ABOUT US
We are a multimedia company for women's wealth & wellbeing
Our Founder Patricia A. Reed started Matriark as a concept store in Sag Harbor in 2019 featuring Women and LGBTQI+ owned brands, and since then Matriark has evolved into a multimedia company focusing on women's wealth and wellbeing.
We believe every woman deserves to feel well, live well, and thrive - mind, body, and bank account. We comb the globe and pool resources, featuring unique products, incredible services, and invaluable insights from leaders in multiple fields to enrich your life and help you live your best life.

"Nobody is coming to save us. We need to do the work ourselves, set time aisde to take care of our bodies, our minds, our communities. If we want to be healthy (and by that I mean in every way, not just physically), we need to start prioritizing wellbeing (including $) in our lives. I learned that the hard way, but I am committed to living as well as I can. I want to have real conversations, to share products and hacks that have been helpful to me and my family, to invite friends and people who inspire me to share their thoughts and wisdom, and to have as much fun as legally possible. This is what Matriark is about: real life unfolding, with a much-needed focus on women's true wellbeing. - Patricia A. Reed
While we welcome and celebrate all people, our curatorial process prioritizes women and LGBTQI+ people and their business.
