Business Description

Private Women’s Social Club | Houston, Texas

Founded in Houston, Texas, The Powerhouse Woman Assoc is a private, membership-based women’s social club designed for cultured, ambitious, and socially engaged women seeking elevated connection through curated experiences.

Inspired by the global private club model exemplified by Soho House, the club offers a refined alternative to traditional networking—one rooted in intimacy, intention, and shared lifestyle values rather than transactional exchange.

P.H.W.A serves as both a social collective and experiential house without walls—bringing members together through thoughtfully designed retreats, private dining experiences, cultural gatherings, and luxury domestic and international travel.

Purpose & Philosophy

At its core, P.H.W.A exists to cultivate meaningful relationships among women who value privacy, aesthetic excellence, and experiential living. Membership is centered on belonging, access, and trust, not status or profession. Much like Soho House, the club prioritizes community chemistry, discretion, and cultural alignment over mass enrollment.

The club is intentionally women-only and selectively curated to ensure a consistent experience across all offerings.
