Meet the Member! This blog is one in a series of posts dedicated to learning a little more about one of our PWBC members
Karri Reiser is the owner of Little Owl Design, a Bay Area website design, graphic (logo and branding) design, and SEO management company, and a seasoned marketing professional. Karri started Little Owl Design seven years ago. She has been honored to design the branding and marketing for so many of the amazing businesses and looks forward to designing for many, many more!
The mission of Little Owl Design is to help its clients get more leads and drive more sales. Little Owl Design’s full suite of design services includes website design and eCommerce website design for the WordPress platform, graphic design (both print & digital). Logo, branding, and SEO (search engine optimization) management services are also available. Little Owl Design partners with small businesses to help them reach their ideal client or customer.
Karri chose the owl as her business avatar because owls encompass the vision she has for her company. In literature, owls have been portrayed two unique ways. First, as the wisest animal in all the forest (like “Owl” from Winnie the Pooh, or the owl in the old Toostie Pop commercials). Everyone came to them for advice and to dose of wisdom. Second, owls are depicted as the deliverer of messages (like Hedwig from Harry Potter). Wisdom and communication help Karri deliver her clients’ message to their community.
Karri grew up in the Bay Area and now lives in the lovely town of Discovery Bay with her husband and two children. When she’s not designing she can be found reading mystery or fantasy novels (like Harry Potter, of course!), catching up on her favorite TV shows (House of the Dragon), playing cards or boardgames with her family, and drawing. Of course, she loves Harry Potter (books or movies) and (surprise!) is a proud Ravenclaw. ”Or yet in wise old Ravenclaw, if you’ve a ready mind, where those of wit and learning, will always find their kind.” – Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone
Several things guide Karri’s life and business :
“All that I have is thanks to God and all that I do is for his glory.” – Karri was formerly the Youth Minister at Holy Rosary Church and she and her family have a strong relationships with many of the Western Dominican Friars.
“Service is the foundation I choose to build my life and career on.” – Karri is proud to be a member of the Rotary Club of Brentwood, where the core belief is “Service above self.”
“If you want to build your business, you must build your relationships.” – Karri has been a member of the Delta Networking Partners for 7 years, is a member of the Peninsula Women’s Business Connection and currently leads the Brentwood Power Network. There are 3 keys to marketing yourself: People need to know, like and trust you. Building relationships encourages that.
“When the businesses in your community are successful your community is successful.” – Karri serves on the Board of Directors for the Brentwood Chamber of Commerce and recently became the President Elect Nominee for 2024. Her mission will always be to advocate for the businesses in her community.

Donnlynn Polito, Vigor & Trim Fitness, Shares Holistic Ways to Keep the Pain Away
We’re going to look at two holistic ways, according to studies, that you can keep low back pain away to stay away. These holistic approaches focus on the relationships between the spine and its surrounding muscles, as in exercises, and the spine and the nervous system, as in chiropractic care.
Millions of people deal with chronic low back pain, the most common of back pains.
At Vigor and Trim, we like to find ways that’ll relieve pain and allow you have an active lifestyle without drugs or surgery. And while there are many alternative therapies, these are two holistic approaches are shown to be great partners for an active, pain-free life.
Chiropractic care as a holistic approach to stimulate the spine and relieve back pain
Research shows that the manual adjustments and techniques used by chiropractors stimulate changes in the central nervous system, influence biomechanical movement and patterns of the spine and improve the proprioceptive processing (controlling movement and position) of the spine.
A chiropractic treatment of controlled and precise manipulations can correctly align the spine, reduce any swelling or nerve blockages, as well as reducing tension and stress. This allows the nervous system to function properly.
It also works with the musculoskeletal system relieving pain, spasms and helps restore and maintain joint mobility.
Chiropractic care has several positive impacts on nervous system and the ability of the nervous system to communicate throughout the body.
The very core of the nervous system is the spinal cord. The spinal cord receives and transmits information throughout the body. A spine that’s out of alignment, or if there’s an imbalance in the body, it can impact the function of the nervous system causing pain, difficulty with mobility and a whole host of other health conditions.
