About Women Thrive
Women Thrive Media, the parent company of Women Thrive Magazine and the Women Thrive Summit, is on a global mission to create an independent media platform that spotlights, celebrates, and empowers women in business and entrepreneurship to succeed and thrive.
Women Thrive Media was founded in 2020 during the midst of the lockdown when uncertainty was high and most people were looking for guidance and community to get through the difficult and unprecedented situation.
Our first international event scheduled for Atlanta, GA, USA was cancelled due to concerns about public safety and we had only a few short weeks to pivot the live event to virtual. But our mission of helping women not only survive but thrive in business and in life was still at the forefront of the event.
It didn’t matter where we were located in the world, we knew we all needed a community and a safe and supportive space where women could share their stories, expertise, knowledge, and more. This was the turning point where women began to rise to their power. They claimed their voices and were determined to conquer any challenges put before them.
Whilst the government said that women were particularly affected, we did not spend time feeling sorry for ourselves, but instead began to build businesses, started new ventures, supported our families, strengthened our communities, published books, and inspired each other to rise to our full potential.
This proves that when we set our minds to accomplishing goals, anything is possible and that women, in particular, are strong, resilient, resourceful, and determined.

Our Mission
The Women Thrive Media mission is simple – to create an independent media platform geared towards women in business and entrepreneurship. Our goal is to spotlight the incredible stories of women who inspire others to rise and thrive beyond circumstances and adversities.
We are an impact-over-profits organisation
Being an impact-over-profits organisation means that any profit we make goes back into creating a more meaningful impact through our initiatives, so women around the globe can advance. When you support Women Thrive Media, you are directly supporting a woman-led company whose mission is to support other women-led organisations. We regularly offer sponsorship and mentoring scholarships for women, support women-led charities, and host social impact initiatives. We believe that giving back to our communities is one of the best ways we can support women in business and entrepreneurship.
Our Values
At the core of Women Thrive Media, our values are what guide us and truly show what we are all about. Empowerment, Freedom, Community
Empowerment
Our commitment to empowerment begins by providing access to knowledge, resources, and opportunities that enable women to learn, grow, and thrive. We strive to break down barriers and bridge gaps, creating an inclusive environment where everyone’s unique strengths and perspectives are valued.
We empower through inspiration, igniting the spark within women to dream big and pursue their passions with unwavering determination. We foster a culture that celebrates resilience, innovation, and the courage to challenge the status quo.
Through collaboration and community-building, we empower women to connect, support, and uplift one another. We believe that together, we can achieve more than we ever could alone. By fostering a network of empowered women, we create a ripple effect of positive change that extends far beyond our immediate reach.
We are committed to empowering not only individuals but also communities and societies at large. By addressing systemic inequalities, advocating for justice, and promoting social responsibility, we strive to create a world where every woman has equal access to opportunities and resources.
We measure our success by the positive impact we make in women’s lives and businesses. We truly believe that empowered women can transform themselves, their communities, and ultimately, the world. We are dedicated to empowering women, fostering growth, and building a better future for all.
Freedom
At Women Thrive Media we believe that freedom is a fundamental principle and the cornerstone of human existence. We celebrate and respect the autonomy of every individual, recognizing their right to make choices, express themselves, and pursue their own paths. Everyone has the right to determine their own destiny, free from unnecessary constraints or limitations.
We value equality and inclusivity, promoting a society where every person, regardless of their background, gender, race, or beliefs, is treated with fairness and respect. We embrace diversity as a strength and strive to create an inclusive environment where everyone’s voices are heard and valued.
We uphold and advocate for the protection of fundamental human rights. This includes the right to life, liberty, and security of person; freedom of thought, expression, and association; and the right to equal treatment and opportunity. We actively support organisations and initiatives that promote human rights, social justice, and equality.
Freedom knows no boundaries. We recognize that the pursuit of freedom is a global endeavour, and we stand in solidarity with individuals and communities around the world who are fighting for their rights and liberties. We support efforts to promote democracy, human rights, and freedom on a global scale.
At Women Thrive Media, freedom is more than a concept – it is a driving force that guides our actions and shapes our vision for a world where everyone can truly live a life of freedom, dignity, and fulfilment. We are committed to championing and upholding the principles of freedom in all aspects of our business and beyond.
Community
Women Thrive Media revolves around the power of community to inspire, support, and uplift women. We believe that strong communities are the foundation for positive change and personal growth.
We believe in the power of collaboration and cooperation. We encourage women to come together, share their knowledge, skills, and resources, and work towards common goals. By fostering a culture of collaboration, we amplify our collective impact and create a supportive network that nurtures growth and success.
We encourage active engagement and participation within our community. We provide platforms and opportunities for women to connect, contribute, and make a difference. By engaging in meaningful activities and initiatives, we empower individuals to develop a sense of belonging and fulfilment within our community.
We embrace a culture of shared learning and growth. We believe that knowledge and insights are best cultivated through collaboration and shared experiences. We provide educational resources and opportunities for personal and professional development, ensuring that our community members can continually learn and grow.
Our commitment is to build a vibrant, inclusive community that uplifts women in business and entrepreneurship, fosters collaboration, and drives positive social change. Together, we create a powerful force for transformation and make a lasting impact on the lives of the women and communities we serve.

Her passion for speaking and empowering others stems from her own personal experience of loosing her voice, her identity and confidence due to trauma, now that she has overcome her own life challenges and found the power in her voice she wants to make sure that no other woman has to hide her light and shy away from speaking up and sharing her story.
