Welcome to The Pink Fig
This is for women who want real conversations (and really good snacks). Who take their growth seriously but refuse to live a joyless life. Who light up when talking about things they care about and believe other women's success makes the world better, not scarier. If you've been looking for your people—the ones who actually call you back, who remember what matters to you and, who celebrate your wins—you just found them. You're welcome here, exactly as you are.
More Than Events.
A Movement.
The Pink Fig offers multiple ways to connect, grow, and celebrate
Because your life isn't one-dimensional, so why should your community be?
Monthly Signature Events
The Heartbeat of Our Community
Large gatherings bringing together incredible women who made the conscious choice to show up for themselves and for connection.
Every event includes:
-
Beautiful atmosphere ( thoughtful details, that create a sense of occasion)
-
Delicious food (because food is love and we take both seriously)
-
Meaningful content (speakers, discussions, activities that make you think)
-
Genuine celebration (laughter, joy, moments where your face hurts from smiling)
-
Real connection (structured activities so you actually meet people, not just awkward mingling)
Themes are tied to life's rhythm: • Seasonal transitions • Career development •Financial empowerment • Body celebration • Gratitude and reflection

Why The Pink Fig Is Different
Holistic Approach
We touch all areas of life—career, relationships, health, wealth, wellbeing, joy. Because your life isn't compartmentalised, so why should your community be?
Accessible Entry
Start with one event. See if it's for you. Then maybe another. Then maybe join a club. We're a gentle on-ramp, not a high barrier. You don't have to commit before you've experienced it.
Meaningful + Joyful
We refuse to choose between substance and celebration. You can have serious conversations and laugh until you cry about something ridiculous. Both matter. Always both.
York Love
We're creating something genuinely local. We love these streets, these seasons and this community.
Beautiful & Genuine
Everything is thoughtfully planned to create an atmosphere that feels special. But it's not just about aesthetics. It's authentic beauty in service of real connection.
Multiple Ways to Engage
Big events when when you need energy and expansion. Intimate clubs when you want to go deeper. Retreats when you need serious rest and renewal. Options for different needs, moods, and budgets.
Is
The Pink Fig For You?
If you recognise yourself in any of these, then yes. Absolutely yes.
You're The Kind of Woman Who:
Values authentic conversation over comfortable small talk
Approaches personal growth as an ongoing practice rather than a destination
Finds genuine pleasure in other women's success and expansion
Appreciates when care is taken with details and atmosphere
Seeks friendships with substance—the kind that hold you through difficult seasons
Understands that joy and depth aren't opposing forces
Is willing to be seen, even when it feels vulnerable
Shows up not because you have it all figured out, but because you believe in the power of showing up
You're Looking For:
Real friends
Not networking contacts or social media connections. Real relationships with women who remember what you told them last month.
A place to belong
Where you don't have to explain yourself or prove yourself or be anyone other than who you are.
Inspiration and growth
You want to keep becoming. Keep learning. Keep evolving. You're not done yet.
Joy and celebration
Life is hard enough without us making it harder. You want to ENJOY yourself without feeling guilty about it.
Time for yourself that doesn't feel selfish
Permission to invest in yourself and your friendships without feeling guilty about it.
Authentic community
A place that reflects who you actually are rather than who you think you should be.
Our community includes women from 25-50, though all ages are welcome. We're based in York but serve the surrounding areas as well.
Meet Caroline: Your Enthusiastic Guide to Connection
Hi! I'm Caroline, and I created The Pink Fig because I believe—deeply, truly believe—that female friendship is essential, joy is non-negotiable, and every woman deserves a community that sees her, celebrates her, and reminds her she's brilliant.
Having lived in Brazil, South Africa, and now the UK, I know how isolating it can be to start over again and again. Each move meant rebuilding community from scratch and each time I found myself wishing for a space that made that process easier.
The Pink Fig is my response to that longing. It is the community I wish I had every time I began again. A reminder that women do not have to navigate change, growth, or reinvention alone.
The Pink Fig is my love letter to female friendship. It's my belief that community is not only possible—it's essential. It's my commitment to creating spaces where women can breathe. Laugh. Cry. Grow. Celebrate. Belong.
While I take connection and growth seriously, I refuse to take myself too seriously. Every Pink Fig event balances meaningful content with genuine celebration, empowerment with joy, depth with fun.
My Promise to You: You'll leave our events feeling more connected (to yourself and others), more inspired (with something to think about or try), and more alive (lighter, energised, joyful).

What We Stand For
These aren't just words on a website. They're the non-negotiable foundation of everything we create.
FUN
We choose joy. We choose energy. We choose fully showing up. Full engagement rather than distracted participation. Being here, now, with genuine attention to the moment and to each other.
WORTH
Every woman deserves connection and celebration without needing to earn it through achievement or transformation. You're enough right now. That's not conditional.
BELONG
This is a place where you can exhale. Let your shoulders drop. Stop performing. Where being yourself—completely, honestly—is not just allowed but welcomed.
INTENTIONAL
Beauty, depth, and meaning in everything we do. We're creating experiences that matter. Details that resonate. Moments that you'll remember.
SISTERHOOD
We lift each other. We hold each other. We celebrate each other's growth as our own expansion.
