The Debut Grl Pwr LA Workshop

2019, Larchmont LA, CA

Grl Pwr LA began in 2019 as an online community on Facebook, creating intimate sister circle gatherings for women in Los Angeles. These meetups, centered around personal growth and connection, sparked something truly special. The power of genuine relationships and shared support quickly grew into a movement.

How Its Going

In 2020, Grl Pwr LA became an official 501(c)(3) nonprofit, expanding our mission to offer transformative workshops, mentorship, and services that uplift underserved communities. We are committed to providing empowering, accessible experiences that help women from all walks of life grow, thrive, and reach their full potential.

At Grl Pwr LA, we believe in the strength of sisterhood—when women come together to support one another, anything is possible. Our values of inclusivity, diversity, wellness, respect, and purpose guide every event and experience we offer. Whether you're new to L.A. or joining us from another city, we provide a safe space for women to connect, grow, and feel empowered.

Together, we rise. Together, we create a world where women can achieve their dreams, knowing they have a community of strong, supportive women by their side. Because when we lift each other up, we are more powerful than we can ever imagine
