Announcing the Launch of The Coterie for Women

A community that helps women Live Richer Lives

Elizabeth Denham and Rebecca Monet are thrilled to announce today’s launch of “The Coterie for Women,” an online platform that empowers women from all experiences and perspectives to ‘Live Richer Lives’ by providing community, resources, mentorship, support, education, opportunity and fun!

“This is such an exciting day for us,” Monet said. “As women, we thrive in community with one another. We seek opportunities to learn and grow professionally and personally, and it’s not always easy to find women with similar interests and goals. The Coterie for Women provides opportunities for us to connect and share information, resources and perspectives with each other.”

Denham notes an exciting feature of The Coterie.

“It’s ours. We are building this community ourselves as a place to create exclusive content, explore deeper conversations, conduct richer polls and participate in online or in-person events,” she said. “By building this community separately from social media, you can have a more private, secure and valuable experience with us and each other. There are no advertisements. There is no pressure to buy anything. You can connect with women by interest, by profession, by location, etc.”

A subscription-based model, The Coterie is normally $5.99 per month, but is free to all women for a limited time. While there is no advertising from outside companies, The Coterie will offer courses, webinars and master classes for a fee if you are interested in going deeper into a topic. There will also be “circles” defined by topic that you can join for an additional $2.99 per month. Our first circles include “Women in Franchising and “Podcasts for Women.” Upcoming circles will include topics from blended families to single moms and teachers to tennis players. As we grow, the circles will expand to accommodate any interest expressed by our members.

“This is a dream come true for both of us,” Denham said. “Rebecca and I have been on parallel paths in our careers, and our passion and purpose have collided in ways that complement each other to build something really great!”

The Five Best Things About Joining The Coterie for Women:

1. Exclusive Content

• Get exclusive content and conversations you can’t find anywhere else.

2. Meet More People

• Meet people who share your interests who live near you, who do the same things or who care about the same topics.

3. Learn More

• You can make better-informed decisions about the things that are most important to you.

4. Build Community

• You can swap stories, experiences, and ideas (not necessarily advice) around our shared mission.

5. Get inspired

• Find a little inspiration, thought-provoking conversations, and expert perspective each and every day.

“This is a dream come true for both of us,” Denham said. “Rebecca and I have been on parallel paths in our careers, and our passion and purpose have collided in ways that complement each other to build something really great!”

The partnership brings together two women from different generations, different experiences, different political perspectives, different backgrounds, different points of view and one common goal. That goal is to provide a community of women who support each other in business and in life, the resources, tools and connections they need to thrive.

“We want to provide a haven for women in which everyone is welcomed and included,” Monet said. “And the fact that we are independent means that our doors are open to anyone who needs support and information.”

Denham agreed.

“Giving women a community in which they have a voice and the power to ask for advice, insight or just a friendly ear is so important to us,” she said. “We want women to feel empowered and providing them this space and the education and resources they need will benefit not just women, but the businesses they run as well.”
