The Empowerment Soiree
The Empowerment Soiree is an intimate evening designed for women who are ready to own the room — and everything they've built to get there.
Set in a stunning Chelsea loft in the heart of Manhattan, the space is as intentional as the evening itself — warm, sophisticated, and designed to make you feel like you belong exactly where you are.
Gather with an extraordinary community of women for an evening of curated experiences, including wine education, artisan cheese and charcuterie pairing, a grounding writing workshop, and a shoe fitting showcase — all under one roof.
This is a space where meaningful connections happen naturally, confidence is the dress code, and every experience is designed to remind you of exactly who you are.
All guests will enjoy the following experiences:
✦ Uncorked — with Erin Reddan of ECR Vintners. Wine shouldn't feel intimidating. Erin removes the mystique so you can walk into any room — or any restaurant — and order with confidence. A tasting experience designed to educate, delight, and make you feel like you belong at any table.
✦ The Spread — with Sarah of Madam Sara(H) Charcuterie & Grazing. This isn't just a board; it's an experience. Sarah is known for designing eye-catching, artistically crafted boards where every ingredient is hand-selected with intention. She’ll bring that same artistry to the soiree—guiding you through the art of pairing. Equal parts education and indulgence. Because the best connections always happen around a beautiful spread.
✦ With Intention — with Deidre Woll of Heal with Deidre. Before you can own the room, you have to own yourself. Deidre, a certified Reiki healer and meditation guide, will lead you through an intentional writing experience where you'll develop your own personal grounding prompts — a tool to quiet the noise that you can carry into every room, every introduction, and every moment that asks you to show up fully.
✦ Step Into Yourself — with Yvonne Liao of Yvonne Liao NYC. Shoes aren't just accessories — they're the foundation of how you show up. Yvonne Liao brings her curated collection of hand-embellished, women-designed footwear to the soiree, giving you the chance to try on styles built for the modern woman—comfortable, bold, and effortlessly polished. Because when your foundation is right, everything else follows.
