Womxn in Business

By special request, I’ve put together this list of only SOME of my favorite womxn in business who live and work here in the valley! I’ve chosen the term womxn in order to accommodate to my own, subjective lens as a queer and non-binary individual who has also been directly affected by the recent Roe vs. Wade reversal by the supreme court. These are scary times to be living— especially if you happen to be queer, to have a uterus, and to be trans.

While categorization is powerful, its specificity also leads to exclusion. I realize the term womxn has its short comings and can’t perfectly describe everyone’s situation or identification, but I hope everyone on this list understands my intention to lift up the community in Phoenix and not to harm. Mistakes happen, and this list is always being edited as I learn and grow.

That said, I hope everyone enjoys this small list of only a few of my favorite artists, business owners, and individuals who are living and working to make Phoenix a wonderful place to live.
