WHO WE ARE

Hi, we’re Luisa and Ariana —friends and colleagues who get overly excited about breaking rules and building businesses that move humanity forward.

 
 
 
 

Over the past decade, we’ve been building successful businesses with roots grounded in deeper relationships, audacious well-being, social impact, and a dedication to spaciousness.

We believe in a future of business that focuses on community growth, collective leadership, consuming less, and turning inward for answers. All while growing financially sustainable and solvent companies creating economic freedom for every member of the team.

 
 

 
 

We know the most dramatic change happens in community, so we’re cultivating a co-created network of values-driven business innovators who want to be on the leading edge of this evolution in how we work.

 

This network is for business leaders of all backgrounds across industries who are:

  • Innately curious

  • Seeking community with peers who want to explore business and ways of working through a new lens

  • Building from a place of values-centered visibility and impact

  • Defining financial success on your own terms

  • Frustrated by the status quo and outdated constructs

  • Dedicated to moving humanity and the planet forward with your work and time here on this planet

 
 

 
 

A New kind of Network

We are the community of leaders you’ve been looking for. This network is co-created and needs your experience, ideas, and spirit to continue to make it amazing!

 

Together we:

  • Cultivate connection, support and a diverse referral network via a private Slack group

  • Meet-up monthly, virtually, for conversation and workshops on diverse topics presented by community members and friends.

  • Gather for breakout discussions, events, and workshops throughout the year including our monthly in-person meet up.

  • Build a directory of values-driven businesses

  • Support, champion, and collaborate with each other in service of making the greatest impact with our work.

 
 
 

 
 

The mold simply doesn’t suit us, so we’re breaking it. And we’re inviting you to join us.

 
 

 
 

ABOUT YOUR FACILITATORS

Luisa

I’m a serial entrepreneur, philosophy major turned accounting agency CEO with a desire to change lives by providing financial services for women business owners with big ambitions. I am also a mother, a first-generation trailblazer, and a mix of races that there are never enough checkboxes for. I’m a leading-edge creator of the reality I most want to live, seeking connection with those who see beyond what is.

 

Ariana

I am the co-founder and managing partner of a boutique brand design studio, a queer single mom of two, and a creative leader dedicated to economic equity and access through a post-capitalist business development lens. Over the years, my coaching and facilitator skills have supported countless values-driven businesses to grow by transforming big ideas into honest visual brand stories grounded in an intentional path forward.
