Women are allowed.
Allowed to exist. To take up space. To breathe, to love, to laugh, to speak, to scream, to curse and more. To lead, to think, to create. Women are notable, just as they are.
take up space
Hi, I’m Cristin, and welcome to The Notable Woman, a community for women leaders connecting to our already existing power so that we can remake the world through our creations, thoughts, leadership, and love. Sound interesting? We’d love for you to join us.

What real Notable Women
are saying about the community
The Notable Woman has given me a platform to connect with like minded people. I’ve been able to ask questions, solicit advice, connect to resources and support, share ideas, and find out about new books, films, companies, organizations, movements, and the like. Knowing that anyone who posts or responds to my posts shares the same values is everything to me– I never have to worry if I’m going to be shamed or shut down, and I always know that I’ve got thousands of amazing people to hype me when needed!
