entrepreneurship is a lot.
Before I tell you more, I’d like to share my story with you, because I want you to know that I see you.
In 2017, I stood onstage as the only woman among 24 Ernst & Young Entrepreneurs of the Year. I’d earned the title for Los Angeles and #4 for my category in the U.S.
I’d “arrived.” All those days and nights I’d worked, head down, entirely focused on this business, were paying off. I’d earned this award. I deserved it.
Yet …
Even with all the recognition and congratulations being showered upon me, somewhere along the way, I’d lost me.
I’d achieved massive success, but where were the joy and happiness I’d envisioned at this point? Something was missing.
There had to be more to my purpose. I committed not just to finding it but also to creating lasting change, no matter what.
The success paradox is real. But things can be easier. You don’t have to white knuckle it as you wrestle with the challenges and opportunities of business and life that come with success at your level. (In fact, you can ENJOY it!)
That’s what InnerFifth is all about; bringing together powerhouse female entrepreneurs to collaborate and support each other in a safe environment.
InnerFifth is an invite-only community of diverse, vetted members. It’s a place where you can feel like you belong while also receiving expert guidance, a science-backed approach, and support in your personal and professional expansion.

Bucket List Trips
At InnerFifth, we believe in the power of travel to get you out of your comfort zone and give you a fresh perspective. Here, we’ll share a couple of our favorite travel quotes with you to help share our perspective on the importance of getting away! Andre Gide said, “Man cannot discover new oceans unless he has the courage to lose sight of the shore.” This applies to business as well as life … we believe that uprooting yourself, breaking out of routine, and immersing yourself in new places and experiences can give you the breakthrough you’ve been chasing. Henry Miller said, “One’s destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things.” And so it is in business. A shift in perspective can change everything… That’s why we enjoy our Bucket List Trips so much. They’re genuinely life-changing, and because we take them together, they’re so much fun.
InnerFifth Socials & Taste of InnerFifth Events
Alice Waters said gathering “inspires us, delightfully, to be more hopeful, more joyful, more thoughtful: in a word, more alive.”
That’s what our gatherings are all about.
Taste of InnerFifth events focus on growth, transparency, and connection with other like-minded powerhouse women founders.
InnerFifth Socials are low-key get togethers where you can have real, honest conversations with other women who really get you.
The bottom line is that InnerFifth is a sacred membership and global network that serves to create more wealth and happiness in your life.
It has the potential to transform you, inside and out, to help you make huge strides in wealth, health, relationships, and purpose, starting right now.
Because I know what it’s like to be in your shoes, to then make the transformation I mentioned above, and to emerge on the other side happier, more fulfilled, and more at peace, with greater balance and more time for what’s important to me, I really want you to join InnerFifth if it’s calling to you.
Take a moment to consider where you’ll be, personally and in business, a year from now.
Will you finally achieve your goals for revenue, while also having time for what’s most important to you?
Will you learn what you need to know to scale your business so you can finally put on your oxygen mask and take a deep breath?
Or will you spend another 12 months white knuckling your way through life and business, pressed for time, anxious, and short on knowledge and support?
If you’d prefer the former, join us… InnerFifth.

A few commonly asked questions as we go through this process together.
InnerFifth is curated group of powerhouse female entrepreneurs, multi-office professional partners, founders, VC’s Partner / Founders of Professional Firms or those who have recently exited their business. Each member must have one of these titles to become a member of our community.
We have a discerning process for bringing in members, because we believe that the sticky, connective aspects of what makes our community special is members’ growth mindset alongside their deep commitment to personal growth, and creating wealth, in a place that embraces what it means to be a powerhouse, while also being ‘yourself’. A “come-as-you-are” approach is encouraged, and the reason why confidentiality amongst our members, with the conversations they hold with one another, about the exploration they are on, is of utmost importance.
To become a member, you must own a female-founded / led operational business with an ownership stake of over 25% of the company. Your business must be at least 6 figures annually (or) you have exited your business, for at least $20M in exit value, in the last 5 years and you are considering launching another business.
Bottom line? You make payroll and as an entrepreneur, you are used to eating what you kill (so to speak!). You receive a K1 each year, and you are thinking about the basics like growth capital, strategy for your business and how to balance those things alongside the other aspects of being a whole person.
Your title is Founder, CEO, President, Chairman, Executive Chairman, General Partner, Private Practice Entrepreneur, Managing Member (of a self, or co-founded company)
Finally, your personality type must align with the Inner Fifth archetype of growth mindset and desire to align to new and expanded ways of thinking. Our members join for different reasons, but all agree to be held to their “best self” with intention.
