Accomplished women. And the full life around the work.

For 20 years, Wonder Women has gathered exceptional women around private dinners hosted in members' homes. Two things are true: we are serious leaders, and we have fun together. We are building something for the ups and downs of life.

We are going to be here for each other for a long time. Even into old age.

I hate networking. But I love connecting. A room full of women who have done remarkable things. We connected as humans first.

I am continually impressed and grateful for the connection with this remarkable group of female executives. Here's why this community stands apart: truly engaging and supportive, self-regulating with high trust, unparalleled helpfulness. Kudos to Yao for curating such an exceptional community of badass, smart, and kind humans.

You get what you give.

Wonder Women is not a service. It is a community. People help you because they know you. Because they like you. Because you have shown up for them.

The dinner is the door. What happens after is up to you.

Reciprocal by design

Help flows both ways. The members who give the most receive the most. We do not sell access. We invite participation.

360° support

Career is one part. Members help each other through kids, parents, divorce, health, new cities, new chapters. The whole person.

20 years of compounding

Relationships built over years pay off in decades. The longer you stay, the deeper the network. The deeper the network, the more it gives back.

Vouch

Strategic introductions, between people who trust each other.

Vouch is a curated referral exchange for vetted members. Each membership tier comes with vouches you can use to make high-trust introductions across the community. Earn more by helping others. Or purchase more when you need them. Every Vouch participant is invited and vetted. Trust is the Key.

When is the last time you felt truly celebrated for who you are? These dinners bring together accomplished women who want more than surface-level networking.

The Long Game

Built for the next 30 years, not the next 30 days.

Golden Girls Compound

Shared living. For real.

Most networks think about the next quarter. We are thinking about retirement. Golden Girls is shared living for the long arc of life. Real homes. Real time together. Real plans for how we want to spend the second half.

Not a retreat. Not a getaway. Where we live.

Some of the best networking I've experienced lately doesn't feel like networking. It feels like dinner.

Last night was amazing! Absolutely loved the format and location. Thank you for hosting such a unique gathering of truly wonder women. It was fantastic to meet such a diverse group of powerhouse ladies uniting around similar issues and new friendship. I left last night with a buzz of energy excited about all the new connections and ideas that emerged from the evening.

That was the culmination of magic, personality, intuition and ambition all wrapped up with an amazing dinner, some wine and a great hostess! I didn't realize how one night could re-invigorate my sense of self, drive in career and excitement for the future.

You throw THE BEST dinner parties! I was on a high for a full 24 hours after this event, soaking in all of the drive, purpose and mischievous hilarity of this powerhouse group. I can hardly wait for the next window dressing adventure!

The biggest thanks for having me last week. What an amazing group of women. Zero pretense, endless smarts, huge laughs. One of my most magical nights in Seattle since coming from NY. Thanks for making me a part of such a labor of love.

Thank you for curating this group of women that I got to spend an amazing evening with. Sometimes it's easy to tell ourselves we have our tribe and fake it till we make it. Being with these women made me feel truly understood from both a corporate perspective and a boss lady perspective. I don't think I've ever been so interested in getting to know every person in the room.

Where Members Work

Across industries. Across the world.

Every major company sits at our tables.

Members come from Fortune 500 leadership, top venture firms, leading media, academic institutions, non-profits, and the startups shaping what comes next.

And many more.

I've been in enough rooms to know the difference between a networking event and a community. This was unmistakably the latter. What struck me wasn't the credentials in the room. It was the quality of presence. Women leading at the highest levels, choosing to show up with curiosity and generosity, not agenda.
