Vintage 76 · Est. 2026
The chapter where you stop waiting for life to begin and start savoring every moment. A lifestyle community for women who have spent decades building a life — and are finally ready to enjoy it.
The Philosophy
Vintage 76 was built on a premise the entire self-help industry has missed: the most revolutionary thing a woman can do at this stage of her life is decide she is done becoming worthy of her own life — and just start living it.
"She doesn't seek something to fix her. She seeks something to support her — and that is sisterhood."— The Vintage 76 Way
"Transformation doesn't have to look like work. It can help you let your hair down and have fun. It can give you a reprieve from the heavy parts of life. It can help you laugh or smile during the most challenging times."— Chà Jones, Founder
"Family is connected by blood. On Thursdays, you come and connect with the women you're connected to by choice."— First Pour Society
Her Story
I'm a well-traveled Black woman from the Midwest with deep southern roots. First-generation to break many barriers. Educated. Grounded. A little bougie, a little hood. I've lived in South Korea, Mexico, and Malaysia. I've traveled to 40+ countries. I'm a single mother who lives a life of vacay on my own terms — no permission needed.
For over thirty years, I have been a facilitator of personal development in one form or another. I've been an instructional designer, professor, marketing professional, author, and speaker. I have hosted and curated events that bring people together on multiple continents. And after all those years of loving to travel, to gather, to cook, to connect, to transform — I realized I wanted to bring it all into one space.
When I entered my Vintage Era — having turned fifty — I sat with a question most women at this stage are afraid to ask out loud: What do I actually want the rest of my living to look like? The answer was simple. I want to host the table. I want to bring extraordinary women around it. And I want to go far, laugh hard, and leave nothing on the table.
I created Vintage 76 because women of a certain refinement deserve to live freely, connect with purpose, and experience life on their own terms. Not as an afterthought. Not as a consolation prize. But as the richest, most expanded, most unapologetic version of what it means to be alive.
Welcome
Vintage 76 is a lifestyle brand and sisterhood network for women in their Vintage Era — the season of life where you stop performing and start living. Where the adventure and the elegance coexist. Where the professional success and the personal peace are not in conflict. Where the world-travel and the home-gathering both have a place at the table.
We are an intentional media and lifestyle platform built around the things women actually need in midlife and beyond — real food, real culture, real travel, real wellbeing, and real conversation. We start every month at the table and we go from there — as far as the world will take us.

In Her Words
"Every conversation with Chà changes how I see myself. She has a way of saying the thing you needed to hear, so gently you don't feel the shift happening."— Community Member
"She creates spaces where you instantly feel like you belong. I walked in a stranger and left feeling like I'd known these women my whole life."— Retreat Guest
"Chà doesn't just talk about living fully — she shows you what it looks like. Watching her live gave me permission to start living too."— Client & Friend
The Difference
The entire self-help industry is built on a premise that something is wrong with you — and that the right program, the right coach, the right modality will finally fix it.
Vintage 76 was built on the opposite premise.
"When a woman fully embodies this part of her journey, she doesn't seek something to fix her. She seeks something to support her — and that is sisterhood."
You have already done extraordinary things. You have survived, rebuilt, grown, given, created, and become. What you need now isn't another transformation program. What you need is a sisterhood that meets you exactly where you are — and a table worth sitting at.
We build the table. You bring yourself. The rest — the laughter, the revelations, the breakthroughs that don't feel like work — those happen naturally when the right women are in the right room.
Come to the TableThe Vintage Life
This is not one aesthetic. Not one prescription. Not one path. This is a world — and you get to choose how you enter it. Food. Culture. Sisterhood. Travel. All of it. Integrated. Unapologetic. Whole.
Lifestyle & Reinvention
Midlife is not a wind-down — it's a reinvention. This is where style, self, and second chapters get redefined on your terms.
Sisterhood & Belonging
Real connection, not performative networking. Women who see you, hold you, and celebrate every version of who you're becoming.
Food & Gathering
The table has always been sacred. Recipes, rituals, and the kind of gathering that feeds more than the body.
Exploration & Culture
The world is wide and you've earned the passport stamps. Cultural immersion, soft adventure, and seeing it all on your own terms.
First Pour Society
Imagine a chilled evening with the women you call your tribe. A night of conversation with a curated soulful playlist in the background. Stories. A bunch of laughter. A good time with the women you choose to be with.
That's First Pour Society. No performance. No agenda. No program. Just the kind of evening you used to have — and somehow lost somewhere between building your life and living it.
This is your Thursday back.
A curated digital experience — destination spotlight, conversation cards, recipes, playlist, and reflection prompts. A new world, every month.
Every first Thursday we come together. Pour something good. Talk about something real. Leave feeling more like yourself than when you arrived.
Access to a community of women who are done performing and ready to live. Your chosen family. Connected by purpose, not by circumstance.
Each season we travel — in spirit, in culture, in flavor. Greece. Thailand. Mexico City. The world through the eyes of women who know how to live.
The Media Arm
A conversation about living freely and fully — wherever you are. No green room. No script. Just real talk about midlife, reinvention, freedom, and the world as your stage. Every episode is a reminder that you don't need permission to live well, travel far, or take up space exactly as you are.
Two women. One bottle. Zero filters. Uncorked & Unbothered is the podcast where high-achieving women in midlife say the things out loud they've been thinking in private. Culture. Relationships. Freedom. The kind of conversation your Thursday table has been missing — and the one you didn't know you needed until right now.
The only question is whether you're going to keep waiting for permission — or finally walk through the door that's been open all along. The table is set. The playlist is on. The women are gathering. Come as you are.
