There Was No Room For Founders Like You. So We Made It.

You know how most founder communities act like consultants, coaches, and therapists aren't "real" entrepreneurs? FWGAF exists so you never have to feel that way again.

This is a vetted community of women founders who've built businesses that look just like yours: service-based, solo or small team, focused on freedom and lifestyle instead of scaling to the moon.

A Membership Designed Around Real Connection

Getaways
Twice A Year

Global Getaways

Gorgeous destinations, meaningful conversations, and the kinds of connections and breakthroughs that only happen when you step away.

Think destination getaways designed for real conversation, not networking bingo. Upcoming locations: Thailand and Portugal.

Hangs
Twice A Month

Group Hangs

Game nights, pottery kits, cooking classes, movie nights, and whatever else we come up with. These are the fun, interactive experiences that make this community feel like actual friends, not a networking group.

Hosted on Gatherly, where you can walk around and join conversations naturally, just like being in the same room. Not your typical Zoom call.

In Your City

Curated Dinners Worldwide

Intimate dinners in major cities. Gorgeous table, incredible food, people you'll want to stay in touch with.

Small, intentional dinners in cities like New York, London, LA, and Toronto. No pitching. Just connection over a great meal.

Every Member Vetted

A Community That Gives A F*ck

Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

01Who are the other founders in this community?
+

Women who take their work seriously and their lives just as seriously. Some run established businesses. Some are leaving high-paying careers to build something of their own. All of them are here because they want real relationships with women who are doing the same kind of work and are just as capable, ambitious, and driven as they are. Every single member is personally vetted before they're accepted.

02How much time does this actually take?
+

Membership is flexible, because it's built for founders with full lives. There are frequent community events, dinners, workshops, and calls, but nothing is mandatory to attend (though we highly recommend attending at least 1 of our global conferences!) Like anything, the more you participate, the more you'll get out of your membership.

03What platform do you use for meetings?
+

We host our community meetings on Gatherly, a platform where you can walk around a virtual room and join conversations naturally. It's designed to feel just like an in-person event. It's the closest thing to being in the same room, and our members are always genuinely surprised by how different it feels.

04What makes this different from other communities?
+

Most communities give you a Slack channel and hope for the best. We're designed with human connection at our core. Every experience is intentionally designed, and every touchpoint is face to face. No asynchronous online communities that just become another platform you need to check, or Zoom "social hours" where only one person can talk at a time. The difference is in the details, and you'll feel it from week one.

05Why is it application-only?
+

Because the quality of the room matters more than anything else. We're looking for service-based business owners and professionals-turned-entrepreneurs who are generous, thoughtful, and serious about building real relationships, and tired of showing up to rooms that don't match where they are. We keep the bar high so that every woman you meet in this community is someone worth knowing.

06What if I travel a lot or have an unpredictable schedule?
+

That's actually a plus! Our membership is designed for women who enjoy the location freedom that comes from being a founder. Membership is designed to flex around your life. Plus, in-person dinners and conferences in major cities and beautiful locations around the world mean travel is baked in (and gives you an excuse to make your plane tickets a tax write-off ).

07What happens on the personal call after I apply?
+

Don't worry, this isn't a sales call. It's a short, genuine conversation to learn more about you, what you're looking for from this community, and whether we'd be a great fit for each other. Think of it like a coffee chat, not a pitch. If it's not the right fit, we'll tell you, and we encourage you to do the same.

08How does the money-back guarantee work?
+

Show up, participate, and see what the community has to offer. If it doesn't feel worth it within your first 60 days, we'll refund you in full. We're that confident in the experience, and we only want people to stay when they are genuinely excited and committed to the community.
