You don’t need another pitch deck. You need clarity. And courage.

When you’ve spent 20+ years building a career, a family, a life — starting over isn’t about proving yourself. It’s about finally building something that feels like you.
At Global Women Founders, we meet women who left corporate leadership, paused for caregiving, or moved across continents — and are now starting businesses that don’t fit the usual mold.
Take Laurence, who launched a micro-agency at 51. No investors. No Instagram. Just high-trust clients and work that lights her up.
“If I had tried this in my thirties, I would’ve burned out trying to scale. Now, I just want to build something I can be proud of at my own rhythm.”
Second-time founders don’t chase the noise. They cut through it.And in that quiet, they find something rare: a new kind of success — one that feels deeply personal.
This is the energy of GWF:
🎯 Small bets.
🤝 Real conversations.
💡 Business as a tool — not the finish line.
