Our HERstory......

It started with a question: What was I missing?

As working professionals, we often hear stories about what happens on a golf course.

Relationships are built. Business is discussed. Deals are made. Introductions happen. Networks expand. People connect in ways that don't always happen inside a conference room.

As a woman, I wanted to understand what was really happening on the green.

So I asked a friend for a 20-minute golf lesson. I posted pictures from that experience on social media. Soon after, I received an invitation to attend a golf outing representing the organization I worked for.

I almost backed out.

I was nervous. I didn't know enough about golf. I didn't know the rules, the etiquette or what I was supposed to do.

But I went. And what I saw changed everything.

There were more than 200 people at the event, including corporate executives and business leaders. What surprised me most wasn't simply that they were playing golf. It was the conversations happening around the game.

Relationships were being strengthened. Business was being discussed. Opportunities were being shared. And then I looked around the room. There were very few people who looked like me, and I was the only Black woman there.

That's when it clicked.

People were missing opportunities. Women were missing opportunities. Businesses were missing opportunities.

And I wanted to do something about it.

That's how Hit Like A Girl was born.

I wanted to create a space where Black women and women could learn golf without feeling intimidated or judged. But I also wanted to create something bigger than golf instruction.

I wanted to create a bridge.

A bridge between people and opportunities.
A bridge between beginners and experienced golfers.
A bridge between community and connection.
A bridge between the people who have traditionally had access to golf and those who have been left out.

What started as an effort to introduce women to the game has grown into a community where people can learn, connect, build relationships and discover what golf can make possible. And we're still building.