By opening the nervous system’s pathways, chiropractic treatment helps move along information smoothly and unobstructed, keeping the nervous system working as it should.
How often you see a chiropractor depends on your condition and your goals. To get the most benefits, going on a regular basis might be the prescription to follow. Your recommended number of visits would depend on the recommendation of your practitioner and the pace of your improvement.
To maintain a healthy state of wellness, maintenance treatments are recommended to prevent future risks of injury.
Your lifestyle, however, plays an big and important role as to frequency of your visits. Those who sit at desks for a good portion of the day, or those who are lifting heavy loads throughout the day may want to visit their chiropractor more often with a maintenance program.
Exercise as a holistic approach to manage your back pain and strengthen the low back
Many studies show the importance of incorporating exercise in managing back pain and strengthening the low back. In fact, and as you know, regular exercise is a crucial part of any healthy living plan.
Patients who receive chiropractic care and who exercise afterward treatment heal faster than those who don’t exercise. Of course, the type of exercises you do matters with rehab exercises being recommended.
Exercise after a chiropractic treatment with these considerations:
· Your goal is to restore reasonable movement in the back
· Stimulating and conditioning the surrounding muscles with stability and strength is vital to recovery
Some examples of rehab exercises would include mobilization, core strengthening and proprioceptive exercises.
Proprioceptive exercises are about improving your body’s ability to know where it is in space, and they’re done by working balance and movement control.
Aerobic exercises for function, back pain relief and mobility
Aerobic exercise keeps the spine functional and mobile. Exercises like walking, biking and swimming can decrease the stiffness, lessens stress on the spine. These exercises can improve the blood flow to the spine which in turn, increases the nutrients reaching the spine. Aerobic exercise also burns calories and helps keep your weight in check.
Cardio exercises produce endorphins that act as natural pain killers, while they elevate mood and help to relieve symptoms of depression.
The recommended cardio workout has a duration of 20 to 30 minutes done 3 to 5 times a week. With more severe back pain, reduce the duration to a comfortable level with gradual increases over time.
Strength training to condition and strengthen your back
To better support the back, muscles need to be conditioned and strengthened. Strong muscles can hold up the back and relieve pain. These exercises concentrate more on the core but also include the glutes and hips.
Strength exercises for the back can reduce the stress on spinal discs and joints and help with better alignment of the spine. They also help improve posture. With stronger, more conditioned muscles, you’ll be better able to mover more comfortably and easily.
The recommended amount of workout time for strength is 2 to 3 times a week.

Nicole Watson, DC: The Doctor Is IN
Dr. Nicole Watson has owned Belmont Advanced Chiropractic (1601 El Camino Real in Belmont) since 2008. Chiropractic physicians deal with the nervous system and its relationship to the spinal column and all body systems. Dr. Nicole takes care of patients of all ages with a huge variety of conditions and even those folks that want to maintain their health.
Dr. Nicole recently spoke about the incidence of shoulder dysfunction which has increased a lot during the pandemic and is probably due to the increased prevalence of sedentary work. The shoulder joint is one of the most commonly dislocated and dysfunctional body part. We use our shoulders all the time (to move heavy objects and do repetitive daily tasks like combing our hair, brushing our teeth, tying shoes, picking up objects) and don’t appreciate their importance until an injury occurs. Falls are a common cause of shoulder injury since we often try to catch ourselves with an outstretched arm and the shoulder joint takes the weight of the entire body as it falls. In addition, shoulder injuries can occur due to damage from accrued use over time due to daily repetitive tasks.
Common types of shoulder dysfuction:
●Bursitis (inflammation of one or more bursa sac around the shoulder). Many Chiropractors can employ modalities like Cold Laser to decrease inflammation and once the inflammation is under control chiropractic manual adjustments can bring down inflammation even further and start restoring Range Of Motion Bursitis can become chronic if not treated promptly.
