After spending fifteen years building a career across corporate technology—including hardware, software, cloud, data center, and cybersecurity—entrepreneur, strategist, and founder Lorissa Violet is bringing her professional expertise into a deeply personal new venture: Lorissa’s List, a technology-powered platform designed to help women and families search less, trust more, and reclaim their most valuable resource—time.
Created at the intersection of modern technology and traditional discernment, Lorissa’s List is a curated, invite-only platform where trusted businesses, products, and services are selected through the same lens Lorissa uses in her own life: quality, research, values, and excellence.
For Lorissa, the idea emerged from a growing pattern in everyday life—friends, colleagues, and followers consistently asking the same questions: Who do you trust? What do you buy? Where do you go? What actually works?
Rather than adding to the noise of endless online options, conflicting reviews, and paid placements, Lorissa’s List was built to narrow people down to better ones.
“I’ve always been extremely particular about what I bring into my home, what I use for my children, which businesses I trust, and who I allow around my family,” said Lorissa. “That level of vetting became second nature to me, and I realized many women are looking for exactly that—trusted filtration, not more information.”
Unlike open-review platforms, Lorissa’s List combines advanced search functionality with highly intentional curation. Users can search across categories including wellness, beauty, parenting, home, lifestyle, household essentials, and trusted local services through detailed business profiles, personal reviews, and product recommendations that have already been filtered through real standards.
The platform also includes a direct shop experience through Shopify Collective, allowing select brands and businesses to sell directly within the ecosystem.
Designed to feel familiar in usability yet distinct in philosophy, Lorissa’s List functions with the efficiency of a modern search engine while preserving the trust and human judgment often lost in digital marketplaces.
“Technology should simplify life, not complicate it,” Lorissa said. “I spent years building systems that helped organizations operate more efficiently, and I saw an opportunity to apply that same thinking to everyday life. But what mattered to me was making sure technology served people without replacing trust, discernment, or human connection.”
What makes the platform distinct is not simply its technology, but its intentional model: every brand, business, and product featured is invited or carefully considered based on alignment in quality, consistency, and shared values.
Lorissa believes that in an era dominated by algorithms, paid visibility, and consumer overload, thoughtful curation has become increasingly valuable—particularly for women balancing careers, children, households, and countless daily decisions.
“Women are making hundreds of decisions every day,” she said. “If we can remove even a fraction of the unnecessary searching, researching, second-guessing, and trial-and-error, that time goes back to what matters most—family, relationships, health, and living well.”
The platform reflects both Lorissa’s corporate background and personal identity: highly researched, systems-oriented, family-centered, and deeply rooted in traditional values.
Future expansion for Lorissa’s List includes additional recommendation intelligence, enhanced user personalization, community-based validation features, and expanded business integration—while maintaining its core philosophy of intentional trust.
“This platform is not about offering more options,” Lorissa added. “It is about offering better ones.”
