💅 A private network for power-operator women is quietly opening a tiny January cohort. Think founders, execs, and creators focused on two things in 2026: influence (high-signal thought leadership) and income (monetizing expertise):
🇺🇸 Veteran & military spouse founders: the $10K–$25K grant window closes today. Five businesses will get no-strings cash from the Hiring Our Heroes Small Business Grant Program.
🦄 A fintech unicorn just dropped its $1B ARR playbook. The $1M angel bet, the $1.2B acquisition offer, the global-first strategy, the AI finance stack they’re building... If you’re scaling anything in 2026 this will make you rethink your entire roadmap.
💅 Lifestyle + Beauty @ The Lede Company (NYC • $95–110k) → Lead 5–8 marquee beauty/wellness accounts across launches, events, and editorial + influencer strategy.
👯 People HRIS Coordinator @ Lovesac (remote • $25–31/hr) → Keep HR data clean, onboard new hires, manage permissions, train teams, and help level-up HRIS systems. Great for detail-led HR operators.
🌟 3D Design Apprentice @ Tapestry (NYC • $26/hr) → A 12-month, hybrid apprenticeship with Coach + Kate Spade’s design teams. Deep dive into the full design process, get real mentorship, and present a final project to brand leaders.
💘 Hinge just entered its matriarch era. Jackie Jantos - the marketer behind “Designed to Be Deleted” - is now CEO, with Tamika Young stepping up as CMCO. Big year for CMOs leveling up to the big chair.
🛍️ Phoebe Gates just raised $30M for the AI shopping app she built in her Stanford dorm. Phia is now valued at $180M and backed by Hailey Bieber, Kris Jenner, Sheryl Sandberg, and Sara Blakely. One of NY’s buzziest AI consumer startups.
💸 Jane Fonda is kicking off election season herself. The icon is headlining a “Living Wage for All” fundraiser in L.A., pushing Democrats to center affordability in 2026. Her message: no democracy survives if people can’t afford to live.
