An Invitation from The Grandmother Collective

We’re thrilled to share a new opportunity — and invite your help spreading the word.

How to Lead Like a Mighty Grandmother

🕓 Thursdays, 11:00 AM–12:00 PM EST

📅 October 30–December 11 (no class the week of U.S. Thanksgiving)

💻 Free six-week online course

This interactive course welcomes all women—especially grandmothers, those in grandmothering roles, and those reflecting on their leadership—to connect, learn, and explore how older women are driving social change in their communities and families. Together, we’ll reflect on what it means to lead with care, courage, and collaboration—and how to turn that reflection into action.

It’s completely free and open to anyone inspired to explore the power and purpose of grandmother leadership.
