Empowering Women-Owned Businesses on Seattle's Eastside

Eastside EntrepreneuHERs (aka EHERs) is an ongoing networking group for female-identifying business owners on Seattle’s Eastside, focusing on community, growth, empowerment, and inclusion. Founder Rachel Rowland knows how challenging (and sometimes isolating) running a business can be, so she has worked hard to establish a business family where members can flourish as individuals and as businesses. Don’t have time for a membership? That’s okay! Check the events calendar for one-off networking opportunities.

Our Pillars: Community, Growth, Empowerment, and Inclusion

Community: Build Relationships That Matter

Eastside EntrepreneuHERs brings together ambitious female entrepreneurs in Bellevue, Redmond, Kirkland, and beyond. Our monthly networking events for women on Seattle's Eastside foster meaningful connections in a supportive and inclusive environment. Through shared experiences and collaboration, we create a thriving network that inspires and uplifts.

Growth: Expand Your Business and Your Skills

We are dedicated to helping EntrepreneuHERs thrive. Through monthly workshops, expert panels, and hands-on sessions, you’ll gain actionable insights to advance your business. With the launch of our 2025 Content Days, you’ll also have exclusive access to creative spaces across the Greater Seattle area to craft compelling social media content alongside your peers.

Empowerment: Lead with Confidence

At EHERs, we celebrate your success and provide the encouragement you need to overcome challenges. Each meeting, workshop, and optional event is designed to empower you with the skills and mindset to lead boldly and make a lasting impact in your industry.

Inclusion: Everyone Belongs Here

Inclusion is at the heart of everything we do. Eastside EntrepreneuHERs is committed to creating spaces where female-identifying entrepreneurs of all backgrounds, industries, and stages of business feel seen, heard, and valued. We actively cultivate welcoming environments that honor diverse perspectives, lived experiences, and identities because we believe they make our businesses and communities stronger. Racism, injustice, and hatred have no seat at our table.
