Girlfriends Are Essential

Real friendship
changes
everything.

GFAE was born from 20+ years of real sisterhood and the belief that knowing how to be a good friend is one of the most powerful things a woman can do. For herself and for the women around her.

We've been friends for over 20 years. That's not an accident. That's a practice.

The foundation of GFAE

20+ Years of Friendship Sisterhood Community Accountability Purpose
Our Story

Built from 20+ years
of real friendship.

Most of us met when we were fourteen. Some even younger. We're turning forty this year and we're still here, still calling each other, still showing up. That's not something you plan. That's something you build over and over through every hard thing life throws at you. And it throws a lot. We know that firsthand.

GFAE exists because we looked at what we had and realized not everyone has it. So many women are going through life without a real circle. Without someone to call. Without people who actually know them. We want to change that. Community is the whole point. Everything else grows from there.

What We Do

Where community
comes to life.

Day 22 is where we live right now and it's a good home. More is coming. We're building with intention, not rushing to check boxes.

📅

Day 22

The 22nd of every month we make time for each other. No agenda, no status, just women showing up and being present. Each month we do something different, something fun, something worth looking forward to. When you're consistent about showing up for each other, something happens. You start to know each other, root for each other, become the people who are there when it actually matters. That's what we're building, a community that genuinely has each other.