●Tendinitis (inflammation of one or more tendons – the tissue connecting muscle to bone). This condition can be very painful, to the extent that the shoulder cannot be moved without pain. Chiropractic care can address the problem, as can use of cold laser therapy, in tandem with exercises to continue the healing process once the shoulder is stable.
●Frozen shoulder, a/k/a adhesive capsulitis (tightening and thickening of the connective tissue in the shoulder joint) is another great candidate for chiropractic resolution. It is important to address this problem before it worsens and moves to other joints.
●Damage to rotator cuff (inflammation of the muscles around the rotator cuff). Rotator cuff injuries do not necessarily require resolution by surgery; it depends on extent of injury. Strains and sprains may be treated very effectively with chiropractic care and massage therapy, and use of the cold laser.
Most shoulder injuries can take a minimum of 2-12 weeks or longer to get resolved but also require long term maintenance and upkeep to retrain the brain and get/keep the inflammation down.

Meet the Member: Donnalynn Polito
Knowing how to take care of your body, how to obtain and maintain fitness and health, should be something everyone should know. Since that’s not the case, I have set out to teach people, particularly middle age and older adults, how to do just that so that they can enjoy an active, healthy lifestyle so they can do the activities they love to do in a body they can do them well in.
I’m one of those life-long learners. I particularly dwell in the arena of food, nutrition, how to personally effect your body’s health. It all fascinates me, and I love sharing it, from how to grow your own food, to identifying and use culinary herbs; how to source your foods and how to cook food in ways that absorb the largest amounts of nutrients. It’s interesting, fun and all a part of what keeps us healthy and vibrant.
I’ve been training adults in fitness and health for more than 4 decades. I take my work seriously but have a lot of fun doing it. It’s particularly a joy to guide clients toward what I call “Practicing Euphoria”. This is the liberating and empowering magic we feel when we move our bodies and minds together in a series of movements and patterns. Perhaps, at some point, I can look forward to practicing it with you.
Watching clients work on a movement and then, one day, they achieve it. It delights us both! And it’s the best motivation to continue perfecting the fundamentals with each more challenging move. I have to say, it gives me goosebumps and sometimes I even do a momentary happy cry when they achieve something we’ve been working on for a while.
I work with middle-aged and older, busy adults whose schedules keep them from achieving the level of health and fitness they desire. I have three-prong approach that teaches people how to better understand their bodies from a more holistic approach. Closely examining their whole-body movement pattern, we can identify imbalances and compensations. We then look at how they are fueling and nourishing the body for its systems to be able to harmonize well. And third, we learn and apply methods of recovery, building as we relax and healing to create more.
My primary focus is to provide tools, techniques and information that inform and enables clients to work confidentially and more successfully with life’s transitions, to recognize the beauty of strength and to ultimately have a sustainable, healthy, and active lifestyle that allows them to feel good, move well and look good.
As an older, active adult who through the years has had a number of injuries, it is through my own experience that I recognize the possibilities and the rewards of a sustainable healthy lifestyle. My students benefit from the many years of study and experience I have tallied up.
My clients can rely on me as a resource for them as I answer their questions and provide options they perhaps hadn’t considered. It also allows me to work closely with them and their healthcare providers to resolve issues that may come up. This gives my clients a great base of support, relieves some of the stress and saves them time. They move forward confidently and efficiently.
No matter how locomotion is accomplished, or the maintenance of the body’s beautiful, intricate systems dancing harmoniously together, it requires intention and attention, making space to put your mind towards that which we value most, good health.
People often ask me what’s my motivation to be doing the work I do for so many years. My answer is always the same. I know everyone wants to be healthy and wants to be fit. So, I teach the skills, the drive and the appreciation of beauty in strength. People are able to gather up the know-how to be able to move about meeting the demands of their environment while creating memorable experiences throughout their lifetime.
Through the years, I danced, jogged, hiked, practiced Kung Fu, Judo, taught Aerobics and did a little swimming. I continue to be active lifting weights, practicing yoga, walking, and teaching. I’m excited to get back into my garden again.
