Our why.

Our combined experience working with female business owners and women who pioneer professional lives has led us to believe that when teamed together, there is nothing us ladies can’t achieve.

Our careers have offered us front row seats to small, medium and large businesses across many countries and industries. Yet along the way, we’ve consistently found ourselves witnessing a sense of self-doubt, imposter syndrome, inner criticism and even self-loathing in far too many amazing women.

We hear you. We feel you. And we want to change that.

Our Community exists to provide women with a genuine network of support. Strong and compassionate women who are not only qualified to offer advice but know how to have lots of fun in the process.

Our events are by invite only and offer accessible luxury and exclusive experiences to those who are ready and willing to enjoy them.

We invite you to join us in our FemPowered Community: unpack, unwind and be entirely yourself. You’re welcome here.

Yours Empowered,

Ana & Laura
