The Gathering Series: Coffee + Connection at Vibes Cafe
📍 Vibes Cafe – La Grange
🗓 August 28 | 9–10:30am
A relaxed morning gathering for women building businesses, ideas, and meaningful work.
This isn’t a traditional networking event.
There’s no agenda, no pitches, and no pressure to meet everyone in the room.
The Gathering Series is simply a space to step away from your usual routine for a bit, meet other thoughtful women in the area, and have real conversations about what you’re building, exploring, or figuring out next.
Whether you're a solopreneur, small business owner, creative, or simply someone who enjoys connecting with other women doing interesting things, you're welcome here.
We'll start at 9:30 am with a short round of guided introductions to help people meet a few others in the room, and then the rest of the morning is open for conversation.
9:00 – Arrival, coffee, and casual conversation
9:30 – Short guided introductions
9:45–10:30 – Open conversation
Coffee and specialty drinks available for purchase.
Space is limited to keep the gathering comfortable and conversational.
