Summary: If there’s one word that characterises the feeling since the 2016 presidential election, particularly amongst women, it’s anxiety, and with that has come a long overdue cultural conversation about wellness and self-care. It sparked Alisha Ramos to take, Girls' Night In, which was then a self-funded side project, and turn it into a fully-fledged business. One that’s building a community among women who want to take care of themselves and each other while having a good time and cultivating meaningful relationships. To do so, she walked away from an impressive job in tech, after working her way up to become Vox Media’s product design director. Alisha talks candidly about the fact that, as an entrepreneur, you never quite know whether you’ve made the right decision in leaving the comfortability of a stable career but also the reassurance that comes with seeing her community grow week on week. We talk about how she’s diversifying her revenue streams, evolving from content to events, a membership program and now physical products and what that means for her team and the way she allocates her time. With so much growth in just one year of business, she also sheds light on trying to find a healthy middle ground between ambition and grace.
