about
i’m nicolette, founder of womanship, a platform dedicated to creating safe spaces where women can (anonymously) share their worries, receive community support, and connect with experts who can help. we recognize that women’s shared challenges deserve a connected, holistic wellness ecosystem rooted in feminine energy and collaboration.
by embracing these values, we aim to inspire women to share their stories, validate one another’s experiences, and create a world where expressing our concerns as half the population drives meaningful progress toward equity. together, by sharing more, we can transform support into empowerment and build a world where we can all worry less.
what or who inspired you to pursue your chosen career?
i can’t believe that, given how much you women talk, you don’t talk about the really important stuff.” this remark from my partner struck a deep chord and became the catalyst for my journey to create womanship. through research, i uncovered not only the barriers women face in sharing their worries openly but also a profound truth: we’re never alone in our worries. no matter how isolating our challenges may feel, so many of us are facing the same struggles. this insight led to the concept of our connected holistic health—an approach that addresses the things we collectively worry about most, from finances to sex, motherhood to menopause, and everything in between. i realized that achieving equity requires us to share more—our fears, dreams, and struggles—and to access the support of health, wellness, and therapy professionals in ways that truly matter, helping us worry less. by supporting one another and embracing our feminine energy, we amplify our voices and create the momentum needed to achieve the equity we all deserve. together, we can share more, worry less, and thrive.
