Wins & Wisdom
A monthly virtual circle for women in business. One hour, one win, one thing that's feeling hard.
Some days the work flows. Ideas land, the list gets shorter, someone says yes.
Other days you're staring at the screen wondering whether the thing you're building is worth building, with no one around to ask.
Running a business alone means both of those can happen in the same week. Usually without anyone seeing either one.
So I made a room where they get said out loud.
I created Wins & Wisdom because I needed this, too.
We meet on Zoom for an hour on the second Thursday of the month. Everyone shares one win and one thing that's feeling hard, and that's the whole format.
I'm not running this from the outside. I share alongside everyone else, because I need this kind of support as much as anyone here.
No pitching, no breakout rooms.
You can bring something unfinished and leave it that way.
Event Details
Second Thursday of the month, 12–1 PM MST
On Zoom. Free.
We meet September through June, and take July and August off.
What to Expect at Wins & Wisdom
A few breaths to settle in and let the to-do list fade
Introductions — name, where you are, what you do. I ask everyone to do this, partly so we know who's in the room and partly because most of us could use the practice saying it out loud.
One win. Anything you're celebrating. Small counts.
One hard thing. Something you're wrestling with, something you haven't said out loud yet, or something you're just curious about. Ask for input, or don't.
One word each to close
“I’m not the best at recognizing my wins, let alone saying them out loud. It felt really good!”
The whole thing runs an hour.
Most people find the win harder to say out loud than the hard thing.
Can't make it?
Stay on the list anyway.
After each session I write up what came out of it — the themes, the questions, the things that stayed with people. No names, no who-said-what. Just what the room found.
"I am LOVING that you're doing this recap now! It's so motivating and really encourages me with little nuggets each time."
— Shea, photographer
"Reading these wins are like balm to my soul right now! I can relate so much, and I appreciate you sharing them."
— Leanne, art therapist
For some people, the recap is the whole reason they're here.
That's a fine way to belong to this.
About Your Host
I'm Lexis — a designer and artist. I run Most Beautiful Design, where I help women entrepreneurs build brands that actually sound like them, andLexisworks,a creative studio for women reconnecting to their creativity.
I worked alone for about a decade before I admitted how much I missed talking to people who understood the work. Not advice. Just conversation with women who were also making it up as they went.
I'm still making it up as I go, and so is everyone else in the room. That's what makes it worth showing up for.
What you might be wondering
Who is this for? Women in business, at any stage. Especially if you're doing it mostly alone.
What if I'm new to this? You're welcome here. There's no pressure to talk, and no expectation that you arrive with something worth reporting.
Do I have to turn my camera on? No. Join however feels comfortable.
How many people usually come? Four to eight. Small enough that everyone gets real time.
Is it recorded? Yes — I record the sessions so I can write the monthly recap afterward. The recap is thematic, and nothing is ever shared with names attached.
What if I can't make every month? Come when you can. Stay on the list either way — the recap goes to everyone, and for some people that's the part that matters most.
Join the circle
You don't need to arrive polished or have it figured out.
Come for the conversation. Leave feeling more like yourself.
