At the heart, Business Relationship Alliance exists to foster collaboration, connection, and community amongst female and non-binary entrepreneurs.
OUR MISSION
Our mission is to foster a community where we uplift female and non-binary entrepreneurs and provide support, resources, and opportunities for connection in an inclusive space where you are seen, respected, and accepted.

  • We provide Members with opportunities for authentic connection.

  • We provide Members opportunities to uplevel their business(es).

OUR SHARED CORE VALUES

A BRA Member shares in the understanding that:

  • We embody a collaborative mindset and encourage our Members to hire each other first.

  • We believe entrepreneurship is part of your multi-faceted, integrated human experience. It IS personal. It’s business.

  • We believe that vulnerability is a superpower. You’re safe with us.

  • We invest in one another — and women and non-binary people everywhere — by sharing our resources (knowledge, experience, connections, time, energy, and money).

  • We help our Members get more business thereby changing the landscape of the current global economy and our place in it.

  • We are purposeful in building businesses that are reflections of a diverse inclusive community and not a homogenized group.

  • We have a shared obligation to build businesses that think globally and act ethically in their business practices and production. We give back to our greater communities whenever possible, individually and as a collective.

  • … and we enjoy the journey!

THE FOUNDER

Carrie Murray is the Founder of BRA – Business Relationship Alliance.

Carrie has demonstrated her passion for empowering women for decades. She received her Bachelor’s in Social Work with an emphasis in Domestic Violence. She worked as a court advocate, helping victims understand their rights and navigate the judicial system. She then went on to get a Master’s in Social Justice.

Later, Carrie became a teacher, an administrator at a public charter school, and ultimately a Principal.

In 2011, Carrie began her own entrepreneurial journey by starting a school for twice exceptional kids, Prestique Academy of Innovation and Technology.

Eventually, BRA was born out of a shared need among her friends who also owned businesses — a need for community, a place to share experience, provide advice, seek education, and receive support from like-minded female entrepreneurs.

Carrie is also the Founder of the Wealthy Women Summit, a speaker, and the podcast host of Get Carried Away.
