the why behind it

Melissa johanson, austin, tx

low stakes club is something i’ve wanted to create for a long time.

i’ve always loved curating experiences for people… bringing good energy together and creating something that feels easy and enjoyable to be part of. and with how busy life gets, i feel the need for something like this so much myself.

i hear it all the time from other women — we’re juggling a lot, but we still want connection… just not in a way that feels like another obligation.

i’m surrounded by some really incredible women, and i wanted to create a space where you can land, connect, and just exist without pressure. no expectations, nothing to prove — just time to be yourself and actually enjoy it.

low stakes club is my way of holding that space for you — because i see you, i value you, and i want you to have a place that gives something back.
