Hi, I’m Steph Grainger - and I’m a woman in business just like you.
Since 2010, I’ve been navigating the ups and downs of entrepreneurship - and the thing that’s made the biggest impact on my journey?
Real, honest connection with other women in business.
Not ads.
Not funnels.
Not social media hacks. Just genuine conversations, shared experience, and trusted support.
---
Over the last 15 years, I’ve led countless networking groups and women’s circles - from kitchen tables to community halls and online rooms.
Creating safe, empowering spaces where women in business can connect, grow, and thrive together isn’t just what I do - it’s who I am.
I don’t believe in gatekeeping, cliques, or competition. I believe in women helping women — sharing, celebrating, and supporting one another every step of the way.
What You Can Expect From This Community:
✔️ A true network of like-minded women
✔️ Meaningful connections that lead to real opportunities
✔️ Support during the hard days, and celebration on the great ones
✔️ A reminder that you’re never doing this alone
This isn’t just about business growth.
It’s about how you grow - with confidence, with clarity, and with women who genuinely want to see you succeed.
If you’ve been craving community that feels real - not performative...
If you want to build your business without burnout or isolation...
If you're looking for a place where your voice is heard and your work is seen...
Then this is your next step.
