Hi Friends - a bit last minute here, but my wife & co-founder Megan is hosting a female-only workshop in NYC next week called Own Your Power. It’s already drawing some incredible women (founders and execs across industries). Check it out if interested!

📍 Live the Process Studio – 102 Franklin St, NYC
Wednesday, 6–8 PM (workshop starts at 6:30)
🎁 Includes a $250+ beauty + wellness gift bag

What to expect: an intimate workshop + group coaching with Megan, plus connection with other high-performing women in NYC.

Space is limited since it’s a ticketed event—details + tickets here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/own-your-power-ny-edition-by-ripe-hosted-by-dria-murphy-by-dria-tickets-1735761201479?aff=oddtdtcreator

Big LOVE to my WGM family who came out to our event last week. Was awesome seeing you all! Thanks again to @Brian Von Ancken for rallying such an incredible community.

Team - we're doing these Founders Hours monthly here in LA, so to spare everybody from getting monthly slacks, LMK if you're interested and I'll put you on the invite list going forward. This next one is a 40-min workshop on leadership & performance, followed by sauna & ice. Thursday, May 22nd in Venice. 🙏

@Kevin Nemandoust I have somebody amazing. She does our photography for RIPE, but most of her clients are actually CPG/food. If interested, I can connect you, or tell her you know me.

Hey Team — quick heads up before we share this more widely: We just dropped our NY Tech Week event coming up in June and it’s going to sell out. It’s a 45-min workshop on leadership & performance, followed by sauna + ice at Othership Flatiron. Would love to get more of your faces in the room and give everyone a boost to f*ck up the world (in the best way). RSVP below if you’re in — space is limited.

#events-and-visibility-opps - April 24, 2025 at 11:06 PM

@Chapin Herman great stuff! Conveniently, I live 2 blocks away, so sounds like we're neighbors. See you tomorrow!

#asks-offers-advice - April 14, 2025 at 07:10 PM

Check out my homie Will Nitze on LinkedIn — founder of IQBAR. He’s built a really strong personal brand/community on the platform simply by being himself (entertaining + educational), building (semi) in public, and sharing business insights from both his company and others. He’s definitely established himself as a thought leader within CPG — which I’m sure helps in plenty of intangible ways — though I can’t speak to how much it impacts the bottom line.

#events-and-visibility-opps - April 11, 2025 at 06:52 PM

Hey Liv - thanks so much for the offer! Funny enough, the founder of Magic Mind is actually invested in LikeMinded where we are hosting the event and they already planned to give out your product! Appreciate you!

#events-and-visibility-opps - April 11, 2025 at 04:13 PM

LA People — we’re hosting our inaugural Founder Hours on April 25th at LikeMinded, a sauna & ice community space in Venice.

It’s for builders, investors, and creators. No ask, no agenda, just great people connecting.

There's an amazing crew already lined up — space is limited, but RSVP if you want in.

Hey All - super random, but a friend pinged me asking for help in finding her nephew a sponsorship, so am leaving this here if anybody is interested. LMK and I can connect you.

He made the difficult decision to amputate his leg after his cancer came back but it has not slowed him down for a second! He is an amazing kid - resilient, passionate, driven, spunky, sweet... just think his story is one to get behind."

Np. Actually, CMO of NYSC is likely better for this. So it will be Kari Saitowitz at NYSC and Jackie Lamping at Barry's

#asks-offers-advice - March 31, 2025 at 05:31 PM

@Albe Tremblay I can send info to CMO of Barry's and President of NYSC. Shoot me blurbs for both

#asks-offers-advice - February 27, 2025 at 07:32 PM

Team - my co-founder (and wife!) is leading a female-only workshop on leadership at SXSW. It filled up quickly, but we're working on getting more seats to open it up to others. If interested, hop on the waitlist and ping me so I can move you to top of it (WGM, ftw) 🤙 https://www.linkedin.com/posts/megan-dolce-27015315_rsvp-to-own-your-power-sxsw-editi[…]m=member_desktop&rcm=ACoAAAMMBrQByPk9LXx4WtI_GBaVA3M7IKKPIUU

Hey Team -- now that I've introduced myself (literally 20 seconds ago) I have a quick ask to pls like/comment/share the following post --> all in support of those impacted by the LA fires (100% of proceeds donated to the SoCal Fire Fund). Extra love for those who buy a t-shirt 🙂

#intros - February 19, 2025 at 08:00 PM

Hey Team - first off, hats off to @Brian Von Ancken for an epic LA event. I'm new to slack here so wanted to introduce myself!

Location: Los Angeles
Current Role(s): CEO of RIPE — a human leadership performance company. We work with VCs, their portfolio companies, and brands like Nike, Poppi, CAA, Kosas, etc. through leadership programs, off-sites, and coaching. Recently launched B2C group coaching cohorts & events, with a media arm in the works! .
I also run Swerve, my fitness company.
Hobbies: Working out, dad life (what up new dads!), sauna/ice hangs, cooking, and talking anyone's ear off about health/wellness/aliens.
Topics you're interested in connecting about: Building a media company, leadership work, and product/event partnerships (think: executive coaching events paired with workouts or sauna/ice sessions) --> we've got a few in the works for LA, NYC and Austin.
How you can help WGM: I've built and scaled gyms across NYC and the Hamptons, then pivoted to a VC-backed fitness tech company. Happy to help with strategy, marketing, finance, pitching/fundraising (led company through Techstars, raised +$10M), or leadership coaching. If I can't help, my network probably can.
