Concept

A platform that helps women identify their goals and provides a tactical process for achieving them.

Story

Short Summary

Merity was created and designed to help women accelerate personal and professional growth.

We believe personal development doesn’t have to be hard or expensive. Our vision is to make culturally competent, skilled coaching affordable to women for whom it was previously out of reach financially. 

We’ve built an end-to-end actionable Reflective Practice that offers powerful evidence-based exercises and coaching that will allow women to learn more about themselves and focus on what they need to do to grow and succeed.

Goals may run the gamut from acquiring leadership skills, improving work relationships, seeking personal long-term relationships, time management, getting promoted, negotiating for salary and title, engaging in a passion project, starting a business, and more.

The Impact

Particularly in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic, when they disproportionately left the workforce, more women than ever are seeking help making career and personal transitions. No comprehensive service/product exists to guide them in reimagining their goals and creating a path to achieve them.  A Merity survey revealed that 92% of women said they have life goals that are important for them to achieve, but the biggest challenges and hurdles to success were: not having enough time (46%) and not knowing what they want to do (44%).

Each Merity team member brings decades of experience and success from the fields of marketing, technology sales, fintech, banking, media, and two successful start-ups.

The Merity curriculum is based on extensive research and the science of human development. It was written by experts and authors in the field professional coaching.

New members are raving about Merity’s Reflective Practice:

  • “I really liked the content and am surprised by how much I learned about myself.”
  • “Each section is pushing for self-reflection as if to tap into what’s already within us.”
