Sisters in the Triangle

Building Community, Creating Connections, and Uplifting Women in the Triangle.

About Sisters in the Triangle

Sisters in the Triangle was founded in October 2024 by Essynce Henderson with the mission of empowering women in the Raleigh-Durham area through memorable events and experiences. After facing the challenges of moving to a new city—feeling homesick, lonely, and disconnected—Essynce saw the need for a space where women could come together to form meaningful connections, discover local opportunities, and build a true sense of belonging.

Sisters in the Triangle is not just a community—it’s a platform that brings women together through curated events designed to inspire, connect, and empower. By hosting workshops, networking opportunities, and collaborations with local businesses, we create experiences where women feel seen, valued, and supported in their journeys.

From social gatherings to skill-building workshops, every event is crafted to foster authentic connections and shared growth, making Sisters in the Triangle a cornerstone for women seeking to thrive together in a vibrant and inclusive environment.

The Story Behind the Group

Hey girl, I’m Essynce—or Essy! I’m originally from Hagerstown, Maryland, and I moved to Raleigh in May of 2024. Like many people starting fresh in a new city, I spent a lot of time feeling isolated and homesick, missing the connections I had back home. As I went through this, I realized there was a real need for minority women to come together, support each other, and create a space where we could feel truly seen and connected. That’s when Sisters in the Triangle was born—an inclusive community where women can build real friendships, share experiences, and discover everything this amazing city has to offer.
