The RAVEL Collective
Join a community where business growth and mental well-being go hand in hand.
Most communities focus on visibility, tactics, and hustle.
Ravel centers you.
Because when women feel safe, supported, and mentally well—everything changes.
We believe:
Your nervous system is a business tool
Rest is a leadership practice
Boundaries are a form of strategy
Community is a catalyst for confidence
Here, you don’t need to perform. You get to show up as you are.
We built Ravel to be a space where mental health isn’t an afterthought—it’s the foundation.
There’s a better way to show up
In a safe space
Where you can ask any question without intimidation, competition, or fear of looking dumb.
With the right people
Where you’re surrounded by smart, values-aligned women committed to your success.
in WELLNESS
Where you can be YOU without spammy sales, forced referrals, or thinly veiled self-promotion.
Women working together are a force of nature
“I always struggled with traditional networking and online communities because they’re so often transactional and sort of icky. There’s a better way to build a supportive network that benefits more than just your business. We need strong webs of women who will support and encourage one another as we build our businesses.
I created this community for all the service-based female entrepreneurs who want to stop feeling lonely and start feeling supported and limitless.”
-Cara Steinmann, Founder of Ravel Collective
Is Ravel Right For You?
Ravel isn’t for everyone. Aside from the requirements that you identify as a woman entrepreneur, here are a few ways you can tell if you’re a good fit:
You Want Freedom AND Profit
It’s a myth that more work = more $. The secret to more money AND freedom is to specialize. When you become highly reputable and referable you can charge a premium because you’re the only one who does what you do the way you do it.
You’re Full of Empathy
You’re a natural giver and want to empower others. You’re encouraging and positive, and maybe you even consider yourself an Empath or Highly Sensitive Person.
Your Values Lead You
You might share some of these values with the rest of us.
(and if you’re not sure what your core values are you’re ready to find out!)
Freedom
Connection
Authenticity
Fun
Creativity
Kindness
Integrity
Transparency
Vulnerability
Personal Growth
Empathy
You Crave REAL Connection
Are you a natural connector who collects relationships and can’t wait to share your latest amazing discovery with your network of favorite people?

Here’s the thing. We know there are seasons to your business, just like in life. Sometimes our planets aren’t in alignment, and that’s ok. Show up when you’re ready, stay while you can, and step away when you need to. We want you just as you are.
WHAT MAKES RAVEL DIFFERENT FROM OTHER NETWORKING GROUPS FOR WOMEN?
Ravel is a come as you are, people-first collection of women genuinely committed to lifting each other up. We don’t try to sell you additional services or force you to refer others in the group.
We do purposefully promote one another and are on a shared journey to grow our visibility and businesses together. Because we like each other. Not because we have to.
