The Modern Day Wife: Building Community Beyond Labels
from The Heart Of Show Business With Alexia Melocchi · host Alexia Melocchi
Send us Fan MailTwo entrepreneurs named Megan found each other through a charity collaboration during COVID, sparking a business partnership that would redefine women's community events across North America. The Modern Day Wife co-founders Meagan Ayers and Meghan Fialkoff reveal how their instant connection transformed into a thriving brand known for "upscale events with substance."Despite what the name might suggest, their community welcomes women from all walks of life – married, single, divorced, entrepreneurs, stay-at-home moms, and everyone in between. "There has to be something said about understanding the husband and wife title that creates something that helps society," explains Megan Ayers, who created the name as an aspiration before becoming a wife herself.Their flagship event, Soirée en Blanc, transforms the Sofitel Hotel in Los Angeles into a French-themed celebration where a thousand attendees dressed in white experience everything from intimate rooftop lunches to celebrity panels and fashion shows. The co-founders have mastered the art of creating immersive experiences that feel like "a cruise boat" with multiple levels of engagement.Beyond events spanning from California to Canada, The Modern Day Wife has expanded into digital content with a magazine (soon launching a "40 under 40" edition), podcast, and membership site offering on-demand courses. What distinguishes them from other women's communities is their holistic approach – they celebrate all the "hats" women wear rather than focusing exclusively on business or motherhood.The podcast reveals the founders' complementary personalities and shared values, particularly their commitment to humanitarian work. "My biggest upset with the world right now is celebrities not investing in humanitarian work," shares Megan Fialkov, challenging the "me, me, me" focus of social media culture.Experience The Modern Day Wife community at their upcoming events in Los Angeles, Toronto, and Scottsdale – or connect through their newly redesigned website launching this summer. Join these passionate entrepreneurs who have mastered the art of "pivoting while staying on brand" in their mission to create meaningful connections among women.Follow this Brand and get Tix for their events here:www.moderndaywife.comAbout your Host- Alexia MelocchiBuy My Book - An Insiders Secret: Mastering the Hollywood PathAlexia Melocchi - WebsiteThe Heart of Show Business - WebsiteLittle Studio Films - WebsiteShop Our Merchandise!TwitterInstagramFacebookLinkedInSupport the showThanks for listening!
