FOR WOMEN LEADING 6-, 7- AND 8-FIGURE BUSINESSES
Nobody built the next part for you, so we'll build it together.
The Dames® is the international peer growth ecosystem for women leading 6-, 7-, and 8-figure businesses, where your business grows in alignment and so do you.
About five minutes. A real person reads every word, and you'll hear from us within 72 hours.
IF YOU'VE ALREADY BEEN IN ONE OF OUR ROOMS
Then you already know what this feels like.
Nobody pitched you or postured at you or performed. Somebody asked a real question out loud, and half the table (or breakout room) answered it like they had a stake in how it turned out.
You drove home (or put the computer to sleep mode) lighter than you arrived, which almost never happens after a ‘networking thing.’
That wasn't the event being unusually good. That's a Tuesday.
This is where that becomes yours every month, with the same women, who by month three know exactly what you're building, and you're developing the skills and courage to ask for help in ways they can respond. (We know you're the show up and 'do the work' kind of woman.)

BEFORE ANYTHING ELSE
You did something most people never do.
By the time you crossed $100K, you were already in the estimated top 2 to 12% of women-owned businesses in the United States, and if you did it in another country it was an even bigger challenge. You did it mostly alone, on 60 and 70-hour weeks, rarely putting yourself first, many of you while raising children and all of you while running a household.
Almost none of that was seen. Almost none of it was recognized.
We see it.
We'd also like to make the next part considerably less lonely.

THE TIME
100+ introductions
One ask from TaVona brought back more than 100 warm introductions and 55 interviews, double what she'd hoped for, plus four podcast features and a proposal bigger than she expected.
TaVona Denise
A shorter sales cycle
“Meaningful referrals and cross-referrals that have shortened my sales cycle.”
Kara Williams
And the decision you've been circling for a year, made in one session, because six women in the room have already made it.
THE BELONGING
The real deal
“My revenue has nearly doubled and the caliber of clients I'm working with has skyrocketed as a direct result of the power partnerships, and genuine, real-life friendships, I've formed within the Dames. It's the real deal. And a no-brainer.”
Erin Thomas, Erin Thomas Communications
Met by actual peers. Helped. Learning to ask, and then receiving.

Decisions in Days

Women Who Get It
Not more relationships. Deeper ones, with women who understand what you're carrying and genuinely want you to win.
And You, Growing Too
Most women join for the business, they stay for all the aligned growth that happens for them, over and over.

Dames Power Pods
Led by members, for members, meeting monthly on the things that affect you most. The Ops Pros Pod gathers the operators to talk shop and trade secrets. The AI Pod keeps you current on what is actually changing. Quantum Leadership and Mindfulness for the Dames deep in their own evolution. MenoPod for every peri and menopause challenge nobody else will say out loud. And the LinkedIn and Substack pods, where your content gets real feedback and immediate reach.
2-3 hours per month. That's the whole ask.
You are already carrying more than enough. This was built to hand hours back rather than take more of them, which is not something most organizations at this level can say, since they ask for four to sixteen.
THE DIFFERENCE YOU'LL FEEL IN THE FIRST HOUR
We stopped competing and started co-creating.
Not a networking group. Not just a mastermind. Not a coaching program. Pieces of all of it live in here, and the whole thing runs in an ecosystem with one core difference:
In most rooms, you pitch. In this one, you ask.
You were probably trained out of asking. Whether you were told it was impolite, or improper. Told success only counts if you did it by yourself. Or you asked once and didn't get what you needed, so you stopped asking.
You kept saying yes, helping everyone, until it curdled into resentment and “I'll just do it myself; it'll get done right the first time.” And then you're up at 2am again.
Here the ask is on the agenda, and part of the curriculum, so you'll learn how to do it, and never have to find a brave moment for it. 91% of the women who apply tell us their single biggest reason for collaborating is making connections for other people, so you will arrive fluent in giving. Receiving is the practice, and if you show up, you'll become fluent and it'll show on your top and bottom lines.
Growth here means both things, the business and the woman running it. Bring your P&L and your human design chart. We speak both.
Our Values:
How We Operate
Ask, Receive, Reciprocate
We practise holistic reciprocity, and we practise it in that order. We ask specifically, because an unasked ask is a withheld gift. We learn to receive, because most of us were trained out of it. And we reciprocate, because every Dame is someone's peer and someone's "above" at the same time. Giving comes naturally to the women here; receiving is the practice.
Co-Create, Fearlessly
We believe in climbing together, not competing against one another or pitching to one another to become clients. We do not stop at collaboration — we co-create, building what comes next alongside each other. We foster an environment of empathy, intuition, love, and generosity, inspired by the legendary Princess Diana. We know that there is unlimited room for all of us to thrive.
Life at the Top is Serious Enough
Laughter and joy are at the heart of our community. We celebrate the power of lightheartedness as a catalyst for creativity, fostering an atmosphere that transcends scarcity and encourages boundless growth. We resist taking ourselves too seriously, finding inspiration in the joy of the journey.
Right Scale, On Purpose
We are committed to helping women achieve more while working less, replacing overwhelm with excellence. Through our global network of world-class women, we challenge the notion of constant hustle, proving that success can be achieved with grace and ease.
IS THIS YOU?
Who we say yes to.
The Dames is for you if you…
✓ Lead a 6-, 7- or 8-figure business, or hold a Director-and-above role inside a larger organization
✓ Want real community with women who are genuinely in it with you
✓ Show up, participate fully, and own your results
✓ Are driven by business growth and personal growth in equal measure
✓ Are down for a well-placed f-bomb now and then
It's not for you if you're…
✕ Expecting results without showing up
✕ Here out of desperation for leads or quick wins
✕ More focused on taking than on giving generously
✕ Attached to hustle culture and success at any cost
✕ Planning to pitch or promote to members (Dames sell brilliantly, just never at each other)
Do I qualify?
Leading a company in a senior role, and you identify as an “intrapreneur,” or have a side hustle that could generate six figures if it were given more focus? Recently exited a senior role but already operating your own venture?
You may qualify on what you've already built in your career rather than on last year's revenue. Tell us the one-liner in your application.
We know what we're asking.
Applying to a community is itself an ask, and if asking doesn't come easily to you, you're precisely who this was built for.
So here's the honest part. It takes about five minutes. A real person reads every word. You'll hear from us within 72 hours, and if we're not your fit, every dollar comes back with a warm note rather than a form letter.
Not ready to ask for anything yet? You don't have to. Come sit first. The Dames Connect Experience is free, virtual, and 75 minutes.
How it works
1. Apply.
About five minutes. Tell us about you and what you're building.
2. Choose your home.
A local chapter within about 75 miles, or our global virtual chapter. The membership is the same either way, and you're welcome at any chapter's events when you're in town.
3. Hold your seat.
$147 a month, or $1,600 for the year and keep a month in your pocket. Fully refunded if your application isn't accepted.
4. We read every application ourselves.
You'll hear back within 72 hours. Accepted means a welcome note, an orientation invitation, and your place in the circle. Membership runs 12 months, because trust doesn't compound in 30-day increments.
