Maggie Arai — Co-Founder

Hey, I'm Maggie! ☺️ If you're a woman running a coaching, consulting, therapy, or service-based business and you've never quite found your people in "founder" spaces... I built this community for you. Most founder communities were designed for people raising rounds and scaling to exit. The vibes in the room are just different, and you often feel overlooked, ignored, or like your business isn’t ‘enough’ of a business to count. I know because I've been exactly where you are. I'm a serial founder (4 businesses), trained lawyer, and former AI policy researcher who left it all behind to build the thing I wish existed when I was building alone. My last company (Happier) grew to 10,000+ members, 60+ sold out events, and was covered by Global News and the Toronto Star. I shut it down because the next level of success meant giving myself less of the life I wanted. Everything I learned about what makes real community work went into building Founders Who Give A F*ck. FWGAF is a membership community for women running coaching, consulting, and service-based businesses. No Slack channels you’ve got no time to check. No rooms full of people chasing funding rounds who have nothing in common with you. Real relationships with women at your level, in your kind of business, who actually get what this life looks like. For this community, "Giving A F*ck" means your business is personal. You picked this work because you care about helping people overcome hurdles. Maybe you’ve experienced those challenges yourself and want to show others the way, or maybe you’ve always felt an urge to tackle big problems at the individual level. If you're successful but stuck, profitable but isolated, and ready for your next chapter, come check us out. fwgaf.com
