Lunch events! Thank you Maria!!

    Maneli Nourbakhsh

    “I had a lovely time as always Maria Kritikos! Ladies WHO Lunch is such a wonderful organization, and I am overjoyed to be one of your founding members as this heart-based community expands!”

    Callie Kares

    “Ladies WHO Lunch has been a great networking vehicle, not to mention a wonderful resource. I’ve reached out to members on numerous occasions for my work in public relations. Whether they’re helping to spread the word, volunteering for a non-profit initiative or making an introduction, it’s been so valuable to have a pool of like-minded professional women to call on, a group that is willing to help and support one another.”

    Kristina Matisic, Founder of Kristina Matisic Creative

    Ladies WHO Lunch® Network is a global premier business & social networking group for women entrepreneurs with a dream that want to make a difference in the world. It is a forum where like-minded women gather to empower one another, raise social awareness & gather inspiration to conquer the world fearlessly.

    “I love all my on-line communities and the amazing people I have gotten to connect with via the web but I have to say that nothing beats real people, in real time with real conversation and connection. Getting to shake hands, hug, and give and receive smiles is so important to ignite our souls and remind us we are part of a bigger collective. Over coming my gremlins of judgement and just allowing myself to show up, be seen and meet other people has been huge for me over the past few years. It feels good to be able to extend a hand and a hello to someone else who is feeling nervous while I continue to nurture my own courage. A great afternoon out with the Ladies WHO Lunch community in fancy hats and high heels. I get to be ALL of it, business woman, mom and just ME.”

    Lisa Carpenter

    “I just wanted to drop a couple lines to say thank you so much for having us at the Ladies WHO Lunch Summer Patio Party. Congratulations on such a successful turn out!

    I speak for both myself and Yana when I say that not only did we make many meaningful connections, we had lots of fun doing so, and were very inspired to hear about everyone’s personal journey.“

    Liana Mascagni
