Hi, Love! I’m Lisa Nicole Rosado, Founder, Chief Motivator, and Big Idea Generator of We Are Women Owned.
Virgo sun. INFP. Enneagram 2w3… or maybe 3w2. Personal assessment enthusiast (obviously). Winged liner expert. Proud Latina. Originally from The Bronx.
After a decade of working as a retail buyer in New York City, I struck out on my own to start a lifestyle blog, The Style Theory, and TST Collective, an online boutique.
Leaving my corporate job to follow my passion was exciting, but it was also lonely.
Most days, it was just me, my laptop, and my inventory. I didn’t have anyone to walk me through how to set up an email automation, help me brainstorm a marketing plan, or celebrate with me when I had a major win.
I found myself craving connection and sisterhood, and I wanted a space where I felt comfortable asking questions and leaning on people who understood what I was going through.
Buuut the groups I found were usually highly competitive, intimidatingly enormous, or financially out of reach.
I couldn’t find the community I was looking for… so I created it:
We Are Women Owned.
Helping you build a thriving life and business is truly my life’s work and greatest joy.
