Hello Reader

Ever feel like your life is a reality show?

There are times when I do. The Amazing Race? or maybe Survivor?!

I created Athena Village because I crave connection with other amazing women and thought others might feel the same. And I wanted to connect in a place that was free from the chaotic energy and ickiness of other online spaces.

Where who we are mattered more than what we do.

Our members are from all over the world but what brings us all together is our shared desire to make a difference and have fun while doing it.

We are women with varied interests who share a passion for community and growth.

This year we changed to a PRIVATE model. To join Athena Village you simply answer a few fun questions. And if you're not a bot 🤖 you're invited in. Once inside, you choose how you want to participate.

Our culture is one of co-creation and re-invention. To anyone who knows me, you're not surprised at that! I invite you to come on in and find out what's going on!

June is all about FLOW.
