This just in! We've launched a fabulous and feel-good closed Facebook community for women 40+, built on the belief that Girlfriend Power is everything, called The Girlfriend Social Club. Anyone who’s ever borrowed a tampon from a stranger in a women’s bathroom knows the special nature of the female support system.
This warm and welcoming community is an offshoot of our main and public Girlfriend Facebook page and our free weekly Girlfriend newsletter, a popular inbox mainstay for hundreds of thousands of women.
Join The Girlfriend Social Club to enjoy a smile, laugh, and, most importantly, connect with other like-minded women. Think of it as a 24/7 cocktail party packed with incredible, discerning and supportive women, unabashed females not afraid to share their unique triumphs and troubles.
We’re all trying our best to navigate midlife, from career stress and personal problems — to what to stream on a Saturday night. We hope that The Girlfriend Social Club, which will lean into the lighthearted, can act as something of an escape hatch from the heaviness of the world.
And we want to help you get the most out of midlife. So feel free to join The Girlfriend Social Club to share concerns, tips, questions, jokes and recommendations — virtually anything related to making the most of your 40s and 50s.
What do you get from The Girlfriend Social Club?
Connection to a community
Making friends as you age is no small feat. We’re building a network of like-minded and supportive women all trying to navigate the makeup of midlife. Here’s your chance to meet in person and make friends in your own communities nationwide.
A safe space
This closed Facebook community has rules for a reason. No politics, no overly religious posts, no medical advice, no meanness, no bullying, and no men. We know we’re not going to agree with one another on everything, but if you want to be divisive, please do it elsewhere. As a private Facebook community, members can post their own posts. On the public Girlfriend Facebook page, followers can only react to what the administrator posts.
Support
Share the very real issues you’re dealing with right now. There’s a good chance that others in the group might have faced the same dilemmas. And let’s celebrate one another’s achievements, too.
Recommendations
Anyone experiencing information overload? Let’s share our favorite TV shows, films, books, recipes, places to visit and so much more.
And don’t forget that great Girlfriend content!
We’ll post a steady stream of our favorite handpicked articles about sex, style, money, menopause, travel, caregiving, friendship and entertainment that you won’t be able to resist sharing.
And so if it’s a shoulder to cry on, a laugh over #toomuchwine or navigating the next phase of your life, The Girlfriend Social Club allows you to confab, convene, commiserate and celebrate in droves. And we’ll have your back every step of the way. After all, everybody needs a Girlfriend.
