A Note from the
Founder of AWL
YOU ARE THE REASON
Hey Pretty Girl! I'm super pumped you've made it here. So listen, if you're like me and only read every 5th word in long-winded emails and text heavy websites... read this one sentence: The most important thing we want you to know is that AWL Creative is a positive space, with kind people. AWL focuses on nurturing your business' growth by providing the spaces, tools, and resources women need. However, if you're someone that needs a bit more information before making any important decisions, I want you to understand why I started AWL and why (I believe) it's so important for women - both professionally and personally.
- a note from the founder -
I'm a straight shooter with zero tolerance for bullshit, and also an open book. Super transparent - sometimes to a fault. So believe me when I tell you... I have zero fucking clue what I'm doing, like 76.8% of the time and I certainly don't pretend I have all the answers when it comes to AWL. I’m sure as hell not an expert, educator or consultant. I don’t know the first thing about accounting, sales, or analytics. But I am smart enough to ask the people who do know and invest in the women who show up for me (this will become very apparent later in my story). I’m a big fan of throwing things against the wall and seeing what sticks. I learn through trial and error and admit when I fuck up. I also know there are some things that can only come from experience. It's with the help of my business partner, many other brillant women, and a bit of dumb luck that I’ve somehow built a successful business concept that is wanted and needed by female entrepreneurs in Northern Virginia and surrounding areas.
Trial and error
this is my story...
It’s become insanely clear that female entrepreneurs across the country need what we have created here at AWL. So, we are working our asses off to expand into other major markets over the next five years, with a goal to be nation-wide within ten. I believe that women should have every opportunity that men have when it comes to business growth and generating revenue – we just have to create it for ourselves.
equal opportunity
I truly am SO happy I found AWL when I did. Due to quarantine, I was starting to feel super demotivated in my work after connecting with virtually no one for 6 months. I definitely needed a new space to work in after so long in my home office, but wanted to make sure I landed in a place that helped us be as safe as possible. So I feel very lucky to have found AWL as a place to work outside of my house, meet new people, and expand both of my businesses through amazing connections there.
