LeadHERship Women Connect: September Improv Night for Powerful Women Leaders

Details

WHAT'S HAPPENING:

This September, our Leadership Workshop Night flips the script:
Instead of pitch decks or polished introductions, we’re bringing you an Improv Night—a laughter-filled evening where you can drop the pressure, silence the inner critic, and rediscover the joy of saying yes.

Forget “perfect.” Forget selling yourself. Forget the small talk.

This is about real connection, real laughter, and maybe even real lifelong friendships (yes, 60 minutes of improv can do that!).

WHAT TO EXPECT:

  • 60 minutes of playful improv games — no stage experience required, just bring your willingness to laugh.
  • Freedom from perfection — this is a space to experiment, mess up, and discover your brilliance anyway.
  • Connection through laughter — improv sparks authenticity faster than business cards ever could.
  • Community share & mingle — we’ll close with reflections, connections, and (of course) more laughs.

You’ll walk away lighter, brighter, and more connected — with new friends who’ve seen you at your most playful and said yes right alongside you.

WHO IS THIS FOR?

You’ll love this night if you are a:

  • Founder or entrepreneur tired of always “having it together”
  • Corporate leader or executive ready to let go of pressure for a night
  • Speaker, coach, or consultant craving authentic connection
  • Creative or innovator who wants to loosen up and recharge
  • Emerging leader learning to trust her own voice
  • Woman who’s done playing small — and ready to laugh big

WHY JOIN?

Because laughter is leadership, too.

Because confidence grows in the moments we stop trying to be perfect.

Because community built through play lasts far beyond a workshop.

Here, we don’t just network — we connect.

We don’t just perform — we play.

We don’t just meet — we make magic together.

✨ Come as you are. Leave with new friends, inside jokes, and a lighter heart.
