Nervous about coming alone? 🤍

You're in good company. Many women come to their first SGC meet-up or event on their own. Where possible, we'll connect attendees through WhatsApp beforehand so you can say hello and know who you're meeting before you arrive.

Hi, I'm Arny,

I started Sydney Girls Connect after experiencing first-hand how difficult making genuine friendships as an adult can be. What began as a few small creative meet-ups has grown into a community of more than 15,000 women across Sydney.

I'm also a registered counsellor and certified yoga teacher, and today SGC brings together community, wellbeing and support in one place.

Need a little more support?

Sometimes community is what we need. Other times, having a private space to talk things through can help too.

Arnika offers confidential 1:1 counselling for women experiencing anxiety, overthinking, self-doubt, life changes or simply wanting to understand themselves more deeply.
