April 2019: We’re headed to Boston!

Hey Sisters!

Lisa here, founder of We Are Women Owned. 

It’s my goal to send you a note at the end of each month to say hello, and tell you all about what we’ve been working on at WAWO. April has been quite the eventful month, and I can’t wait for our pop-up event that’s happening THIS weekend — can you make it?

We’re also looking to expand our community and host pop-ups outside of NYC.

Boston felt like the natural next step, not too far from home, and a city full of amazing creatives and entrepreneurs. 

That’s why I went to Boston a few weeks ago with my pup and fiancé in tow to scope out potential pop-up spaces for our September 2019 event.

I want to share my mini Boston guide with you:

• Where we stayed: The Revolution Hotel
• Favorite place to brunch & grab dessert: Tatte Bakery
• Favorite place to eat something exciting and new: Citrus & Salt (Flamin’ Hot Cheetos Street Corn is an absolute must-try!)
• Favorite local shop: Olive & Grace
• Favorite neighborhood: Beacon Hill

While in Boston, I hosted a meetup with a few Boston babes in business at Tatte — which I indulged in three times during my visit — it’s THAT delicious! The ladies and I had the absolute best time getting to know each other. I felt so welcomed by the Boston women in business. I even caught up with one of my college roommates, Christina, whom I hadn’t connected with in over 10 years.

These are the ladies that joined me:

• Jackie, WAWO’s Social Media Manager
• May, founder of Girlfriends Boston
• Courtney, founder of The Polished Decade
• Christina, co-founder of M3 Home and Decor
• Kara, lead fitness instructor and founder of the Unhesitant Podcast
• Rayna, calligrapher and illustrator

If you want to stay in the loop on all things WAWO and Boston, you can join the mailing list here.

I’m feeling grateful for my feature on The Cnnekt, a media outlet for her, him, and them that features all Voices through digital and IRL interviews to build and nurture a cultured community.

For the article, I open up about why I started We Are Women Owned and how feeling isolated from my peers and longing for a collective of female entrepreneurs prompted me to organize my first pop-up.

To wrap up my letter this month, I want to share a few of our recent blog posts with you in case you missed them before:

Wishing you a fantastic weekend and I hope to see you at our pop-up this weekend!

xoxo,

Lisa
