What to Expect at the Heart-Centered Business Meetup
This isn’t just a sit-and-listen event.
Each meetup includes a short teaching segment where I’ll introduce a topic related to growing your audience, making an impact, or increasing your income.
From there, you’ll engage in breakout sessions, group sharing, and fun collaborative activities. You'll leave with fresh ideas, new connections, and a renewed sense of purpose.
