Lis Best is a facilitator, ESG strategist, podcast host, and founder of Girls Club Collective, the feminine leadership lab for change agents. Her north star is a future that works for all of us, powered by feminine leadership.
Prior to launching her business in 2020, Lis spent over a decade working at the intersection of sustainability, communications, and government affairs with organizations like BSR and Qualcomm. Over the past 5 years, Lis has worked with hundreds of impact leaders from across the corporate responsibility landscape, including at brands like Google, Grove Collaborative, and PwC, nonprofit organizations like Mission Edge and Common Impact, academic institutions like Duke, UC Berkeley, and Presidio, and firms like Bespoke ESG, Raya Cooper Impact Consulting, and qb. consulting. She and her work have been featured by Forbes, Nasdaq, Reconsidered, the Climify podcast, Millennial Success Stories, and more.
Outside of work, she’s often reading contemporary fiction, planning her next beach adventure, or walking with her husband and her dog, Benny.
With 30 years of experience in impact between us + a lifetime of challenging the status quo, we know how it feels to care deeply about our work and our world—and how lonely it can be to hold that alone.
Meet Your Hosts

Peek into the programming 👀
We’ll create space for you to settle in, connect with gratitude to ground our work, and honor the grief you may be feeling in this moment.
We’ll draw from Deep Ecology and foresight tools, such as the 3 Horizons framework and signals, to put what we’re experiencing into context. You’ll then break into small groups for an engaging exercise on exploring where the future you envision is already emerging.
Grab a snack, make a cup of tea, and meet your body’s needs before we dive back in. 💦
With your newly gathered evidence of the emergent future, you’ll take some time to articulate your vision for both the collective and for yourself, reflecting on the change you want to see for all of us and the role you want to play moving forward. Expect a mix of guided introspection and time for sharing.
Before we send you on your way, we’ll wrap up the experience with a combination of celebration, commitment and connection to help you feel inspired and energized for 2025.
“I was awestruck with the amount of love and support I received both from Lis and the other absolutely inspiring participants. Struggling with major imposter syndrome, showing up each week willing to be seen and listen, I was met with absolute divine guidance through this feminine collective. By the end of the course, I felt more confident than I had in months to show up and share my mission. There is something so powerful about meeting in community with other badass, passionate women."
“It was an amazing experience, and I honestly still miss it. I also think that for me personally the last 5 years I have just been buried in work and haven't taken the time to think about why am I doing all this and where do I want to go and what is the image I want to portray to the world. It was a great opportunity to think abut those things, learn actionable steps to make them happen, and also connect with women in a similar space doing equally awesome work.”

Frequently asked questions
The session will be held virtually over Zoom to make participation as easy as possible.
The event will take place on Friday, January 31, 2025 from 9-12pm PST / 12-3pm EST. Please plan to join on time and stay for the duration. Latecomers will not be admitted after 9:30am PST / 12:30pm EST.
You can expect to spend up to 45 minutes on the optional pre-work we’ll share before the event, and 3 hours with us live on the day of the Summit.
The quick answer is no. We are asking everyone to arrive on time and to stick around for the whole 3 hours together to ensure you are able to participate fully and minimize disruptions for your fellow participants. If you need to leave early, that’s ok. But please plan on arriving on time, and entering and exiting the event only once.
We anticipate that the vast majority of participants in this event will identify as women; however, we welcome leaders with diverse identities who are committed to making space for underrecognized voices, want to participate in an interactive and respectful conversation, and are open to an experience that is grounded in intuition, embodiment and feminine ways of knowing.
Our vision for the future is not just planetary thriving, but the thriving of all life on earth. Feminism–which for us is intersectional and trans-inclusive–is about moving from our current patriarchal system toward a social system that values regeneration over exploitation, love over dominance, reciprocity over greed and community over individualism, and recognizes not only that gender is a spectrum, but that gender equity is a critical pillar of collective flourishing.
Absolutely! We encourage participants to tap into professional development funds at their jobs to pay for their registration fee. And if you’re an entrepreneur, don’t forget that this is 💯 a #businessexpense.
We have a template email that you can leverage if you'd like to start the conversation with your manager about whether you can put this on the corporate card. (Our hope is YES–think of this like an industry conference, only way more fun, inspiring and connection-focused!)
