Wendi Giuliano is a multi-dimensional entrepreneur whose life and leadership are rooted in connection, community, and personal growth. As a Reiki Master healer, intuitive card reader, and frequency device practitioner, she blends ancient wisdom with modern energy practices to help others align with their highest vibration. She brings that same intentional energy into her leadership roles as a Regional Director and local Managing Director with Polka Dot Powerhouse, where she leads from the heart - and always with purpose. She’s all about tuning into the power of energy, frequency, and vibration - and embracing the fun tools that go along with it. A self-described connection craver and nature lover, Wendi is most in her flow when walking on the beach, basking in the warmth of the sun, or breathing in the sweet scent of plumerias. You’ll often find her moving her body with joy - whether it’s a peaceful walk, playful pickleball, or aerial yoga that keeps her soul lifted and her energy high. Wendi lives her life with radiant authenticity, and invites others to do the same - one aligned breath, movement, and meaningful connection at a time.

A proud Polka Dot Powerhouse member since 2014, Mindy Van Vleet holds the distinction of launching the very first chapter in California - and on the entire West Coast! Her core purpose is simple yet powerful: to ensure others feel truly heard and to remind them that the power to achieve their dreams already lives within them. Now living in Idaho with her husband Dave, Mindy cherishes her family deeply. She’s the proud mom of two daughters and three amazing grandchildren. Mindy finds joy in golf, gardening, and horseback riding. A fun fact? She was part of an award-winning equestrian precision drill team for many years! Her flair for floral arranging, setting beautiful tables, and adding those finishing decorative touches makes her a natural at entertaining and event design. She's also a self-proclaimed “collector of hearts” and adores home decor that radiates warmth and love. Whether she’s creating beauty, inspiring connection, or supporting others on their journey, Mindy brings heart, creativity, and a spirit of joy wherever she goes.

“What resonated with me most was Shannon’s story, and how she started this from the love she shared with her sister. I lost my own sister in 2019, so the idea of finding sisterhood again, even in a different way, moved me deeply. Polka Dot Powerhouse feels like a space to rebuild that kind of connection, with women who truly see and support you.”

Curious minds are always welcome here! Whether you're wondering what makes our sisterhood so special, how to visit a chapter, or if you need to own a business to join (spoiler: you don’t!), we’ve got you covered. Let’s get those questions answered so you can feel the magic for yourself.
Polka Dot Powerhouse is a worldwide community of positive, purpose-driven women in every stage of life who are committed to connection, collaboration, and celebration. We’re a sisterhood where meaningful relationships, personal growth, and shared success come first.
This community is for women of all ages, backgrounds, and industries who are ready to connect deeply, collaborate genuinely, and grow boldly. Whether you're an entrepreneur, professional, creative, or in a season of transition...you belong here.
We’re connection-focused first. Relationships come before referrals. There are no cliques, no elevator pitches, and no pressure—just real women building each other up through meaningful relationships.
Not at all! While many of our members are entrepreneurs, others are in corporate careers, retired, in creative fields, or exploring what’s next. What truly matters is your mindset. If you value connection over competition and believe in supporting others while growing yourself, you belong here.
We have over 50 chapters across the U.S., Canada and the UK, with both in-person and virtual options! After watching the replay, you’ll get info on how to visit a chapter near you or attend as a guest online.
