So what happens ... exactly?
No hierarchy of experts over novices. No leaderboards. Just a way of moving from a shared table to a shared outcome.
01
You're invited
You join by invitation
FounderShare starts invite-only, on purpose. It keeps the room small enough that trust can form, the same way it does among women who already know and vouch for each other.
02
You arrive as yourself
You build a profile
Not a resume. A picture of your mindset, your aspirations, your values, and the skills you bring. You want the other members here to be able to find you.
03
Relationships first
You hop into conversations
Join conversations that are interesting to you. You post, reply, engage. You can also search for members with similar missions and different skill sets.
04
Then the work
You take the next step
Once you have adjusted to the way we do things here, we take the next step together.
Questions we hear
If you're deciding whether this is worth the invitation, start here.
No. LinkedIn is a place to post updates and collect connections. FounderShare is where you sit down with a small group of women, build real relationships, and use them to build real products, services and businesses. Action, not performance.
No. There's no hierarchy of experts handing down advice to novices. FounderShare is built on heterarchy. One person leads in one breath and follows in the next. Everyone brings something; no one sits above anyone else.
No. FounderShare is for existing solopreneurs and small business owners, women ready to leave the corporate world for something of their own, and women just beginning to explore entrepreneurship. What matters is a willingness to connect first.
Because relationships need a room small enough to form in. Early members are shaping what FounderShare becomes from the inside - starting with people who already share the mindset and values this is built on.
You build a profile, join a group, and start talking — real discussion threads, replies, and reactions.
We hope so, but probably not. We are still early in the process.

FounderShare is invite-only while the community shapes itself from the inside. If you know someone already in, ask her for an invitation — or reach out and tell us why you belong at the table.
No membership fees yet. There will be a monthly membership once we get to that step.
