  Let's Talk AI: How to Use it Without Losing You

  AI is woven into our everyday lives—whether we ask Alexa for the weather, binge a Netflix recommendation, or shop on Amazon. But beyond the buzzwords and big tech headlines, what does AI actually mean for us as humans, creatives, and professionals?

  You've probably heard names like Claude, Gemini, ChatGPT, and Midjourney, or companies like OpenAI and Nvidia rolling out innovations, but we’ll talk about what makes AI important and what our role as humans is in working alongside it. By understanding AI, we can feel more confident using it and stay present in a world that’s now being built a little differently.

  In this interactive session, we’ll break down what today’s leading AI platforms really do, why they matter, and how you can work with them while staying grounded in your own human creativity. We’ll have Q&A throughout with real-time demos of current AI tools so you can see them in action.

  See you there!

  Make Connections!

  Connections meetings are special opportunities available for our members to host to meet other members in smaller groups. Plus now our connection meetings are open to anyone interested in learning from our members! The Year You Stop Running on Empty: A Sound Journey & Reset for Women Who Do It All As women in business, we carry more than most people will ever see. We run companies, manage households, support our families, and hold the emotional and mental weight of everyone around us. It’s no wonder so many of us start the new year already exhausted. This Connections Meeting is an invitation to begin this year differently. Join us for a restorative evening at the Center for Sound & Ceremony, where we’ll explore how to step into the new year from a place of grounding, clarity, and reconnection — instead of depletion. We’ll discuss: The difference between stress and overwhelm -Why women entrepreneurs often run on empty How burnout builds up in the body  Why it’s essential to care for yourself physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually  From there, you’ll be guided through a 45-minute sound journey designed to help you regulate your nervous system, soften the pressure you’ve been carrying, and reconnect with your inner steadiness. We’ll close the evening with a simple commitment practice to help you identify one meaningful action you’re ready to take to support your well-being in the months ahead—along with what may need to shift so you can truly stay committed. You’ll leave feeling grounded, nourished, and reconnected to yourself—with clear intentions for how you’ll support your own energy as you move through the year. This gathering is for the women who do it all… and are ready to stop doing it alone. What to Expect We will be on the floor on comfy mats for the sound journey. Mats and blankets are provided. We do have a couple of chairs available for those who need them. To Prepare Dress comfortably (mats + blankets provided) Hydrate throughout the day to support your energetic process Bring a water bottle, journal, and pen Important Arrival Instructions Please arrive between 6:15–6:25 PM.

  Galentine's Social

  Celebrate Galentine’s Day with an evening centered on connection, conversation, and community.

  This event is a chance to step away from the busy day to day and spend time with women who value meaningful relationships, shared experiences, and genuine support. Whether you are reconnecting with familiar faces or meeting someone new, the atmosphere is relaxed, welcoming, and pressure free.

  You will be part of a shared experience designed to spark conversation, creativity, and connection. Come for the laughs, stay for the conversations, and leave feeling refreshed and inspired.

  There is no agenda to master and no expectations to meet. Just show up exactly as you are.

  You will leave with new connections, great memories, and a renewed sense of belonging within our community.

  This event is open to members and guests. Bring a friend you would love to spend the evening with.

  Because Galentine’s Day is more than a celebration. It is a reminder of how powerful it is to gather with the right people.

  We cannot wait to connect and celebrate with you.

  P.S. We are also giving back this Galentine's!
