Fyli Cohort Mastermind Dinner At Kyma Hudson Yards

On Monday, January 24, Fyli hosted a closed cohort mastermind dinner gathering to welcome their fourth cohort who will be participating in the private network membership group for the next 12 months. This group of female entrepreneurs gathered at Kyma Hudson Yards to indulge in an evening of Greek cuisine by Executive Chef George Pagonis and his team in their private dinning room.

Fylí (pronounced FEE-LEE) which stands for “tribe” is a female mastermind membership community focused on educational masterclasses, accountability, peer-to-peer mentorship, leadership advancement and funding opportunities for early stage female founders. The business was started by Co-Founders Jaclynn Brennan and Yanyi Li out of a personal need to help create a network of resources, education, and 360 lifestyle support for female entrepreneurs. Fyli has successfully launched four cohorts, which are small curated groups that require an application and interview process, and have a 92 percent retention rate with annual renewal. Fyli is highly focused on supporting diverse BIPOC founders, amplifying their voices, and providing opportunities for advancement.

The group always kicks off a new cohort by breaking bread together over a delicious meal with great conversation and thought provoking questions. Cohort 4 members in attendance included: Katia Zaitsev, CBO & Co-Founder of of LEXIT, Carolyn Li, CEO & Founder of Li Organics, and Jennifer Charlot Co-Founder of RevX.

The goal is for members to start to form deep friendships, life long connections, share strategies and business insights, and hold each other accountable to their dreams and goals. Fyli has developed a curriculum and system that helps early stage female founders feel supported on their journey of growth and expansion, both personally and professionally.

Operating on a hybrid model of both in-person and digital programming, their curriculum includes 12 months of “intentional education” guiding them through important lessons and structures to get set up for success. The mastermind group benefits include: a dedicated group facilitator per cohort, monthly roundtable forums, bi-monthly accountability pairing, master class sessions with incredible experts from their vast network, mentorship matching, funding opportunities, marketing/pr opportunities, a full media content library of education, and access to exclusive events.

The mission at Fyli is to support and empower entrepreneurial minded women to invest in themselves and their passion to succeed, while arming them with the skills and resources to thrive in a male dominated world. They have coined the phrase “Together We R.I.S.E.” (renew, inspire, support, empower).
