Calling out Bullsh!t

on behalf of difficult women

A safe haven for women. All of them.

This is the place for all women to speak and be supported, validated, and respected for every aspect of who we are.

We're not going to check your ID. Our community and programs are offered to all marginalized genders including women, women-identifying, and Two-Spirit, non-binary, or gender non-conforming people who are comfortable in a space that centers the experiences of women in the working world. Welcome.

We're so happy you're here.

Improving Workplaces for People with Intersectional Identities

A safe haven for women to speak their voices.

What is the
#Teamdifficult
thing?

Team Difficult is a symbol of a community that is growing faster than we ever could have imagined.

It is a declaration of what we aren’t going to tolerate anymore.

It is a sign of welcome to anyone who is looking for a safe space to be wholly and authentically themselves.

We are lucky to be on this journey and honored to have you join us.

The Mission is simple.

Women are strong, resilient, intelligent, capable, worthy, irreplaceable and next-level amazing. We should be respected as such in every area, especially the workplace. This platform is to speak and teach our truth from our experiences in work, life and health.
