Hera Hub DC is a female-focused community and daily accelerator supporting business owners across the DMV (DC, Maryland, Virginia) at every stage of their journey.

Our local gatherings are small and curated, so conversations go deeper than an exchange of business cards. Relationships built that way become real trust — and trust is what makes women send each other work. Our virtual programming opens the door to a national community of more than 450 members. Both are built on the same idea: real relationships, built over time, with women who get it.

The Hardest Part of Running a Solo Business Is Making Every Decision by Yourself

You decide what to charge, who to hire, when to pivot, and which client to let go. You make those calls without a sounding board. It’s not because you lack smart people in your life, but because the people around you have never built what you are building.

So, you get good at performing. You say business is great when the month was thin. You answer “how’s it going?” with a version of the truth that’s easier to say out loud.

Hera Hub DC is where you take the mask off. It's a room full of women who have made the same hard calls and had the same quiet months, and who won't flinch when you say so.

What Membership Actually Gives You

There are no attendance minimums here, no required weekly meetings, and no quota of leads you owe anyone. Come to as much or as little as you want. What matters is identifying the things that will actually move your business forward, and we will help you find them — whether you have a couple of hours a month to give or you want to attend everything.
Learn More About Membership
What you get is the women and the programming: expert office hours, practical working sessions, small groups organized around accountability, and a directory of women who will actually pick up the phone. If you want somewhere to work outside your home, members get access to workspace at a member rate through our partnership with Pink Moon.

Hera Hub DC is a professional home for women who run their own businesses. A place where your work is understood by people doing the same job, where an honest question gets an honest answer, and where the relationships outlast any single event.

Curated Locally.
Connected Nationally.

  • In person, across the DMV: We host happy hours, workshops, and coworking days all across DC, Maryland, and Northern Virginia. Check out our upcoming events.
  • Virtual, across the country: We run practical working sessions with Hera Hub members nationwide. You get templates, breakout rooms, and real questions, rather than a webinar where someone talks at you for an hour and pitches at the end.
  • Expert office hours: You can take a question straight to one of our GURUs, a subject-matter expert in branding, bookkeeping, marketing, pricing, or operations. Learn more about our GURU program.
  • Learning programs: Launch Academy and Growth Academy serve women starting something new and women scaling what already works. Explore the academies.
  • Sub-hubs: Small groups form around key business topics such as business foundations, marketing, or AI. Check out our sub-hubs.

Why We Run It This Way

For four years, I built my business by myself. I felt like I was doing things the hard way. Every expensive decision got made alone, everyone else seemed to have it figured out, and almost no one heard how hard it actually was.

Joining as a member changed that. It wasn’t a new tool or a new tactic. What mattered was finally having women around me who understood the actual job and who told me the truth.

When I took over as owner of Hera Hub DC, protecting that became the whole point. So we keep the gatherings intentional, we ask real questions, and we build programming you can put to use right away rather than motivation that fades once you get back to work. The DMV is mine to run, and a national network of Hera Hub owners, GURUs, and members makes the rest of it possible.

Two businesses, one idea — solopreneurship doesn’t have to be lonely, and you don’t have to build your business the hard way.

Who Belongs Here

We welcome every stage, every industry, and every background. The wider the range of women in the room, the more useful that room is to all of us. There is a lot to take advantage of here, and we will help you focus on the few intentional hours a month that will move your business forward. Come as you are — you belong here.

Women running their own business, in any industry

Consultants, coaches, attorneys, marketers, creatives, therapists, makers, and retailers all belong here. If you own it, you qualify.

Women in a transition moment

A layoff, a pivot, a return after a life interruption, or going full-time on something that started on the side.

Women building on the side

You might have a full-time job and a business you are growing in the hours around it. You belong here too, and you can come to as much or as little as your schedule allows.

Women who want real relationships

If you have sat through enough rooms where everyone is selling and nobody is connecting, this will feel different.

Women who own their book of business

Agents, advisors, and producers who run their book like the business it actually is, rather than treating it as a job that pays commission.

Come See for Yourself

If you have been building alone long enough to know it isn't sustainable, and you still haven't found a group that feels like your people, come check us out. Come to an open event and meet a few members, or book a call and tell us what you are building.
