WHERE WORK CAN WORK FOR WOMEN

Is it a wild thought - the notion that you can design the way you live and work? It doesn’t have to be.

The Wilder Collective is for free-thinking female founders and freelancers doing their own thing.

Building a successful, fulfilling business amongst the demands of a life well-lived can feel daunting, lonely and really f*cking hard

But we’ve got your back.

Collectively we hold space for each other, give freely of our expertise and knowledge, share the journey, and develop genuinely helpful relationships. Everyone in the community has passed the vibe check. There’s no selling, and no £10k month chat, just real women doing real work around their real lives.

The Wilder Collective sparks conversation and connection between people who get it. 

No hustling. No grinding. Just good people. 

Sound like your people?

This no pressure network is £16 per month, and the community re-opens quarterly

Nicky Elliott knows women’s business (she literally hosts a podcast named just that). She founded The Wilder Collective to bring brilliant freelancers and founders together, with networking that works for women. With 15 years’ experience in events, Nicky is now using that expertise to create the activations that she – and women like her – actually want to go to: daytime events with no-pressure networking – no 60 second pitches, no lock outs, no games.

In 2025 there are big plans for quarterly networking events and more.

What it is and what it isn’t

The Wilder Collective is about:

  • Bringing brilliant women together into a community of people who just get it.

  • Growing your business when it's not the only thing you’ve got going on.

  • Meeting you where you are and leaning into your current season in life.

  • Sparking the conversations that lead to new connections and opportunities.

  • Permitting yourself to think differently about what your work-life can look like.

  • Finding the girlfriends who also understand what it’s like to work for yourself and are here to share the journey.

The Wilder Collective is not about:

  • Comparing your work, life or business to anyone else’s.

  • Feeling pressure to hustle, scale, or 10x anything.

  • Taking yourself too seriously.

  • Selling.

  • Structured classes and workshops you have to keep up with.

The Community Is The Thing

 FAQs

  • Think of a Facebook page, but not there. Our community lives on a purpose-built platform, created bespoke with threads designed to help you get exactly what you need from like-minded women who will meet you exactly where you are.

  • It’s a monthly membership of £16 per month.

  • Yes. You can cancel your membership at any time. Sob. Whenever you cancel you’ll have access to the community until the end of your billing period.

  • Only if asked. What does that mean? We don’t have a thread for selling yourself. We’re here to support each other, connect, and help each other out. If someone asks for a freelancer and you fit the bill then of course comment away and sell your wares, but please don’t start posts with the express intention of selling yourself or your business.
