**Recurring on the first and third Monday of the month**
Rise & Thrive - Gathering is a warm, welcoming space for women entrepreneurs to gather, share, and grow. We believe in authentic connection, mutual support, and lifting each other up. Set your intention for the week, exchange ideas, and attract opportunities by surrounding yourself with kindness, encouragement, and like-minded energy.
What Makes Rise & Thrive Different
• Drop-in, not lifetime contracts: You can come when it fits your life. No mandatory weekly commitment, no guilt trips if you miss a session.
• Affordable: Many groups cost hundreds (or thousands) annually. Rise & Thrive is intentionally low-cost or free, keeping the barrier to entry small so more women can participate.
• Authentic referrals, not forced: Instead of mandatory “bring two referrals or else,” the expectation is: if someone’s business genuinely resonates with you, share it. Trust builds referrals naturally.
• A touch of woo-woo (in a good way): We acknowledge the power of mindset, intention setting, and law of attraction. Start your week with a little energy reset, not just a business card exchange.
• Skill-building woven in: Short tips on how to network meaningfully — things like asking better questions, following up gracefully, or building relationships instead of collecting contacts. • Safe, supportive culture: This is not about “working the room.” It’s about kindness, encouragement, and creating an environment where women feel lifted, not judged.
• No exclusivity – if we have five bookkeepers, so be it! We believe in abundance, not scarcity. ________________________________________
Core Philosophy Rise & Thrive isn’t just networking — it’s about creating an authentic ecosystem of support.
Gather. Build. Thrive.
• Gather: come together, drop in when you can.
• Build: relationships, confidence, skills, referrals.
• Thrive: in business, in life, as part of a local women’s community.