I loved then and still love learning and experiencing those things that offer an opportunity for fun, expansiveness, and growth, both physically and mentally. I continue to study, adding to my college degrees and certifications. In addition, I’m writing a book having fun with the grands, and, yes, still teaching.
Ellen Brook: Bringing Color and Creativity to Walls, Wardrobes & Workplaces
Ellen Brook is an artist and designer bringing color and creativity to walls, wardrobes, and workplaces. Her works transform outfits as well as states of mind. These are unique, and often, signature pieces. Her artistic adventure began at the age of 40 following a career in corporate and non-profit communications. Ellen maintains an art practice, creates “luxuriously down-to-earth” apparel and interior goods, and hosts workshops. Her work has been featured in art shows and the media, and modeled on Bay Area runways. She is also on the Advisory Board at Canada College’s Fashion & Design Department. Ellen’s website is at https://ellen-brook.com/
Currently On Display. Ellen now has a number of the hanging artworks at the UCSF China Basin Medical Building lobby, which will be in place, cheering patients and healthcare workers alike, for the next six months.
Existing Portfolio Availability. Ellen has an existing portfolio of silk works, both in fashion and interior artwork. In addition to silk, she also works with a variety other “feel-fabulous” fabrics and artistic media. Much of her work can be found at her studio at Art Bias at 1700 Industrial Road in San Carlos, California. Her clothing and other artworks are also on sale at Ivy Boutique in San Mateo (55 E. Third Avenue in San Mateo, California) and at its new satellite space in the Ferry Building in San Francisco.
Current Focus. Ellen’s current focus is on both working in mixed media and acrylics and on printing wraps in modal and cashmere based on her paintings. Over the past few years, she has developed a series of mixed media and acrylics called “Message in a Bottle.” The theme for “Message in a Bottle” emerged when Ellen’s father passed and she discovered his letters, and her grandfather’s letters, and incorporated aspects of their messages into her work. The shape of a bottle emerged in one of the first paintings she did with the letters, and since then, she has been exploring the idea of a message in a bottle sent through time.
This is a whimsical and beautiful series of works and resonates with a lot of people! She is just finishing a series of these paintings called “Take me out of the blue”, which is based on letters that her grandfather (whom she never met) wrote to her grandmother when he was stationed in Europe in 1919 and feeling terribly lonely. She’s also creating “mini bottles,” which are paintings sized 6″x 6″ that can be hung singly or in groups. Ellen is having a great time with these little mini-bottle paintings! These paintings are very affordable and volume purchases are discounted. These make great gifts, especially with Valentine’s Day coming up.
New Workshops and Collaborations in Development. Ellen is also developing some workshop and collaborative ideas around this theme of a message in a bottle. Using art –whether it’s the experience and process of making it – or the visual itself, helps bring people together and elicit emotions that organizations can use to make connections internally or communicate about their products and/or services.
Meet The Member: Jeannie Twomey
Meet the Member! This blog is one in a series of posts dedicated to learning a little more about one of our PWBC members.
Jeannie Twomey is a real estate investor who has been a member of the PWBC for nearly ten years. She is passionate about sharing her investment experiences with others and explore a wide variety of real estate investment opportunities, from residential rentals to mobile home parks.
Jeannie grew up on her family’s farm in the Central Valley of California where her parents and other family members still live today. She graduated from California State University, Sacramento with an accounting-focused business degree. After earning her CPA with Deloitte, she spent her early career in banking. This eventually led her to the bay area, working for Wells Fargo at their headquarters in San Francisco. Although there was a big contrast between her farm roots and her city life, she felt equally at home in both places and enjoyed the diversity and cultural events offered in the San Francisco bay area. In addition to working at banks, she and a group of leaders started a finance company and then she was recruited away to be part of a team to spin off a division of Nomura Securities in New York. Afterwards, she found herself back in banking, this time on the peninsula. Deciding the commute was taking up too much of her time, she decided to call Redwood City home.
