Floorplans, Contracts, Closings - OH MY!

2 years. That’s all it took.

2 years, 71 potential spaces and 5 failed leases to be exact.

This town is a full-on bougee bitch when it comes to brick and mortars. Landlords turning the lease process into Shark Tank. “What is it you want to do again? For women? Is there really a need?” The number of hours spent mansplaining - to men - about the need for a workspace designed for women. How fluorescent lights induce migraines and walnut cabinetry is just lazy.. So many stares and furrowed brows. The only people who understood were my realtors - and coincidentally, they were women.

But amidst that drama, we finally found a starter space with beautiful bones. Abundance of natural light, high ceilings, wood beams, two balconies and - wait for it - FREE PARKING. It’s not in the trendiest location, but will be quite the destination. Walls start coming down in 3 weeks and maybe, just maybe, we’ll have a rough preview party before the year’s end.

So what is Mothership Boulder exactly?

Simply put: a space for women (specifically working mothers) to thrive.
