Fern Connections was started because our CEO, Matchmaker, and Head Coach Daphney Poyser noticed a lack of diversity and inclusivity within the world of matchmaking, specifically as it relates to LGBTQIA+ matchmaking. Since then she has made it her mission to create a company and a team of people that are committed to serving this community and providing resources for people within marginalized spaces. We do what we do everyday because we love it, and a huge part of that is due to you–the amazing people we get to call our friends, our community, and hopefully our clients.

Mission Statement

Our mission as a company is to create a safe space where people feel welcomed to live as their most authentic selves. From our community events to coaching sessions, we want our clients to know that they can show up as they are and that they will be accepted for who they are, regardless of their gender or sexuality. We aspire to inspire people across the country to live and love in their truth; to embrace inclusivity and to leave exclusionary mindsets at the door. At Fern Connections we believe that love, community, and connection are key elements of creating a life worth living, and we are so happy to have you joining us here, in the Fern Connections Family.