After a layoff, and because she was raised by entrepreneurs, she launched her own consulting business in 2003, focused primarily on helping public companies with their regulatory filings. About this same time, she started exploring network marketing in the health and wellness area. While her network marketing business did not lead to big wealth, it did give her a great education in personal development and a taught her the importance of focusing on purpose and resilience. It also led to travels and friendships around the country. The motivational speakers who spoke at conferences she attended gave her a refreshed open mindedness to possibility, opportunity and learning new skills.
When she and her husband decided to rent out their second home in 2015, she realized there was much to learn and know about operating a real estate business to do it successfully. They chose Elite Legacy’s program with multiple courses in everything from Foreclosures to Creative Financing. The network of other real estate investors and program affiliates she met in this program resulted in a variety of investments, including single-family home rentals outside of California, flip investments in Florida, an airbnb in Arizona and financing of mobile homes.
When not working on real estate, Jeannie can be found out in her garden or spending time with family and friends. She loves to read, travel, meet new people and enjoy a glass of wine while teaching herself to paint with watercolors.
Essential Oils by doTerra are Clean, Green, Pure, and Powerful
Adrienne Fink is an essential oils Wellness Advocate with doTerra Essential Oils. She started her journey with essential oils in December 2014. She is certified in “Aromatouch Technique” and “Symphony of the Cells” topical essential oil applications. Adrienne is a strong advocate for using certified pure therapeutic grade oils to change your life.
DoTerra emphasizes purity in its products. The Essential Oil industry is not officially regulated so other brands that profess to sell essential oils can include all manner of nonessential additives. In contrast, doTerra IS 100% pure and the company believes purity is the most important factor. At doTerra the product lines are tested and sampled for purity and effectiveness. DoTerra searches worldwide for the best ingredients and conducts over 50 tests on a single batch of oils to prove they are pure, potent, and effective. The bottle even reveals all the testing that is conducted. DoTerra also cares about the sources from which it gets the ingredients for its essential oils. DoTerra does not own any of the farms but buys from selected sources and invests in the infrastructure of the locations and in the people where good sources are located. Do Terra does “co-source impacting” which means, for example, doTerra will go in and build a well or a school or finance better education but leave the property ownership to the people who live at the location. DoTerra is all about heart and helping others.
DoTerra is changing the world one drop at a time. DoTerra’s mission is to “change the world one drop at a time.” You don’t need more than one drop of doTerra oils to realize an effect. DoTerra’s mission of change extends to its own carbon footprint. DoTerra no longer uses bubblewrap in its packaging, and only uses sustainable packaging, which will significantly reduce its carbon footprint over the next 2-5 years. “DoTerra” means the gift of the earth and it lives its mission!
DoTerra Abode product line. DoTerra has a new product line called Abode. Abode represents a new formula with new scents using eleven different essential oils , known for their cleaning qualities. Abode features multi-use products including a surface cleaner, dishwashing liquid (machine and hand), laundry soap, handwashing liquid, and hand lotion. Of course, like all other doTerra products, Abode does not include any harsh chemical ingredients, only essential oils. You do not need harsh chemicals to clean your environment. More people are realizing that harsh chemicals that are included in a lot of cleaning solutions can have negative health effects over time! The Abode product line uses clean, green ingredients and sustainable packaging and is just as effective at cleaning as the products with harsh additives. The Abode product line comes in recyclable aluminum bottles that can be decanted into the glass dispenser bottles. As with all DoTerra products, responsibility and sustainability are important.

Meet the Member: Gloria Guzman
Meet the Member! This blog is one in a series of posts dedicated to learning a little more about one of our PWBC members.
I am currently a member of the Rotary Club of Brentwood and Past President of the Rotary Club of San Mateo Sunrise 2017 – 2018 and currently a member of Delta Networking Partners (DNP) served as President of DNP (2019-2020) in East Contra Costa. I am most passionate about seeing the world and sharing new experiences with my family and friends. At times my family travels together and at times we travel with our individual families. However, I do believe time alone with my hubby is very important which is why we plan our own escapes as well. We take at least one FAMILY trip per year which includes my children and their families. These are memories that last a lifetime!
