In this episode, we chat about the moment her inner voice started telling her that she was meant for more and the idea that came to her after lots of self-reflection: which was to bring women together to cultivate friendships and community, how she approached creating unique events and experiences and what played a role in the incredible momentum she built in year one with 50 events, her best tips and techniques for being an amazing host who makes every attendee feel comfortable and seen, AND ensures everyone leaves with a new connection, why she’s so passionate about authentic in-person connection, her thoughts on social media platforms, and what we can all be doing to have a better relationship with these platforms, and so much more!
