A club for founders and founders-to-be who are building brands of the future.

We started as friends getting together for dinner (and wine) to talk about business, life and ideas. Big ideas. 

Now we’re a club for founders and almost-founders who are building brands of the future. And we’ve also got a top-rated podcast to immortalise the intimate and inspiring convos we have forever.

lady-brains is less about the endgame, more about supporting founders through the turbulence and triumphs along the way.

One conversation, one founder, one brand at a time.

This is lady-brains.
