Meet our founder

Meet Maggie Glenski, founder and CEO of The Foundership community in Kansas City

Hi, I’m Maggie Glenski

I’m a two-time founder, mom, writer, creator and so many other things. After spending 10+ years in global ad agencies, I started Wrinkle’s Content Studio to help female founders with content marketing.

I quickly learned how lonely entrepreneurship could be, but I believe it doesn’t have to be. That’s why I started The Foundership. This is a space where female founders can find support and friendship (something we all need, right?). A space where we build our businesses, together.

Finding your people isn’t always easy, especially when you’re stuck at awkward networking events with people who are more focused on money than genuine relationships. That’s not what you’ll find here. Every aspect of the Foundership is built with the intention of helping female founders find the support they need.

And I’d love for you to be a part of it.
