I was introduced to Femme Foundry by a trusted friend at a pivotal time in my business journey. As I prepared to sell my company, I needed a strategic partner who could help me create a smart exit plan and ensure I was making the right decisions for my future. From my first meeting with Stephanie, I was impressed by her knowledge, creativity, and ability to tailor strategies to my specific goals. She brought fresh ideas and valuable insight that made the entire process feel more manageable and gave me confidence in every step. I only wish I had found Femme Foundry earlier in my business journey, as Stephanie's strategic approach would have been invaluable from the beginning. Still, I found her exactly when I needed her most, and together we created a clear path to the next chapter of my life and career. Thank you, Stephanie, for being both a trusted advisor and a true partner during this transition. I highly recommend Femme Foundry to any business owner. They are strategic, results-driven, and an incredible asset at any stage of your business.

A Note from Stephanie Byford

I built Femme Foundry because I know what it's like to build a career and a business without a roadmap or the right people in your corner. Throughout my career, I learned that sustainable growth is built through thoughtful strategy, operational discipline, meaningful relationships, and having someone who will challenge your thinking. Femme Foundry exists to provide women founders with the trusted strategic partnership I wish more of us had from the beginning. My goal is to help women build businesses that are not only successful today but resilient enough to thrive for years to come. Beyond the advisory work, I believe in creating a community where accomplished women openly share knowledge, open doors for one another, and celebrate each other's success. If I can help one more founder build with greater clarity, confidence, and intention, then I know I'm building exactly what I was meant to create.
