Explore how Inbal Claudio built Like-Minded Collective, a supportive Entrepreneur Community where women entrepreneurs connect, collaborate, and grow together.

We sat down with Inbal Claudio to talk about building a community. She is the creator of Like-Minded Collective, a social media platform for female founders. Inbal wanted to create a space where women entrepreneurs can connect, collaborate, and grow together, free from the overwhelming noise and competition that often dominate traditional networking environments and without the crazy sales pitches of internet marketers.

Inbal started her entrepreneurial career with a candle business. However, after struggling to find genuine, supportive communities that didn't come with a hefty price tag or hidden sales agendas, she realized there was a significant gap in the market to connect and talk. This realization led to the birth of Like-Minded Collective—a social networking platform designed exclusively for female founders at all stages of their entrepreneurial journey.

This episode hits a punch as Inbal shares the highs and lows of her entrepreneurial journey honestly, from the challenges of transitioning her business from in-person events to online and the struggle of building a tech platform with zero technical background. She candidly discusses the moment she realized that her original subscription-based model was detracting from her mission and how she made the bold decision to make her platform free for all users. This decision, driven by her unwavering commitment to making every woman feel valued and not just seen as a dollar sign, has become a cornerstone of Like-Minded Collective's success.

Inbal explains that in a world where everyone seems to be focused on scaling quickly and monetizing every interaction, she has chosen to focus on depth rather than width. For Inbal, the key to long-term success lies in the power of authentic connections—connections built on trust, mutual respect, and a shared commitment to helping one another succeed.

We also address the challenges of seeking investment as a woman entrepreneur promoting a free platform. She discusses the skepticism she has faced from potential investors who struggle to understand her monetization model and what she had to do to face these obstacles. 

But this episode is not just about business strategies—it's about the human side of entrepreneurship. Inbal's story is a testament to the power of perseverance, passion, and staying true to your values. We talk openly about the sacrifices Inbal has made, the challenges of balancing motherhood with running a business, and the moments of doubt and what to do when that happens. 

As you listen to this episode, you'll be inspired by Inbal's determination, moved by her authenticity, and equipped with practical tools to help you build a supportive network that can propel your business forward.
