### **🥃 “True story… the best networking happens when you’re a little uncomfortable.” 😎**

**Before the family comes to town, or you jump on a plane for the holidays — come join us for something worth talking about.**

**The Silicon Beach Networking Event is happening Tuesday, December 17th at Cigars International, 4808 Town Center Pkwy, Jacksonville, FL 32246.**
**🕔 5:00 p.m. until we run out of stories (or cigars).**

**Now, I’ve been asked — “Why not host this at a pizza shop?”**
**Well, first of all… I’m from New Jersey. And to avoid offending too many people, let me just say — the closest good pizza is at Exit 0 in Cape May. So fugettaboutit! 🍕😂**

**Second, almost everyone feels a little out of place at a cigar lounge.**

**That’s the point.**

**When you’re out of your comfort zone, the conversations get real — honest, curious, and full of energy. You’ll find yourself talking about Silicon Beach, saying “I can’t believe I’m here,” or maybe even “Are you really going to try that cigar?”**

**That’s where the magic happens. New connections. Real discussions. Big ideas.**

**There’s a method to my madness — growth happens just outside the comfort zone.**

**If this sounds like too much adventure for one evening, no worries — join us instead for our Coffee Klatch ☕ on December 11th at Sago Coffee in Jax Beach. We won’t judge. (But we’ll definitely notice 😉)**

**Let’s network, laugh, and maybe even light up some new opportunities together.**
