About Nancy Shields
Nancy Shields has a passion to create a better world by connecting and inspiring women. She is the creator of MakeGirlfriends.com, a social networking site where women meet.share.inspire one another. Nancy’s inspiration came 2 years ago when she learned her husband was having an affair. Her choice; become a victim or turn a negative into a positive? So she positively packed her bags and took off to the other side of the country. Once home, Nancy recalls a conversation with a girlfriend about the nightmare of dating. What if we could connect women with other “girlfriends”? The concept of MakeGirlfriends.com was born and in action. It really works! Nancy encourages women to share their inspirational stories and connect. Without our “girlfriends” in life, it can get tough out there! You never know how many lives you will touch by sharing your story!
