What if joining an online networking community felt more like meeting your business bestie for a cup of coffee than a business transaction?

Let's be real…
Many communities suffer from an overflow of members who contribute little to the conversation, treating it like a platform to drop their website URLs on a hiring thread and bounce.
That's not the case inside The Exchange.
Here, we’re all about CONNECTIONS, recognizing that navigating business can be a lonely journey, and having friends who get it is priceless.
This space is designed to be different.
Hey, I’m Stacy!
I've witnessed the pitfalls of online communities firsthand—members joining with the expectation of finding value, only to remain disengaged and unfulfilled. It's disheartening, and having managed such communities in the past, I understand the frustration.
Now, as the founder of The Exchange, I'm determined to break this cycle.
My goal is to personally know each member, understand their needs, and ensure they connect with the community authentically.
My approach is not about being your coach but creating an environment where genuine connections exist and happen regularly.
I want The Exchange to become the space you look forward to checking in with on a consistent basis.
As a fellow business owner, I get it. The struggles are REAL.
As a fellow business owner, I get it. The struggles are REAL.
You want to be in a supportive community with others who:
Get it. I mean, corporate friends are GREAT, but they don’t know the feeling of losing a client or having rollercoaster income.
Aren’t just sliding into your DMs to get something.
Can share their experiences and answer your questions as they arise, like “how do I tell this client I’m raising my rates?”
Are also looking for their business besties to meet IRL.
You can VENT to without judgment or blank stares—it’s the reason we’ll have monthly meet-ups to b*tch it out and release the negative energy because keeping it in is SO toxic.
Prefer not to live and breathe social media, yet are still eager to expand connections and gain insights without the pressure of maintaining a flawless online presence.
Our online community is not just another ‘online space’—it’s a curated experience designed for talented freelancers, business owners, and entrepreneurs looking for connection.
Our online community is not just another ‘online space’—it’s a curated experience designed for talented freelancers, business owners, and entrepreneurs looking for connection.
You don’t want another community where you’re drowning in tens of thousands of people because more is not always better.
You want to build REAL connections.
This is exactly why we’re “exclusive” with an application + coffee chat required to join. It’s NOT a “you can’t sit with us” vibe—because everyone is welcome.
We simply want to make sure EVERYONE in here genuinely wants to be here and participate, so our community thrives on meaningful conversations and connections.
We understand the power of intentional connections, and we’re here to help you make them.

This space is here to help you redefine networking struggles by making connections as smooth as a well-brewed cup. We know talking to ‘strangers’ on the internet feels awkward and intimidating, especially if you’re an introvert. That’s why we provide structured spaces, speed networking, vent sessions, and co-working spaces so you can really get to know the other members.
I mean, how can you not relate to someone who’s venting about a client asking for an IMMEDIATE deadline? We’ve all been there, done that. And if you haven’t (yet), someone in our community can share their own experiences, so you feel well-prepared for any business curveballs.
You’ll also realize no matter what situation you’re in, it’s never just you. “I can’t believe it” moments happen to all of us, and this is the space to talk about it.
The goal is that the loneliness often associated with being a freelancer will be replaced by real support from others who are going through the same things because we all are—most are just scared to talk about it!
