59. The Importance of Micro-Communities for Women Entrepreneurs
When you start a business, no one tells you how lonely it can feel.
You go from having coworkers, structure, and a shared sense of purpose… to working alone, second-guessing every decision, and wondering if you're the only one trying to build something meaningful without burning out.
In this vulnerable episode of Confessions of a Spiritual Entrepreneur, Samantha reflects on what it really means to find your people—and why “community” isn't just a feel-good word. It's a vital ingredient for sustainable growth as a woman entrepreneur.
She shares the story behind her own free community, Headquarters, what she's learned from joining others (the good and the bad), and why micro-communities—those small, intentional, energetically-aligned groups—can change everything.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode
The difference between big-name communities vs intimate, values-aligned ones
Why some groups drain you while others fill your cup (it’s about energy)
How to check in with the pressure and roles you’ve taken on—and why it matters
What makes a micro-community powerful (hint: it’s not numbers)
The behind-the-scenes story of how Samantha built Headquarters with intention
Her honest lessons around generosity, expectations, and redefining “success” in community-building
Key Takeaway
You don’t need more people in your corner. You need the right ones.
When you find a space where you don’t have to perform, pitch, or posture—just be yourself—you start to remember why you started your business in the first place. And that clarity? It’s everything.
