Something is shifting inside our community right now.
BrainTrust members are making decisions faster. Strategy is getting shaped in real time instead of after the fact. Ideas are being shared while they're still forming, and progress is happening in conversation instead of isolation.

This is what it looks like when women stop building alone and start building together. The clarity comes sooner. The confidence follows. And the growth compounds because it's not happening in a vacuum anymore.

Since Laurel joined BrainTrust, she doubled her company's revenue. When she talks about how, she doesn't point to one strategy. She points to the women in her Vault - what we call her small peer group- who held her accountable, stretched her thinking, and pushed her forward when she couldn't see the next step on her own.

That's the pattern we're seeing across the community. When founders have a room full of people who will tell them the truth and help them think bigger, they move differently.

Women are building businesses at record rates.

And what surrounds us matters.

The people we stay close to shape what we believe is possible. Their stories, choices, pivots, and hard-won lessons change how we think, how we decide, and how we keep going when the work gets hard.

Because building a business takes grit, but it also takes proximity, honesty, and women who understand the road you’re on.

That’s where things change.

BrainTrust Brag for our member Jennifer! 🎉

Jennifer saw a gap in the corporate gifting world where no single partner could handle branded merch, custom curation, and premium delivery all under one roof, so she built one herself. In 2022, she founded Gift House, and what started as a passion project has grown into Nashville's premier corporate gifting resource.

With an all-women team and a culture rooted in thoughtfulness, Gift House now serves businesses across the country and is moving into a newly constructed office and warehouse this September. Jennifer was recently featured in NBJ's People on the Move special edition for Women's History Month, recognizing the work she's doing and the impact she's making.

This is exactly the kind of story we love to see across this community.

Congratulations, Jennifer! 👏

There are more than 14 million women-owned businesses in the U.S. Only about 2% of them have crossed $1 million in revenue.

BrainTrust exists to change that number, one Vault at a time.
Our members meet monthly in small, confidential peer groups where they open their books, share what's really happening, and help each other make better decisions. Because getting to the next revenue milestone shouldn't require figuring it out in isolation.

Now in Nashville, Charlotte, Atlanta, and virtually. 📰 Read more about our mission in The Atlanta Journal-Constitution (link in bio).

brain trust (n.): a group of expert advisors assembled to solve complex problems by bringing diverse knowledge and perspectives to the table.

That's exactly what happens inside a Vault.

BrainTrust members come from different industries, different backgrounds, and different lived experiences. A healthcare founder sits next to a creative agency owner. A woman who just celebrated her 5th year in business is next to someone who is a lifelong entrepreneur. The perspectives are wide-ranging on purpose because the best advice rarely comes from someone who thinks exactly like you do.
BrainTrust members come from different industries, different backgrounds, and different lived experiences. A healthcare founder sits next to a creative agency owner. A woman who just celebrated her 5th year in business is next to someone who is a life-long entrepreneur. The perspectives are wide-ranging on purpose because the best advice rarely comes from someone who thinks exactly like you do.

When seven women look at the same problem from seven completely different angles, that's when the way you think starts to shift.

The value of BrainTrust comes from who's in it.

What surprises people most after their first BrainTrust experience?

Nobody gave them advice.

Instead, they sat in a room with women who are in the thick of it just like they are, sharing what's working and what's not, asking the thoughtful (and sometimes hard-hitting) questions.

That's what changes how you think and how you move.
