Fylí (pronounced FEE-LEE) which stands for “tribe” is a female mastermind membership community focused on educational masterclasses, accountability, peer-to-peer mentorship, leadership advancement and funding opportunities for early stage female founders. This business was started by Co-Founders Jaclynn Brennan & Yanyi Li out of a personal need to help create a network of resources, education, and 360 lifestyle support for female entrepreneurs. Jaclynn & Yanyi, both serial entrepreneurs and content creators’ turned their passion project into a very full-time business. Fylí is a net-effect ecosystem and brand to empower female entrepreneurs from a holistic perspective. We are a global community of 8k — 80% founders and 20% corporate executives. The founding Fylí team is highly diverse: LatinX, Chinese, and Black leaders with unique perspectives.
Our mission at Fyli is to support and empower entrepreneurial minded women to invest in themselves and their passion to succeed, while arming them with the skills and resources to thrive in a male dominated world. We are committed to our tribe and their success both personally and professionally.
We started FYLI because we realized women did not have the confidence, network, or start-up resources needed to properly raise funding and build businesses. High achievers need to be around like minded individuals to encourage them to keep reaching outside of their comfort zones. We strive to constantly be learning, meeting new mentors, and challenging ourselves.
Ever wonder why men join fraternities, private members clubs, and make million dollar deals on the golf course? They are not afraid to self-promote and ask for what they want.
They lean on their “brothers” and are part of a larger “boys club” that supports each other’s businesses by sharing strategies and learnings to help each other succeed. Female CEO’s get 2.7% of all Venture Capital, which led us to create our own universe for support and funding.
Move over boys club *enter FYLI* named after the Greek word for “tribe”. Fylí provides members the tools to optimize their growth through accountability, empowerment, storytelling and authenticity. We are a leadership group coupled with action.
You are either running your own business, working for a major corporation climbing the ladder, getting ready to start your own company OR were just acquired and now are deciding what’s next. Who helps you gear up for launch? Who is your second set of eyes reviewing your 18 month strategy plan? Who is introducing you to VC’s and potential investors? Who is helping you build
Are you always the “leader”? Who is inspiring you? Fyli mastermind has an application and vetting process as a way to ensure quality – each member brings a certain level of knowledge and expertise to the table. This community will not only be there to support you professionally in your career, but also personally. You will have a community that supports you, offers advice and new perspectives, and feels like family.
You are forced to think bigger and take ACTION on your ideas. Once you speak them out loud, every member within the group holds you responsible for bringing them to life, and supports you along the way. Mastermind members want to see each other succeed and achieve their unique goals and values.
You will never feel like a solo founder, even if you are one. A mastermind group helps you form a new level of confidence because you now have the structure and network of resources needed to get to your next level of “success”- however you define it. Each member acts like an “advisor” to each other – you will have a team surrounding you anytime you need to make a tough decision or feel unsure of yourself.
Joining a mastermind means you will constantly be learning and growing at all times. From problem solving to strategy sessions to workshops with some of the best experts and leaders in the world, you are getting a PhD in life. Each member brings a new set of skills and experience to the table, sharing tactics that are extremely valuable.
Mastermind groups work together to help each other grow and scale. From collaborations to partnerships and new business ventures, each member brings a network to the table which in turn expands the awareness of your brand and leads to new opportunities. Your network is your net-worth and the networking potential of this group of high performers together in one room makes us UNSTOPPABLE!
