Found & Flourish Avis 

I joined Found & Flourish last month after feeling the need to connect with more likeminded people and I’ve already made so many lovely connections!

What a wonderful day. I have been to 3 F&F events so far, 2 in person and 1 virtual and all have been great. Everyone is so welcoming, so friendly, there is no judgement, and no one is in competition. The women I have met at all 3 events are genuinely there to support each other, and to learn from one another. I have also made some great contacts through the members area.

I met Lara at an IWD event she was sponsoring in 2020, just before we went into the first lockdown, and was enthralled by her warmth and energy. Then when she launched the F+F online community I jumped at the chance of being part of it, because I wanted more of that warmth and energy in my life. She managed to create a community who make you feel like you are getting a virtual warm hug every time you interact with any of the members. I've connected with so many more founders and businesses through this community, collaborated a number of times which has helped my brand grow, and had a lot of help and support in areas of my business I am inexperienced in. If you are new to the community then I suggest signing up for Coffee Roulette, you will make lots of new friends, and who knows what opportunities shake out for the both of you. I am so lucky that I met Lara and joined F+F when I did - the past few years would have been a very different (and not so great) story for me.

I found my co-founder within the Found & Flourish community. During an online Hugs & Brunch, I had the chance to meet Gigi virtually. I immediately felt an alignment between her expertise and my vision for a product I wanted to build, so I decided to connect with her right after. Since then, we have been working together on Yocory. I'm so glad that Found & Flourish brought us together.

I joined Found & Flourish ahead of launching my new business last year. I've been self employed in another capacity for several years and it can be a lonely journey. I knew with this new venture that I wanted (and needed!) to be more proactive in building my business 'village' and having been a huge fan of Found & Flourish since the early days, I was really excited to join. I've absolutely loved getting to know other members, especially the 'Coffee Roulette' which is just fabulous. I've tended to watch the workshops and masterclasses on replay due to childcare constraints which have been fab. I've been so impressed at the quality of these and it feels like I'm getting a really top-rate business education which is just incredible value for the monthly membership fee.
