The Paris Pirouette: A Global Mastermind for Women Entrepreneurs
Six months virtual. Two days in Paris. One extraordinary cohort.
June - November
A six-month mastermind for women entrepreneurs, founders, and business owners in their 40s, 50s, and beyond.
Women join from across the US, Europe, and beyond — we meet virtually twice a month, then come together in Paris for a November celebration retreat.
Six months of growth and connection, ending with a harvest celebration retreat in Paris.
Meet in Paris: November 18th – 19th, 2026
Beginning in June, a small group of women business owners, founders, and entrepreneurs will meet virtually twice a month to sharpen strategy, troubleshoot real challenges, and hold each other accountable.
Our six months together culminate in an in-person business retreat in Paris during the iconic Beaujolais Nouveau — two days to connect, collaborate, and celebrate what you've built
The Paris Pirouette—where women entrepreneurs master the art of the pivot.
A curated mastermind for women entrepreneurs, founders, and business owners who are done going it alone and ready to grow their businesses alongside peers who match their ambition.
Strategic, collaborative, and direct — this is not a networking group. It's a working group. The grand finalé: two days together in Paris to celebrate what you've accomplished.
Community and Connection is the new Superpower

I created The Paris Pirouette because I know how powerful it is when women entrepreneurs and business owners have a dedicated space to think out loud, exchange ideas, and grow alongside other exceptional women.

Community and Connection
This is your cohort - a small group of women who will challenge your thinking, share what's actually working, and keep you honest about what you said you'd do.
Bonjour. I’m Jane Bertch
Why come on this journey with me? My own life has been a testament to embracing change.
I moved to Paris over twenty years ago and built La Cuisine Paris from scratch — no culinary background, no business experience, and barely any French. That company is still running today. I've navigated three major career pivots, earned an Executive Master's from INSEAD in Coaching & Consulting for Change, and written a bestselling memoir about the whole messy, beautiful process. I don't teach theory. I share what I've learned by doing it — and I bring that to every session of the Pirouette.
