Welcome to Friends A.F.

Based in Raleigh, North Carolina.

Where real connection meets your next great chapter

There comes a time in every woman’s life when she begins to crave a different kind of connection — one that feels easy, genuine, and full of joy. Beneath the many roles we’ve carried — mother, partner, professional, caretaker — we still long for laughter, inspiration, and adventure. Not as memories from the past, but as essentials for the present.

That’s what Friends A.F. is all about.

More than a group, it’s a movement of women choosing to live this next season with intention, grace, and joy. It’s for those ready to rediscover their voice, build new friendships, and create moments that truly feed the soul.

What We Offer

At Friends A.F., connection has purpose. We create spaces where women can grow, laugh, and belong.

This is more than events — it’s a community built on encouragement, growth, and curiosity about what’s still possible.
