SOME WOMEN
HOST DINNERS.
SOME QUIETLY SHAPE THEIR CITIES.

City Living Network designs and builds city guides for women who want to lead the narrative of their town.

FOR THE WOMAN PEOPLE ALREADY TRUST

You’re the one friends text before they make a reservation.

The one who knows where to go — and when.

You pay attention. You love hosting. You naturally connect people.

A city guide you own becomes a natural extension of that role.

It’s not a job. It’s not a hustle.

It’s a way to formalize what you already do.

  • A city guide blends trusted recommendations with your own personal perspective.

    Each guide is custom designed to bring influence, spotlight community, and grow with your lifestyle.

  • We build the entire foundation, including website, branding, structure, and an initial body of content so you are never starting from zero.

    From there, you show up when it feels natural.

    No posting quotas. No pressure to perform.

    Just a well-built platform that supports the life you already live.

  • This is designed to move slowly.

    Most guides grow through moments, not momentum.

    A dinner worth sharing. A weekend away. A place you love and return to.

    Some months are quiet. Others are visible.

    Share what you already love doing.

City Living Network Founder Lindsay DeLong | Modern City Guides for Passionate Locals | How to Build a City Guide

HI, I’M LINDSAY

Founder of City Living Network, and also Editor-in-Chief of my own city guide in Laguna Beach.

What began as a personal project quickly grew into a trusted local platform, Laguna Beach Living — one that led to press trips, long-term brand partnerships, and a real seat at the table in my own town.

As LBL grew, women from other cities began asking how something similar could exist in their towns.

City Living Network was born from those early conversations.

Today, I work with select women to build city guides of their own — each one designed carefully, owned outright, and built to evolve over time.

IN THE WILD

EVERY city guide begins with one person who LOVES THEIR TOWN.

What follows is a living reference. A point of view. A presence that grows through real life.

These are independently owned city guides, each led by a local editor.

FROM THE FIELD

Kama Hagar leads Maui Makai, a city guide rooted in lived experience and local connection.

What began as a way to document her town became something deeper. A trusted presence. Real relationships. A platform that carries weight locally.

“What I didn’t expect was how naturally this opened doors. Relationships, invitations, and a real sense of credibility in my town.

It never felt like content creation. It felt like something life-changing.”

– Kama Hagar, MauiMakai.com
