Ladies,

As an entrepreneur or creative, there comes a moment when you have to pitch your ideas, whether it's to a potential partner, a future client, or even an investor. This workshop is your chance to practice, refine, and grow in a supportive space.

In this hands-on session, you’ll get to:

• Learn useful techniques for crafting and delivering a compelling pitch
• Train your presentation skills in a relaxed, encouraging atmosphere
• Share your pitch idea (if you’d like—no pressure!) and receive helpful, constructive feedback

✨ This is a safe space to try things out, make mistakes, learn from each other, and grow your confidence.

🙋🏽‍♀️ No pitch deck needed! Just bring your ideas and your voice. A few volunteers will have the chance to give short presentations during the session.

Let’s pitch together! 💜

Ladies,

Are you working harder than ever in your business—but not seeing the growth, freedom, or stability you hoped for? 🫠 The problem isn’t effort, it’s direction. Without the right systems and strategies, it’s easy to end up in a cycle of burnout, inefficiency, and missed opportunities.

This workshop is designed to help entrepreneurs, managers, and growth-focused professionals shift from reactive firefighting to proactive leadership. 🙋🏽‍♀️ Using practical frameworks and real-world examples, Mariela will show smart lessons on how to build a business that grows without consuming every ounce of time and energy.

✨ What you’ll learn:

• Smarter time management: Learn to protect your focus, run purposeful meetings, and embrace rest as a productivity multiplier.
• Stronger foundations: Discover how delegation, processes, and value-driven networking free you to work on the business, not just in it.
• Smarter money & branding: Understand how to use financial tools strategically and build a brand presence that inspires trust.
• Agile growth & resilience: Gain practical methods to adapt quickly, diversify, and thrive in uncertain markets.

By the end of this session, you’ll leave with actionable tools to streamline your operations, strengthen your strategy, and unlock growth without burning out. You’ll be challenged to identify your biggest growth blockers and walk away with at least one lesson you can apply tomorrow.

**RESCHEDULED**

Ladies,

Home is supposed to feel like… well, home. But sometimes it doesn’t. Maybe you're living in a WG room, a temporary apartment, or just a space that doesn’t really reflect who you are right now. That’s where this workshop comes in. 🪴

Inna will share down-to-earth ideas and little tricks that can make a big difference—things you can do without a huge budget or a full-on renovation. 🛋️ It’s not about creating a picture-perfect Pinterest home. It’s about creating a place that feels good to be in, that actually supports you and your creative life. 👩‍💻

We’ll also pause for some reflection, because only you know what you really need from your space. A corner that calms you down? More energy when you walk into the room? Together, we’ll explore how to set that intention and bring it into reality.

Let’s make your space work for you! ✨

📝 What to bring:

• Something to write with—paper, your phone, whatever works.
• If you feel like it, you can bring a photo of your room so you can think directly about your own space.

🎤 About the speaker:
Inna is a designer and creative who’s obsessed with how spaces shape the way we feel. Over the years, she has worked on everything from interiors to running her own projects, and the most valuable lesson she has learned is this: a beautiful space doesn’t have to be expensive or perfect, it just has to be yours.
