you-can-sit-with-us style

Instead of asking for a seat at the table, we decided to start our own

We’re an intentionally intimate personal and professional development community for women changing the world.

“[This will] be one of the best experiences of your life, and you will gain life-long friendships from it. The Girls Club gave me the right feedback, asked the right questions, and provided support - and, quite frankly, "magic" - and I'm seeing the payoff happening now.”

— Amanda

You don’t just want to hustle your way to the top of the corporate ladder. You care deeply about impacting the world, and want to advance your life and career in a way that feels good. 


The reason why the things we want to see happen in the world - a clean energy future, social and racial justice, universal human rights - aren’t happening is not because too few people want them. 

They aren’t happening because no one has taken on the task of organizing the people who want the good stuff. 

And like most change agents and rebels with a cause, you don’t usually have enough hours in the day to change the world and cultivate a strategic network. 

Overwhelm has become your second language. You’re tired of trying to convince your own marketing team to actually read your ESG report, and trying to make a difference often feels like being that one person out on the dance floor, trying to get the party started. *cringe*

In fact, most of us want them. 

I know firsthand how frustrating it can be to work day in and day out to create change. 

I know many of us wonder, often, if anything we’re doing is making an impact. (It is.)

I know how lonely it can often be.

I also know how many of us there are doing this work around the globe. (And how amazing we are.)


Enter: the Girls’ Club Collective 

Where women changing the world organize (and you just have to show up). 

“I saw myself through the eyes of other women, and built a community of women who were my best cheerleaders, asked me tough questions and helped me feel connected to those doing the same hard work of changing the world."

- Danielle

We’re the anti-establishment version of the boys’ club — reimagining ambition and leading the movement of meaningful work fueled by moxie, strategy, and a little bit of magic.

That means you not only gain access to a community of people you need to know; you’ll also take a look at how you can grow as a leader, what you really want, and why your dream of living by the beach and working for yourself isn’t as crazy as it sometimes feels.

Girls Club Collective

The intentionally intimate community for impact leaders looking for an extended team, extra brains, and an energizing environment geared towards personal and professional growth.

Our Values

Changing the World is a Team Sport

We know that we can accomplish more together than we can individually. We believe in name-dropping, opening doors, and connecting dots to lift up the women around us. We believe that changing the world is a team sport.

We Embrace #RealTalk

We're here for the hard stuff, and not just the good stuff. We don't just share the polished talking points version of what happened; we'll tell you how we really got something done so that you can borrow our lessons learned to do the same. 

Curiosity Is the Answer

We don't have all the answers; and we know growth doesn’t happen when we do. We ask questions before we offer advice, give others the benefit of the doubt, and seek to better understand each other before we jump to conclusions.

Ambition, Redefined 

What got us here won't get us where we're going. We’re ditching hustle culture and trading climbing the corporate ladder for the sake of the climb to pursue ambition on our own terms. We believe in creating careers that work for our lives (and not the other way around).

Celebration for Celebration’s Sake

We celebrate the big wins, the small wins, and everything in between. We celebrate other women bragging and taking up space. We celebrate possibility — even if it hasn’t played out yet. We celebrate bucket-list vacations and calendar blocks the same way we celebrate bold moves at work. 

“I started Girls Club as a small flicker in a dark room - one that was at risk of being fully extinguished (burnout). [Now, I’m] a powerful torch, lighting the way for other women I come in contact with, and taking what I've learned and weaving it into the program design for how we empower other Asian females at my firm.”

- Stacy

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the requirements to join?

To join, you need to have at least 3 years of experience working as a change agent in some capacity - many of our members have anywhere from 5-20 (or more!).

You need to fill out our application, which includes questions to make sure our goals and your goals are aligned, and submit your credit card information (we’ll only charge you once you’re accepted).

Will the events be in person?

With the exception of our in-person summit and retreats, all Girls Club Collective programming will be held virtually.

In 2023, we do plan to introduce our first-ever IRL mastermind experience for women in the Bay Area. If that’s of interest to you, you’ll find more info in the application.

What’s the time commitment?

As with any experience, you’ll get out of this what you put in. That said, the Girls Club Collective is a GUILT-FREE ZONE. We know that some months you may be able to attend every event (yay!), and other months you may be heads down in life and work. That’s why membership is a one-year commitment (to accommodate life’s ebbs and flows). 

If you can commit to engaging with our community for an average of 2-4 hours per month, you’ll get a ton out of the experience.


How can I get my organization to sponsor my participation?

We’re so glad you asked! More than half of our Girls Club mastermind participants have been able to tap organizational personal development funds to participate, and we’d love to help you get organizational sponsorship for your participation.

You can download our GCC overview PDF here, and we’ve also created a personal development funds email template that you can leverage for this purpose. If there’s anything else that we can do to support your budget ask, please let us know!

How many people will be in the community?

We’re just getting started! March 2023 is when we’re officially opening our doors, and the sooner you join, the more you’ll get to share the community experience. Our goal is to welcome 50-100 members to the GCC by the end of 2023.

What day and time will events be held?

To accommodate as many time zones and life/career stages as possible, the bulk of our programming will take place Tuesday-Friday between 10am and 1pm Pacific. Every quarter, we will have some community events in the late afternoon Pacific time. 

You can find more detail about the mastermind schedule and dates in the application.

Can I invite someone else to join with me?

Absolutely! We believe amazing women know the best women, and we’d love for you to invite your biz BFF, favorite collaborator, and/or work crush to join, too.
