Madi Lamb: Building Community through the Quarter Life Club

Madi Lamb is a Kansas City native & the founder of Quarter Life Club, a social club for helping twentysomethings “in the mood to meet people” connect in a meaningful way. At 25, Madi hit the dreaded “quarter life crisis”. She was having trouble meeting people, and she quickly discovered she wasn’t the only one. Thanks in part to the distance that stemmed from covid and remote work, many in her generation seemed to be struggling to build community.Madi decided to do something about it. Both inspired & disenchanted by dating apps, she began hosting casual meetups for others looking to connect. 500 members and 4 cities later, the Quarter Life Club has taken off and is sparking friendships, relationships, and meaningful connections all over the country — with Kansas City’s club leading the way. We’re joined by Madi’s KC Advocate, Brandon Krekel, who works at the KC Chamber of Commerce and shares how Madi’s vision and the QLC is impacting small businesses all over the region.
