So you’ve debated attending a Rally for the past few years, and are finally ready to pull the trigger. Or perhaps you just found out about the Rally, and are doing some thorough research before you reserve your spot (how responsible of you!). Or, you’ve already registered for your fifth Rally, and are so excited because you know how awe-inspiring and invigorating the weekend will be.
Words fall short when it comes to describing the feeling of being surrounded by thousands of women seeking to make a positive change in their lives, who are hungry for more out of their career aspirations and business dreams, and who are looking for like-minded friends to have by their side for their journey toward their own success. At the Rally, there’s a no-bullshit, all-in honesty to how we talk about the experiences we’ve been through and those that may lie ahead. And you’d be surprised at just how cathartic, reassuring, and motivating those kinds of conversations are.
This June 29 and 30, we’re hosting our fifth Rally, and our only one of 2019, at UCLA’s Royce Hall (and the surrounding campus). Whether you’re still on the fence or are looking to get hyped, here’s the spiel on why a weekend at the Rally could seriously change your life.
My Journey — Surprise, It's Cancer!
At the Rally, you’re not just meeting professionals in a similar field or industry and exchanging pleasantries and business cards. Share your latest #Moment, and you’ll find a new hype squad ready to build you up. Get vulnerable about your quarter-life (or mid-life!) crisis, and you’ll be met with stories of similar situations and understanding. So don’t be afraid to go alone—you’ll only be missing opportunities to form genuine friendships, make career connections, and yes, even meet your future co-founder. Plus, your registration includes a free, one-year membership to the munity—a new digital platform to connect on both a personal and professional level—so you’ll actually have a way to stay in touch with everyone you meet.
Our speakers and workshop leaders aren’t here to humble brag. They, too, are on a higher mission to help women overcome the challenges we all face. They’re here to share not just honest stories about their success, but the lessons they learned from their failures, so that you, too, can learn from them.
We’re not just talking big picture at the Rally. We’re going deep on actionable advice you can take back to the boardroom or the interview. Our programming covers everything from leadership skills to meditation techniques, and you’ll be able to pick and choose which topics interest you the most.
Jacqueline Husin On Linkedin: The Global Girlboss Rally
Need a new headshot to spruce up your personal website? Want to make sure your resume is copy-edited, or you’re on the right path for the career of your dreams? These kinds of professional services can add up, but we’ve got you covered. Boss Shots and complimentary glam are back, and resume reviews and one-on-one career coaching have been added to the schedule this year.
We wholeheartedly disagree with the idea that women are inherently bad with money—but when society repeatedly tells us this and refuses to give us the tools and resources we need for financial independence, it’s easy to believe that’s true. To combat that, we’ve got a whole track of programming in The Vault dedicated to personal and professional finances. We’ll cover everything from taxes for small business owners and freelancers, to navigating the world of VC funding, to smart ways to save for your future. And if you’ve got more specific questions or concerns, you can sign up for one-on-one and group Money Therapy sessions to speak directly with a financial advisor.
Whether you were never one for a 9-to-5, or are simply looking for a way to feel more fulfilled (or just make extra cash), a huge chunk of our programming is reserved for small business owners and side-hustlers. You’ll walk away with the next step you can take to grow your audience, convert your followers, hire your first employee, or start scaling your business into a billion-dollar brand.
Sophia Amoruso Is Making A Comeback With Girlboss
If you’re not quite ready to take the leap on your own venture, but are ready for something new, we’re hooking you up with opportunities at some of our favorite companies (i.e., ones that actually care about women). You’ll be able to meet with recruiters, learn about current opportunities, and ask all the questions you may have.
We’re so excited to share the amazing lineup of female-led and local small businesses in our Shopping Bazaar. From Italian-leather goods to trendy accessories as seen on the Met Gala pink carpet, to curated vintage, artisan goods and, yup, vibrators, we have a feeling you’ll be excited to support them, too.
You’ll also be proud to know a portion of all registration proceeds helps fund the Foundation, which awards grants to deserving women building companies that support other women and causes.

“I’m so excited! How many times do you think we’re going to say that today?” a woman in a pink blazer asks her friend, who has pink hair. The two are waiting for a freight elevator in downtown LA’s Hudson Loft building, which arrives with an interior painted hot pink and glowing neon. At the top, doors open to a cotton candy-colored vista and a roar of voices and music.
Reasons Why You Should Attend The Girlboss Rally
That morning, 500 women, some of whom had traveled from as far away as London and Australia, had made their way to an Instagrammable oasis of mod-shaped couches and banana leaf plants spray-painted pink for Sophia Amoruso’s Girlboss Rally, an event that promised the opportunity to “meet and network with other talented, like-minded women while developing tips and tricks from some of the best minds of our time.” Networking never sleeps, so at 8:20 a.m., women were exchanging Instagram handles over alkaline water, trading websites while in line for kale Sweetgreen salads, and primping for profile pictures in the Bumble photo booth.
“What’s Girlboss?” Sophia asked after she made her way, to much applause, to the main stage in a black jumpsuit with a plunging décolleté and pink headset. “I’m going to start by telling you what it’s not. It’s not a book, although I did write a book called
. Girlboss is a feeling, a philosophy. It’s a way for women to reframe success for ourselves, on our own terms, for the first time in history.”
The Anti Girlboss Socialist Club
Reframing success is ripe for Amoruso, who in November left online retailer Nasty Gal, which she built from scratch to the tune of $300 million in revenue in 2015 and garnered her a personal net worth of $280 million. Her departure coincided with the company filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, the culmination of now well-known turmoil. Just four days before the rally, Nasty Gal's assets were acquired by the UK retailer Boohoo.com for $20 million.
On social media, Amoruso remained candid about the company’s final months of turbulence as well as her own, the biggest headline of which was the dissolution of her marriage. That Saturday morning, however, the mood felt more like a welcome home party, with speakers extolling the virtues of failing upwards and celebrating the palpable energy that stemmed from hundreds of women in one room. The day kicked off with a keynote speech from Gabrielle Bernstein, the number one
, whose sermon segued into a daylong itinerary of impressive and proven leaders and entrepreneurs that included Moj Mahdara, Alyssa Mastromonaco, Emily Weiss, Lilly Singh, Whitney Cummings, and Sallie Krawcheck, who held forth in spaces called the “Ballerroom, ” the “Dream Den, ” and “Hustle Hall.” The day’s penultimate session saw a conversation and group selfie with Kevin Systrom, CEO and founder of Instagram.

“I’m here because I want to learn and find support. Everyone here is a hustler, ” explained a 26-year-old named Gol Ara, an Iranian-born college student from Virginia who was so inspired by Amoruso’s first book that she rendered her in a mural. Like
The book, Girlboss, the event aimed high and hinged on catchy aphorisms, many of which were writ large on the walls (“Be Unafraid, ” “Own Your Life”). If those were approachably ambiguous, the advice dispensed throughout the day was pragmatic: how to raise money, manage
