Women-owned businesses I love and highly recommend
“We are volcanoes. When we women offer our experiences as our truth, as human truth, all the maps change. There are new mountains.”
—Ursula Le Guin
The only reason The Intuitive Writing Project ever emerged from my imagination to exist out in the world—and the reason it still exists, 12 years later—is because of a small-but-mighty army of wise, generous, loving, intuitive women who helped me make it possible, many of whom happen to own their own business! This is a short list of all the women-run businesses I love and recommend, according to category (creative, emotional, and business support) and alphabetized by first name.
