Connection
With a Purpose.
“Life is too short to be anyone other than who you are. It should be well-balanced, well-attended, and well-lived.”
Pavé is a French term for a diamond setting — a technique in which gemstones are set so closely together that no metal is visible between them. They cannot be pulled apart. That is the founding philosophy of the Pavé Group: a “soulsisterhood” of professional women built on genuine, unbreakable relationships. Founded in 2011 in Orange County, California, what began as a local gathering of like-minded women has evolved into an international movement touching lives across continents.
The Pavé Identity
The Pavé Group is defined by four non-negotiable values, each letter of the name carrying its own covenant with the community:
Service to others is not optional — it is woven into the DNA of every gathering, every chapter, every initiative.
No performance, no pretense. Our community is a space where professional women show up as their truest selves.
A zest for life that is contagious. We pursue our passions boldly and celebrate one another unapologetically.
Lifting each other up through mentorship, access, and the radical belief that there is more than enough room at the top for all of us.
The Subgroups
Paving The Way
The mission-driven philanthropic subgroup. Local volunteerism, professional mentorship programs, and community-driven initiatives that create real, lasting change at the grassroots level.
Pavé Local Chapters
Private, curated local groups across the globe - from frequent culinary adventures, to arts and cultural gatherings, to group volunteer opportunities, to traveling to see Iceland's northern lights or the savannahs of Africa - we are exploring the world together, intimately and authentically.
