This week: Monique Chavez — HER Music Club
A conversation about creating community, empowering women in music, and why building spaces for support matters more than chasing recognition.
Monique Chavez is the founder of HER Music Club, a Los Angeles–based community and event series. What started as live shows featuring emerging women artists, DJs, and panels with industry executives has grown into a platform where women can feel seen, supported, and empowered to thrive.
In this episode, Monique reflects on the power of connection over clout, fostering environments where creativity and collaboration flourish, and the importance of lifting others as you grow. Listen for insight on community building, women-led initiatives, and creating platforms that amplify underrepresented voices.
