We don’t facilitate conversations or schedule meet ups.

We give you a platform to find yourself and build strong community ties with other women along the way.

We prioritize mental and physical well-being and a connected community is essential to that goal.

We don’t just host unique events. We make sure we have a lot of fun.

We are confident in who we are and we know what makes us special. We want to be transparent. There are other companies in Memphis that support connection amongst women.

You can explore our website and theirs to find out what makes us different:

Real Roots

Women’s Social Club

We want you to have the opportunity to choose what is best for you and no matter what you choose, we are happy you stopped by!

We are focused on the overall health and wellbeing of individual women. We are dedicated to helping each woman we work with on their own personal journey. We are against fake friends and surface level friendships. By building up individual women and supporting them in their connections we create a sustainable community of healthy women.

This is a questions we get all of the time. The idea of paying for friendship is kind of crazy so I am happy I can deny that rumor.

You aren’t paying for friendship, you are paying for the resources we need to support an environment where women can build friendships. That isn’t all we do! Every penny we receive goes towards supporting our overall mission and is how we build sustainable communities of safe spaces with women who live in Memphis.

Third places are are informal, public gathering spots like cafes, libraries, or parks where people connect, socialize, and build community outside of their homes (first place) and workplaces (second place). These spaces are supposed to be welcoming, low-cost spaces foster civic engagement, a sense of belonging, and are crucial for social well-being.

We will “pop up” at third places to utilize local third places so they can stay in our community. We will make you comfortable in these spaces so you can visit there with your fellow members or on your own

The purpose of the Grow! Sessions is to guide individual women on a journey of connection. Often, it takes women years to form close bonds with other women, yet women form close relationships with romantic parters within weeks or months.

By creating intimate environments and guided conversations, women can gain comfortability, trust, and faith in their relationships with other women. Meeting women in bookstores, bars, or events will help you learn names but it doesn’t help you create long lasting or meaningful relationships.

Yes, members must review and sign a form agreeing to follow our Bylaws. One of these bylaws includes 12 hours of mandatory volunteer work per year at one Better AroundUs community event.
