Testimonials
I joined the understory in response to a longing for more community. What surprised me most about understory is the depth of the reflections we share and process together. It truly is a safe space for women+ to come together as they are and connect deeply. -Leah“It sounds cliche but I was looking for a place to belong. As a woman and a Black woman, not many spaces have been safe for me. If I’m safe in my womanhood, im not safe in my skin. That being said, it was a complete surprise to log in and see such diverse ages, ethnicities, and work industries. Yes somehow we all shared similar experiences. Don’t knock the effects of being surrounded by the right people. I left energized and inspired.” - KD
“The wisdom from those who do what I don't and vice versa is at top of mind. How I attack certain work now is vastly different just because of one conversation I had. If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together. Leaning on collective wisdom is my jam, and the Understory has plenty of it!” - Kia
“Come in ready to be yourself! No professionalism shield, no masking, just who you feel authentic as. Meet the people, ask the questions, and watch your life expand :)” - Solopreneur serving education organizations
