Running a business is one of the loneliest things a woman can do. Not because there aren't other women doing it. There are millions of us. It's because we're all so busy holding it together that nobody talks about what holding it together actually costs.

​

The BOSSY Community was built to change that. Twelve years ago we started meeting after work to be honest with each other about what business ownership really looked like. That honesty changed everything for us. This community exists so it can change everything for you too.

Two Ways to Be BOSSY

​

BOSSY Rochester

For women business owners in the Rochester, NY area.

The original. The local BOSSY community has been running for over 12 years. Real women, real events, real relationships built in real rooms. As a Rochester member you get everything in the national membership plus access to local in-person events as they happen throughout the year. Workshops, happy hours, pop-ups, and the kind of conversations that only happen when you're in the same room.

​

BOSSY Co. National

For women business owners everywhere

Built for the woman who doesn't live in Rochester but needs this just as much. The national community brings everything we've built over 12 years, the content, the support, the resources, the Kellys, directly to you wherever you are. And if we come to your city, we will set up an in person!

What Every Member Gets

Whether you're in Rochester or Rochester-adjacent-to-nowhere, every BOSSY member gets access to all of this:

​

The Online Community Twelve years of content, conversations, and collective wisdom in one place. Ask a question at 11pm and get an answer from someone who has been exactly where you are. This isn't a Facebook group with tumbleweeds. It's an active, engaged community of women who show up for each other, because that's what BOSSY has always been built on.

​

Monthly Virtual BOSSY Hour. A live, hosted virtual gathering every month with both Kellys and your fellow members. Part real talk, part skill building, part just being in a room with women who get it. No agenda that makes you want to fake a conflict. Just honest conversation and genuine connection.

​

Downloads & Freebies Access to our full library of digital resources, templates, guides, workbooks, and tools built specifically for women business owners. Updated regularly. Yours to use immediately.

​

The Monthly Mailer A curated monthly newsletter where members can highlight their events, share offers, and get visibility with the broader BOSSY community. This is your megaphone. Use it.

​

Seminar Hosting Got something to teach? BOSSY members have the option to host seminars to our membership. If you have expertise that would serve this community, pitch it. We love putting our members in front of each other.

​

Podcast Guest Opportunities Getting Real with BOSSY has 85+ episodes and a loyal audience of small business owners. Members have the opportunity to be considered as a guest. Share your story, your expertise, or your hard-won lessons with an audience that actually wants to hear them.

​

The Investment

$103 per year

That's less than $9 a month for a community, a resource library, a monthly meetup, a newsletter, a platform, and two business owners in your corner who have actually done the hard work. We also offer a pay-what-you-can option, because we know that the women who need this most are sometimes the ones for whom $103 feels impossible right now. If that's you, reach out. We'll figure it out. That's kind of our whole thing.

​

This Community Is For You If...

You are a woman who owns a business, brand new or ten years in, and you have ever felt:

Like nobody in your life actually understands what you're carrying. Like asking for help means admitting you can't handle it. Like you're the only one who has no idea what she's doing. Like you're doing everything right and still running on empty.

You're not alone. You just haven't found your people yet.

You just did.
