About Girl Power Hour
The Story
The "Y" in GPH
The idea of Girl Power Hour started with a conversation between two women in 2007 at an ultra boring run-of-the-mill co-ed networking event. They thought it could be done differently, better. Better lighting, better cocktails, better programming, better music. Less card pushing and 30-second commercials, more fun, more social, more glam. That's when Girl Power Hour was born; for women-only. Why? Because the dynamic that men bring to networking changes everything and there wasn't anything just for women at the time. So why not?
Nothing Lasts Forever Except Love
It was a fast and furious ride through 2013, then it was time for a break, a change, a regroup, a reboot. Times change, people change, things change, social media was even different. The one thing that hasn't changed is the love for helping women build meaningful connections by providing a dedicated time to meet face-to-face. We needed that when we started, and we need it now, more than ever.
The Time is Now
With the fast growing cities (like Seattle), lack of interpersonal relationships off-line, a tumultuous political landscape, economic inequality and other issues facing women, now is the time for us to turn towards each other as a community, as sisters, and go to work. We invite you to join us with open minds and open hearts to see what we can do together. We look forward to seeing you!
