Discover your Ripple Effect inside the most connected community online

We asked Ripplers all over the world to help co-create a vision for a Ripple community online

We’re passionate about the power of CONNECTION. And we learned that YOU are passionate about it too.

Here’s what you told us…

Introducing…

The POND

A unique, ‘community-first’ initiative where community-based Rippling is our number one priority.

We aim to be the positive online space you’ve been looking for, with people who are opportunity-makers, committed to connecting with a mutuality mindset – those who expect to give as much as they expect to gain. 

More than content and resources, this is a safe and supportive place to take your connection practice to the next level by tapping into the wisdom of the Ripple Effect. 

This is YOUR community. And we are excited to see what kind of giant Ripples we’ll create when we connect.

What Members are Saying

  • This is not your typical transactional networking community. This is a place where people are first, and relationships are built on connections. From the very first time you land in The Pond and watch the “Unlock your Ripple Effect” videos, you will be too. This is a place to connect to people outside of your bubble. A place to learn, grow, and give. In today’s world of being hyper-connected in a meaningless way, this is a bright spot among all of the communities I am a member of.

    Will Simpson, Executive Coach and Author

  • I have been welcomed with open arms by everyone I have connected with. I have met many people who all share one common characteristic- eagerness to help. Through conversations with these successful individuals, I have felt nothing but supported. Not only has the pond brought mentors into my life, but it has also brought me a sense of self-confidence. Feeling accepted by those around me in such a new phase of life has been crucial to my personal and professional growth. I am so thankful for The Pond and look forward to continuing to build and nurture the relationships that come with being a part of such a great network.

    Carly Teichman, PEO Sales Representative

  • The Pond has transformed how I connect, learn, and thrive! From the moment I joined, I was immersed in a vibrant and supportive environment where members share a common desire to build meaningful connections. The networking opportunities provided are unparalleled. Attending the monthly events has been an absolute highlight of my membership. One of the most incredible aspects of this community is the constant engagement through community chats. Being part of a community where I can seek advice, share experiences, and celebrate wins has been immensely rewarding.

    Dottie Kennedy, Executive Customer Service Leader

  • I've found The POND to be an awesome opportunity to connect with individuals diverse in experiences and opinions, and also like-minded in the quest to learn, grow and contribute. It's refreshing to have a platform to share with such amazing people who are will to become vulnerable. Ripple on!
