A network for female enterpreneurs at the Goldküste
WomenDorf
WomenDorf is more than a network. It is a space where women can come home to themselves, not through performance, comparison or perfection, but through real connection, honesty, learning side-by-side and sisterhood.
I deeply believe that every woman needs a “WomenDorf” at some point in her life. A place where she is not only seen for what she does, but for who she truly is. A place where conversations go beyond small talk, where vulnerability is welcomed, and where growth happens naturally through presence, reflection and shared experience.
We often hear that we need a village to raise a child, that we need to “put ourselves out there” to grow, or that we simply need to love ourselves more.
And while all of this may be true, what is often missing is the experience of women truly coming together in solidarity and abundance. Not side-by-side in competition. Not trying to prove enoughness. But together, in support, depth and authenticity.
WomenDorf was created with exactly this intention 3years ago by Ritu Riedweg and called Womännedorf inspired by the place Männedorf and Pia and the team continue this mission:
To bring women together in a meaningful way and to create spaces where healing, inspiration, courage and belonging can emerge naturally. Because sometimes transformation does not happen through doing more. Experience feeling safe enough to fully be ourselves, in power and connection.
«Every woman who wants to step up as a leader and be both soft and strong needs a village of sisters.»
Pia Eggimann, Community Leader of WomenDorf