As, a native San Franciscan, from the beginning I have been immersed in experiencing a multitude of cultures in one of the world’s finest melting pots. I am the second youngest of eight. We did not grow up with much, however, we never were without lots of LOVE, a home, and mom’s delicious wholesome Tex-Mex cuisine. Mom’s flautas were my favorites! As a young girl, I was always admiring the glamorous flight attendants and their fashion. I dreamed of becoming one and traveling the world. My mom was a homemaker and dad was a roofer raising three sons and five daughters. My parents never seemed to have a break when it came to caring for their family. At an early age, my mom has been my source of inspiration and love, always encouraging me to follow what was in my heart and dreams. She was the most loving person when it came to her family leaving us too soon to Leukemia at the young age of 67. I fell in love at a very young age with my middle school sweetheart. We were married in 1980 and will soon be celebrating our 41st wedding anniversary! We have 3 amazing children. I am a happy grandma of 3 beautiful young ladies and 3 adorable little boys. As young parents, we made many sacrifices to provide the best life we could give to our family. I finished high school and worked in the Credit Union industry for nearly 30 years. My husband worked for the San Francisco Giants for nearly 20 years before starting his own business. We were busy to say the least!
Even then, we made it a priority to spend time together and plan small getaways. We did what we could at the time and planned a trip every other year with the children, and a trip every other year with just the two of us. As time went on, we were able to do more and see more. Although I was unable to fulfill my childhood dream as a flight attendant, I have been so fortunate to have traveled to more places than I could have ever imagined with my loved ones, friends and new friends.
I am now living my dream and remember “strangers are just friends waiting to happen!”….
Dress For Success
For a recent presentation to our Connections group, PWBC Member Catherine Miller offered her savvy advice for dressing ourselves this season, and beyond.
Catherine reminds us: Clothes can change lives. How we dress affects the way that we act and interact with others. Our dress and outward appearance affects how others respond to us and most importantly, how we feel about ourselves. As a Cabi clothing consultant she has seen how lives can change with a new look. She loves working with women as they work to feel and look their very best. And she guarantees that it doesn’t have to mean starting from scratch or spending a fortune.
A few of her most valuable tips include:
Steering clear of things in our wardrobe that can only be worn one way or in one location. She tells us “No One Hit Wonders!” If an item is not versatile and you can’t see wearing it beyond the one event that you have purchased it for, don’t buy it. It does not enhance your wardrobe to have a collection of pieces that are nice but isolated. Being able to mix and match for all areas of your life and sorts of occasions and events is the key to a functional wardrobe.
When it comes to Zoom looks – stand out! Don’t wash yourself out in your background by wearing muted colors or no color at all. Brighter colors pop and make your presence known, ensuring you will be seen and heard. V-necks are universally attractive and flattering for all sizes and shapes. Accessorise and be sure to keep a tube of lipstick or gloss at your desk so that you can complete your look before you turn your camera on. It is quite easy to take your look from average to extraordinary with a little color – in your clothing and on your face.
Focus on layering, which is a great way to add interest to your look and be prepared to take it from day to evening without a fuss. Consider layering with 2 different colors, which is pretty standard. If you are interested in using a print, be sure to have something more basic with which to pair it so it doesn’t draw attention in the wrong way. Watch your fabrics and mix them thoughtfully so as not to have too heavy a look. And always be mindful of your proportions, balancing out the top and the bottom. Remember that everything you throw on can’t be bulky and loose and still look great.
As for fall trends, printed leggings are a great addition to your wardrobe. Have fun with them. Items in this year’s Cabi collection, as always, go easily from day to night without taking a break. Catherine talked about fabrics to enjoy this season that include parachute polyester and soft corduroy, just to name a few. And accessories that are trendy now include heavy, gun-metal menswear inspired items that are bold and unique.
