GFAE was born from 20+ years of real sisterhood and the belief that knowing how to be a good friend is one of the most powerful things a woman can do. For herself and for the women around her.
We've been friends for over 20 years. That's not an accident. That's a practice.
The foundation of GFAE
Most of us met when we were fourteen. Some even younger. We're turning forty this year and we're still here, still calling each other, still showing up. That's not something you plan. That's something you build over and over through every hard thing life throws at you. And it throws a lot. We know that firsthand.
GFAE exists because we looked at what we had and realized not everyone has it. So many women are going through life without a real circle. We want to change that. Community is the whole point. Everything else grows from there.
Day 22 and Her Community are where we live right now. More is coming. We're building with intention, not rushing to check boxes.
The 22nd of every month we make time for each other. No agenda, no status, just women showing up and being present. Each month we do something different, something fun, something worth looking forward to. When you're consistent about showing up for each other, something happens. You start to know each other, root for each other, become the people who are there when it actually matters. That's what we're building, a community that genuinely has each other.
● ActiveShowing up for our community goes beyond our circle. GFAE believes in giving back, feeding families, serving our neighbors, and being present where it matters. We have fed families at Thanksgiving and we keep showing up. If you want to get involved reach out to us.
● ActiveSupportive housing for women navigating life's hardest transitions. A safe place to land, stabilize, and begin again with community support every step of the way.
Housing Coming SoonA support program connecting women to the resources, skills, and opportunities they need to move forward with confidence, community, and a real plan.
Life Skills Coming SoonEvery woman needs people in her corner. Her Village pairs women with mentors who have walked similar roads, not to give advice from a distance but to walk alongside them.
Mentorship Coming SoonFuture Her is a mentorship program for middle and high school girls being built right here in Baltimore. Six weeks. Real skills. Real conversations. We're in the early stages, and that's exactly when we want you involved.
Every woman who has a strong circle of girlfriends had to learn how to be one first. Future Her is how we reach girls before the world tells them that female friendship is competition. We're building something for the next generation in a safe, supportive environment designed just for them.
Nothing is official yet. We're in the building stage. But if this speaks to you, whether you are a parent, a school, a community partner, or a woman who wants to pour into young girls, we want to hear from you now.
Not everyone has a travel partner. Not everyone has a circle that will get on a plane. Girlfriends Who Travel is for women who want to see the world and want to do it with good people around them.
We plan two semi-annual trips a year. No solo adventures unless you want them. Just women, new places, and the kind of memories that last.
Next Trip — Details coming soon. Sign up to be the first to know when dates and destinations are announced.
When your girlfriends are doing something, really doing it, you level up too. Girlfriends Who Trade is a GFAE extension for women who want to learn the financial markets together. Not because trading is the point. Because growing together is.

Zeroed In is a standalone budgeting brand built on one principle: zero-based budgeting. When you tell your money where to go before the month begins, everything changes. The stress fades. The confusion lifts. That feeling of always being behind starts to go away.
Income minus Every Dollar Assigned equals Zero.
That's not spending everything. That's giving every dollar a purpose, whether it's bills, savings, fun money, or investing, before the month starts.
A budget isn't a restriction. It's a decision. Zeroed In gives you the tools to make that decision with confidence every single month.
