About Us
lead. collaborate. give-back.
We believe you deserve to be known for the work you do, the contribution you make and the expertise you have achieved, and to be surrounded by others who are just like you.
If you’re like us, you’ve been in search of your community for a long time.
You’ve likely wondered if there was a community out there to celebrate your wins and encourage you to reach the next level.
We know you want to be fulfilled in every aspect of your life, and you deserve to be aligned with women that support the same high-integrity values. At KNOW, we get it. Finding your posse of like-minded women is challenging and time-consuming.
KNOW is a high-achieving culture that elevates and connects all women and their businesses, professions, and communities, regardless of race, ethnicity, religion, color, national origin, age, disability, sexual orientation, gender expression, socioeconomic status, or physical appearance. We are united by our differences.
Over the last three years, we’ve helped thousands of dynamic women just like you quickly find their community and experience sisterhood.
As an accomplished CEO of 12 years, Sarah has built and scaled her own brands internationally. She is an award-winning entrepreneur that knows first hand what it is like to feel the need to connect with ‘her people’ and have trouble finding them.
She is on a mission to provide space for dynamic female leaders to gather, collaborate, and be celebrated for their successes and hard work.
Through the Global Membership | KNOW Book + other publications | KNOW Cares, Sarah is excited to welcome ALL women to join in the mission of: Lift & Rise
“We KNOW when we Lift one another, together we Rise”
The story behind The KNOW Women
Our mantra: Lift & Rise ~ We know when we lift one another, we rise together
As the momentum grew and we recognized the need for more, we launched our Collaborative around the women featured in our KNOW Book. Our mix & mingles soon ensued and we witnessed incredible things happening. We saw our women doing business with each other, creating friendships, supporting each other, collaborating on projects together and so much more. What started as a fun project to spotlight women, has turned into a full-blown movement. KNOW has expanded beyond its birthplace of Phoenix, Arizona and its aim is to launch in every major city across the United States and Canada.
THE KNOW GLOBAL MEMBERSHIP
But we’re not stopping there…In 2020, after recognizing the need for even more connection and through our desire to continue to provide the best opportunities for growth and exposure, KNOW launched its Global Membership. Now any woman regardless of their locale, career, or tenor, can align with the KNOW Women.
