Kiley founded The 100 Collective with the goal of bringing together women small business owners and empowering them to help one another thrive. Women small business owners face different challenges and barriers, so having a supportive community to fall back on is pivotal for success. Kiley believes that when women have more money, they make better decisions not only for themselves and their families, but also for the world at large.

"We're asking that every member who joins pledges to help 100 other women build a more financially free and fulfilling life," shares Kiley Peters, founder of RAYNE IX and The 100 Collective. Kiley is a serial entrepreneur whose passion lies in helping other women business owners succeed. She started The 100 Collective as a way to amplify women small business owners, provide small business coaching, and create a supportive and drama-free community. Kiley and Dax discuss Kiley's professional journey, the mindset shift required for women small business owners to come together, and the research Kiley completed through the help of Susan Byer and her team at Audience Audit. At its base level, The 100 Collective's directory helps women business owners hire and be hired, while the workshops, peer mentorships, and supportive environment help members empower one another.

Podcast Quotes:

"We are giving away free directory listings, because we felt it important to make sure that it was accessible to everyone, no matter how small they are." (8:01-8:11 | Kiley)
"We are looking for anyone who identifies as a woman who also identifies as a small business. And we identify that as someone who makes up to 5 million in annual revenue, provides a professional service, and commits to our pledge and our code of conduct." (8:12-8:29 | Kiley)
"We're asking that every member who joins pledges to help 100 other women build a more financially free and fulfilling life." (8:55-9:02 | Kiley)
"When women have more money in their pockets, they make better decisions for themselves and their families and the world at large." (9:16-9:22 | Kiley)
"Let's put it out there that we can all win at the same time. We can't, because there's been these notions previously that there's a table and that there's maybe one or two seats for a woman to be present at. That's not true anymore. It's just not, especially not in the world of entrepreneurship, right? We now have the opportunity to create our own tables and we can create whatever kind of tables we want. They can be folding tables, they can be expandable tables. You can bring up folding chairs, you can dance on the tables, you can do whatever you want. So let's embrace this. And it's just so unnecessary to be spending energy on anything that has a negative connotation to it." (11:03-11:53 | Kiley)
