Lean In Circle

She Runs Projects

  • San Diego, California

Our mission

She Runs Projects exists to equip women — and especially women of color — with the tools, systems, and community they need to not just enter the construction and trades industry, but to lead it with confidence, credibility, and authority. We believe the rooms where projects are planned, decisions are made, and careers are built should reflect the full diversity of the people who show up and do the work. We're here to make that happen — one PM at a time.

About our Circle

  • Meets twice monthly
  • Looking for members

She Runs Projects is a Lean In Circle for women in construction and the trades who are ready to lead with confidence, build real skills, and stop going it alone. This industry is tough. The rooms can be unwelcoming. The learning curve is steep — and most of us had to figure it out without a roadmap or a mentor who looked like us. That changes here. We're a community of women who lead projects, navigate job sites, manage teams, and show up every day in spaces that weren't designed for us — and we do it together. What we bring to the table: ✦ Systems and strategies that actually work in the field ✦ Honest conversations about the real challenges women face in this industry ✦ Peer support from women who understand your world ✦ A circle where your growth, your career, and your voice matter Real systems. Real confidence. Real results. Based in San Diego. Open to women who are ready to show up, speak up, and level up.

How it works

Circles are small groups of women who come together—online or offline—for real talk and peer support.

Why join a Circle?

We all need a safe space for real talk, inspiration, and support. Right now, we need community more than ever.
