WHAT HAPPENS INSIDE THE.LIST
An ongoing conversation with people who are paying attention.
TheLi.st is not an anonymous content feed. It's not a transactional networking free-for-all. It's an ongoing conversation with people who have your back when it matters most.
01
Conversations That Matter
Thoughtful discussion threads where members ask real questions, share insider intel and opportunities, and offer perspective that goes beyond surface-level advice. Our threads are spaces to listen, reflect, learn, and offer your authentic insights — not perform.
02
Gatherings With Intention
TheLi.st hosts regular community gatherings — in person and virtually. With a nationwide footprint, there's always a member to meet for coffee, a group in your city to go deep with, and a familiar face at the conferences that matter. You never walk into a room alone.
No one gets anywhere alone.
Connection By Design
A curated member directory so you know exactly who's in the network, and personal introductions designed to build meaningful relationships — not collect contacts.
03
WHO IS THIS FOR
This is not a place for playing small.
TheLi.st is a nationwide network of leaders redefining influence and impact at the highest levels. Our members include New York Times bestselling authors, Pulitzer Prize–winning journalists, Oscar-, Emmy- and Tony-winning producers, TED headliners, corporate changemakers, social-impact pioneers, game-changing founders and thought leaders shaping the national dialog about women & success.
What unites all of our members is a drive to do big things in the world — and a belief that the right community makes those things possible.

WHAT MEMBER SAY
From the community
Cindy Gallop
Founder & CEO, Make Love Not Porn
"I've been blown away countless times by how much TheLi.st has demonstrated the impact of women coming together en masse to lift each other up, spread word of each other's successes, provide empathy and solutions for each other's challenges."
Jessica Bennett
Journalist and Author
"Over the course of a decade, TheLi.st has helped me negotiate fees, up my rates, commiserate after heartbreak, and introduced me to some of my closest advisors. It is perhaps the only community that has led me to my IP lawyer, my speaking agent and my OB-GYN."
"There is literally no community anywhere that could even begin to compare to the magic that is created within TheLi.st. The numbers of jobs secured, problems solved, funds raised, start-ups birthed — is nothing short of miraculous."
Susan McPherson
Founder & CEO, McPherson Strategies
You already know what it's like to be the only one in the room who gets it. This is the room where everyone does.
If that's what you've been looking for — an application is the next step.
