Hi, I'm Nikki 👋 I’m a tech founder, small business owner, and someone who’s spent a lot of time figuring things out the hard way. A lot of my business journey has been… pretty isolating. Late nights. Figuring things out on my own. Not having many people I could ask questions or bounce ideas off. I needed help - I just didn’t know where to go. Then something unexpected happened. I applied for an award (mostly to try and get funding)… and found myself surrounded by a group of incredibly smart, generous, kick-ass women. And it hit me: This is what’s been missing. Fast forward a little, and I found myself sitting in rooms hearing the same conversations over and over again… "There's a funding gap..." "We need more female founders..." “Why aren’t more women applying or showing up…” But the truth is — there are already so many women building incredible businesses. They’re just often overlooked because they don’t fit the mould. Or the spaces themselves aren’t designed for them - for women balancing work, family, and everything in between. And I was tired of hearing the same solutions too… More mentoring. More coaching. When what I (and so many others) really needed was: 👉 People in it with you 👉 A space to ask questions 👉 Access to funding, programs, and opportunities 👉 Real, practical support Because doing this alone is hard. But together? We can actually change things. The goal is simple - to reach 1,000 members and create real impact. To build a space where women support women (and allies). And as we grow, to create real opportunities - funding, scholarships, and support for women building businesses. So welcome - I'm really glad you're here 🤍 I’d love to hear - what are you working on at the moment? Pull up a chair. 🪑
