AscendHer is built for the woman who has been carrying this idea — and needs the structure, the community, and the mentorship to build it into something real.

ELIGIBILITY

Who did we build this for?

→  Women at the idea, early, or growth stage of their business

→  Minimum 4 years of proven professional experience in any field — corporate, NGO, freelance, trades, caregiving, military, or informal enterprise

→  No registered company required — a validated idea is sufficient

→  English or Spanish — bilingual community, both equally welcome

→  Open to women at any stage of building, at any age

The program commitment is 3 to 12 months. Join by trimester. Continue trimester by trimester. No re-enrollment required.

TUITION

No woman turned away for price.

AscendHer uses income-based tuition. Mentees self-report their household income and select the tier that fits. Documentation is required for the income-based tiers. Those who prefer not to share documentation pay a flat rate of $650.

TIER  |  HOUSEHOLD INCOME  |  ANNUAL  |  MONTHLY (+10%)

→  Seed  ·  Under $40K  ·  $250/year  ·  ~$23/month

→  Sprout  ·  $40K–$75K  ·  $500/year  ·  ~$46/month

→  Grow  ·  $75K–$120K  ·  $750/year  ·  ~$69/month

→  Thrive  ·  $120K–$180K  ·  $1,000/year  ·  ~$92/month

→  Champion  ·  $180K+  ·  $1,500/year  ·  ~$138/month

No-documentation flat rate: $650. The monthly payment option adds 10%. Champion-tier Mentees help fund Seed-tier access. Thrive and Champion founders receive additional mentor sessions, Relivein3D discounts, and access to the partner services network.
