ABOUT
SHEWOLF

OUR MISSION:

Building rebellious, inclusive community through connection, movement, and action.

We're creating the village so many of us are missing—where you can show up exactly as you are. SheWolf is for women+, non-binary folks, and allies who want to connect deeply, live boldly, and give back locally.

Founded in North Carolina's Triad, we believe friendship can be revolutionary—and showing up for each other is how we change the world.

THIS IS WHAT
IT MEANS
TO BE A SHEWOLF

Being a SheWolf means you're not doing this alone anymore. You're in a community of brave, messy, growth-minded people who care about wellness, activism, real talk, and doing life together.

You Speak Up, Even When It’s Hard

Use your voice—whether it's quiet courage at the kitchen table or rallying in the streets. Show up in spaces that weren't built for you and take up space anyway.

You Heal—and You Don’t Do It Alone

You're breaking patterns and rewriting stories. Whether it's learning to rest or try again, you know healing is generational and you're doing it in community.

 You Live with Bold Intention

You ask hard questions, try new things, and choose aligned action over autopilot. From movement to motherhood to marches, you lead with curiosity, courage, and care.

You Show Up for More Than Just You

Being a SheWolf means being part of something bigger. You check on your people, share resources, and hold space. You don't just care—you act.

Core Values

The principles that guide everything we do.

Connection over competition

We believe women+ are stronger together. This is a space for real talk, shared wins, and showing up for each other—without gatekeeping or comparison. Just honest support and genuine community.

Intersectional justice

We envision a world where all women+—including Black, Brown, trans, disabled, queer, immigrant, and low-income folks—can live freely and safely. Our community is actively learning, unlearning, and committed to building something better for all of us.

Rest & resilience

We reject burnout culture. We protect our peace, honor our energy, and model sustainability. Rest isn’t laziness—it’s how we stay grounded and strong for the long haul.

RADICAL JOY

Joy is fuel for the fight. Laughter, movement, creativity, dancing around a fire—we believe in the power of shared joy to sustain us and connect us to what's possible.

Courageous action

We believe in doing the hard thing—whether it’s setting a boundary, standing up for what’s right, or starting a conversation that matters. We act with integrity, even when it’s uncomfortable. Small acts of courage build a braver world.

Take What You Need, Give What You Can

There’s no perfect way to show up here. Some seasons you lead, some you receive. All are valid. This is a place where you can be messy, magnificent, and in motion—all at once.

EVERY EVENT WE HOST
WE ENCOURAGE ACTION

Every SheWolf event is rooted in action. Whether we're hiking, dancing, marching, or retreating—there's always a deeper purpose.

Every paid SheWolf event gives 15% of profits directly to a designated nonprofit. We give back because that's how we make change—by showing up, investing in what matters, and using our joy as fuel for impact.

Members vote on causes they care about. We collect goods and supplies, advertise charity donation pages, and create space for direct support at events and meetups.

THIS MONTHS
FEATURED NONPROFIT

We're proud to feature Guilford Green Foundation, advancing equality and inclusion through philanthropy, programming, and advocacy that uplifts the LGBTQ community.

15% of profits from all paid SheWolf events this month support their work so you can back them directly.

MEET THE FOUNDER
JORDAN LACENSKI

Brand strategist, MBA, mom of two, and Co-Founder and Owner of SheWolf.

When SheWolf started in 2016, we were craving connection, honesty, and spaces where women could show up fully as themselves. Back then, I was building a brand consultancy around the clock, speaking at conferences, and launching platforms for women entrepreneurs. Work was my baby.

Then came 2020 and actual babies. I wasn't a mother yet when we launched SheWolf, but now I'm deep in it—two kids, new priorities. I no longer measure my worth by my inbox or productivity. I'm not chasing hustle. I'm protecting my peace.

What's stayed the same? My belief in women+. My belief in the power of community. And my belief that gathering—on trails, over wine, in protest, around fires—is a radical act of hope.

I created SheWolf to be that gathering place. We are not a networking group built on burnout. We are a rebellious, inclusive community driven by connection, movement, and action. We show up. We speak out. We take care of each other.

What I value:

  • Connection over competition

  • Showing up imperfectly but honestly

  • Joy, movement, and mutual care

  • Raising good humans while protecting our own inner child

  • The radical idea that women deserve rest, ownership, and each other

I'm so glad you're here. This pack was never meant to be a solo mission. Whether you're brand new or have been running beside me for years—thank you. Let's keep building.
