Our Story
The Life Atlas Foundation was born from a desire to connect positive, passionate, purpose-filled women and teens to each other. What began as a dream by one woman has resulted in thousands of individuals connecting to uplift, inspire, and encourage one another to live their biggest dreams and most heartfelt desires.
Founded in 2012 by Erin Lewis, the Life Atlas Foundation (formerly the Dream Queen Foundation) offers a safe space where women and teens can come together to support one another and celebrate their dreams.
​
Today, the Life Atlas Foundation hosts a number of thriving teen mentorship clubs, leadership programs, and impactful events throughout Southern Maryland that only continue to grow thanks to the countless, powerful women who guide our young adults and the communities where they work and live.
​
We envision a world where all women and teens have the knowledge and support, they need to step into positions of leadership and bring their whole selves to impact the world, making it a more positive, peaceful, and joyful place to live.
​
The Life Atlas Foundation offers networking, retreats, conferences, club programs, and workshops to help women and teens align careers with passion and purpose, embrace authenticity and transparency in positions of power and influence, and replace greed and corruption with heart and soul.

Our Guiding Principles
There is only one special, unique you on the planet. Choosing to mimic, copy, or replicate someone else is impossible. Our favorite quote comes from the visionary leader and founder of Apple, Steve Jobs, “Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma – which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of other’s opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”
​
Uplift, Inspire, Encourage. The world is full of negative, energy draining people and we refuse to participate. Instead, we choose joy, love, and happiness by sharing in the success of our sisters.
​
Desire is a Roadmap. When you allow your heart’s greatest desires to guide, you unleash the deepest part of your heart and soul. Expansion and growth will certainly follow.
​
Actions = Results. For all the dreamers in the world, there is a reduced percentage willing to do the work. Not because they can’t, but because they haven’t chosen to show up for themselves and take action. We believe taking action is paramount to creating the life of your dreams.
