Budget Battles to Board Buy-In
Every growth leader faces the same challenge: how do you justify sales and marketing spend to a board skeptical of “soft returns”?
This workshop equips founders and revenue leaders with a proven framework to translate strategy into compelling numbers — turning budgets into defendable, data-backed growth investments. Participants will learn how to structure board-level conversations, demonstrate ROI in terms investors care about, and avoid the traps of over-promising without evidence.
Takeaway: CEOs and CROs will leave with a structured method for making budget cases that align with investor expectations and withstand scrutiny.

Harness Your Body’s Superpower: The Menstrual Cycle
Own Your Superpower: Turn Your Menstrual Cycle Into Your Body’s Scheduling Agent
How???
Through a morning of cycle syncing, wellness talks by women’s health coaches, a sound bath meditation and of course a tea and match bar.👏
———————————————————————
Discover how syncing your cycle, energy, and mind can transform your daily life.
✨ Meditation. Menstrual Health. Mental Clarity. ✨
Join us for a multi sensory morning designed for women who are ready to step into a more aligned version of success, one that flows with our cycles, not against it.
We’ll begin with a guided sound bath meditation to ground our energy, soften the edges, and create space for what wants to rise.
Then we’ll move into an interactive speaker circle with bold women (including you) who will share their personal and professional journeys.
Together, we’ll explore:
· How to work with your menstrual cycle as a tool for energy, focus, and rest
· The intersection of mental health, hormones, and high performance
· What it means to sync, not hustle and why that shift is revolutionary
· Real talk for women building big things in a system that wasn’t built for our bodies
⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️
This is a gathering for the fearless, and the tired. The ambitious and the intuitive. The women craving space to pause, reconnect, and remember their inner wisdom.
Come sip tea, share space, and sync up with a community that gets it.
