Owning or starting a business can sometimes be a lonely endeavor, and make you wonder if you are the only one who experiences the struggles that come with creating something new. This can be especially salient for women in business.

It doesn’t have to feel that way, you are not alone! Do you want to learn from other women who have built and are building local businesses? Whether you manage a company, own your own business, have an idea for a start-up, or are self-employed, this community is for you!

On Thursday December 8 from 6-7:30PM we are hosting the launch party of Sisterhood Community Wellness Network, a business network for women in Davis and the surrounding area. This network will organize exciting and recurring events to help encourage female business leaders to create and share their best work.

Who are we?

Elissa Kennedy is a ICF Certified Holistic Wellness, Mindset and Mental Fitness Coach. She supports women to discover how to awaken their visionary mindset, connect to their true self, and take focused action.
