the empower network
A Private Network of Powerful, Socially Conscious Women
77% of women who place high on the career ladder have a strong, trusted inner circle of women who help them make connections and circumvent traditional barriers to success.
You will have your own cohort of 8 other women leaders to support you, as well as become part of a global community of feminist leaders from across sectors. After the program ends, you will continue to be part of a community of 100+ changemakers from 38 countries.
Exclusively for Students and Alumni of the Women's Leadership Challenge

Some of our notable alums
networking
Exchanging Ideas, Opportunities, Business, and Support.
1:1 MATCHMAKING
Members are intentionally paired with other members of the Empower community for 1:1 networking meetings based on what they want to achieve in their lives, to expand their world views, and to foster collaboration opportunities.
Referral Circles
Women in our network refer business to each other, make introductions for one another, and hire one another all the time.
We hold monthly ask and give circles, where you can come ready to ask for what you need and ready to give to other women in the network.
Parties
Secret Santas, Hanukkah Harries, Holiday Parties, and Happy Hours.
The Empower women's network includes both in-person (Washington, DC) and virtual opportunities to get together with one another.
Our first in-person DC cohort having drinks and class at the Wharf!
Yearly Retreats
Regenerative Retreats with other members of the Empower community in beautiful places to recenter, reset, and ideate.
Women's Leadership Mastermind/Support Group
Let's face it - navigating a global pandemic, advancing in one's career, and smashing the patriarchy isn't easy.
At the end of the Women's Leadership Challenge, women are afforded the opportunity to join a leadership mastermind collective and support group with other ladies in the Empower Community to continue on their journey.
