FBN Select: Where Expertise Meets Influence - Quietly, Intentionally

Strategic proximity. Professional trust. Meaningful growth.

If traditional networking leaves you feeling drained or unseen, you’re not alone.

FBN Select is a professionally exclusive, mastermind-style network for ambitious women who understand that the right room changes everything.


If traditional networking feels transactional, noisy, or misaligned with how you lead — this was built for you.


Here, growth isn’t forced.
Influence isn’t performative.
And reputation is built through consistency, contribution, and proximity to other experts.

Because every seat is held by a recognised expert, opportunities don’t need forcing - they emerge as a byproduct of proximity.

This Is Not Networking As You Know It:

FBN Select exists for women who are already credible in what they do.

And are intentional about where they invest their time, energy, and reputation. 

You won’t find:

  • Speed networking or surface-level conversations 
  • Referral pressure or performative pitching 
  • Competing voices fighting for attention

Instead, you’ll find a curated room where:

  • Every seat is held by a recognised expert 
  • Conversations go deeper than tactics 
  • Opportunities emerge naturally because of trust and alignment

This is a space for women who lead with quiet confidence - and understand the long-term value of being known, respected, and well-connected.

Select Member Feedback

I've loved being part of FBN Select... it's personal, it's real, it's empowering. I liken it to a board meeting. We support, hold each to account and share ideas. What's not to love!" 

- Samantha Corbett (EweMove Estate Agent) 

Is FBN Select Right for You?

FBN Select may be the right fit if you:

  • Are established or intentionally building toward authority in your field

  • Want access to strategic insight, not just encouragement 
  • Understand that influence is built through contribution and consistency 
  • Are comfortable being seen as the expert in the room
     

This is not about being the loudest voice.
It’s about being the most trusted one.

1. Professional Exclusivity in each group

   Each group accepts one member per industry.

That means no internal competition -only clarity, trust, and positioning.
You become the recognised authority in your field within your group, strengthening your reputation and increasing your professional leverage over time.

When expertise is clear, collaboration becomes effortless.

2. A Curated, Introvert-Considered Room

 Groups are intentionally small (maximum 15 members), allowing space for meaningful dialogue, conversation, reflection, and contribution.

This isn’t about visibility for visibility’s sake. It’s about being known for what you do well, in a room that respects depth and thoughtfulness.

Every voice matters.
Every presence is intentional.
