Beloved Woman
Creating Opportunities For Women to Thrive
About us…
We believe that inside of every woman lives a Beloved Woman: strong, courageous and capable.
Our mission is to help women create a pathway to a living wage through entrepreneurship.

Many women have the dream of becoming self-sustaining. But there are often crippling forces that prevent that dream from becoming a reality.
We have found that in addition to being underpaid and overworked, women who attend the Beloved Woman program have created an underdeveloped side business to help make ends meet. Or harbor a powerful dream to develop one. We walk alongside of these women for 1 year, helping them form a business plan, build a website, have access to a female business mentor, a microloan and a community of support, encouragement and healing. We help them to build more income slowly and earn more for their time and energy: building their dream of becoming self-sustaining and along the way, creating a pathway to a living wage.
But we can’t do this alone. It takes a village to help one woman move from surviving to thriving. We need you! Take a few minutes to explore our website and discover how you can help create opportunities for women to thrive.

“Beloved Women has helped me create new ideas and broaden my insights on my business. They were more than helpful, they always look for ways to help, whether it's sending you resources or pairing you with someone that relates to your business. Beloved Women continuously encourages the ladies of the program to keep pushing even when it gets hard.”
Bree Callaway, Get Yo Lyfe Radio Show & Podcast
“Beloved Woman helped me by giving me the tools and resources to build my brand and make it better. I chose Beloved Woman because, unlike other groups, I received personal care and attention given that it was only a few members and it was based out of a church. I knew by that it wasn't a gimmick or something that would waste my time. They wanted to help me fulfill my purpose.”
Michelle Zensen, Right on Time Dog Training
“Beloved Woman has helped me in so many ways. The collaboration of the women in the group has been so beneficial. When we all come together and brainstorm our ideas and support each other’s businesses, I feel empowered and energized, ready to get back out there and keep growing my business! I chose Beloved Woman over other programs because it has an open, warm and inviting feel to it. No pressure, just love and encouragement. I’m so grateful for the support I’ve been given”
