Member Testimonials

  • Stacey Levine, Brand Marketing Consultant

    "Beauty Industry Work Friends is one of the most collaborative, supportive communities I’ve been a part of. It’s a tight-knit, highly vetted group of industry pros who genuinely support each other – whether it’s sharing insights, making connections, or just offering a fresh perspective. I love that it’s a space where people actually get the nuances of working in beauty, and where conversations feel meaningful, not just transactional!"

  • Chloe Ford, Branding, Packaging, & Shopify Designer

    “Work Friends is a no-brainer if you’re a freelancer in the beauty industry. It’s such an inspiring group of people to be connected with - to be able to share insights, recommendations, jobs and advice with them is worth its weight in gold. Taylor is incredibly generous with her knowledge and recommendations, creating a space that feels welcoming and supportive. It’s a corner of the internet where you instantly feel at home - small enough to feel seen, but large enough to be full of value and potential collaborations.”

  • Jessica Eggert, Brand Consultant

    "There are so many amazing things about freelance and solopreneur life, but I do miss the community aspect of having a team. Work Friends fills that void and then some — it's like having all of your favorite, smartest and most ambitious coworkers from each company in one community. It feels much more curated and supportive than most other closed communities, and I've checked out quite a few."
