Achieving Success Without Burnout: A Wellness Talk for the High-Performing Woman

You’ve mastered how to perform under pressure—but has anyone taught you how to protect your body from the long-term cost of carrying it?

Chronic stress can quietly affect sleep, energy, metabolism, hormones, and overall well-being. And as women move through perimenopause and menopause, the same workload they once handled with ease can suddenly feel very different.

Join AJ Bales, MSN, FNP-C, ABAAHP, board-certified family nurse practitioner specializing in functional medicine, hormone optimization, and longevity care, for an empowering conversation about protecting your health while continuing to pursue the life and success you’ve worked hard to build.

AJ helps make complex health information approachable, giving women practical tools to better understand their bodies, restore balance, and support their long-term health.

In this session, you’ll learn how to:

Understand what your body is telling you. Recognize signs of chronic stress and hormonal changes—and why your ability to handle stress may shift over time.

Build greater resilience. Explore realistic strategies to support sleep, energy, mental clarity, metabolism, and recovery.

Protect your future health. Learn about preventive, functional medicine, hormone, and longevity assessments that can help identify potential health risks earlier.

You’ll leave with a clearer understanding of what may be happening in your body and practical ways to support your health without simply “pushing through.”

Join us Wednesday, October 21st at 9 AM on Zoom!

The Ask Ladder: Depth Over Width, One Ask At A Time

Here's an unpopular opinion: most people don't actually struggle to receive support because they're bad at asking. They struggle because they expect results from relationships they've barely invested in. They want the intro, the referral, the favor, but they haven't made the deposits that make someone want to say yes. 

In this session, community building expert Haley Westfall introduces the Ask Ladder — a framework for ensuring your asks are only as big as the relationship can carry and specific enough that the right person can say yes without hesitating.

This highly interactive session includes multiple breakout rotations giving attendees the opportunity to be up, moving, and working directly with different members throughout. This allows them to put the framework into practice hands-on rather than simply sitting and listening.

In this session, attendees will walk away with:

1. A clear framework (The Ask Ladder) for turning any vague need into a specific, actionable ask someone can actually say yes to.

2. An honest assessment of why their asks aren't landing and how to size a request to match what they've actually invested in a relationship.

3. Real practice through three live breakout rounds making an actual ask out loud, with one concrete ask to follow up on this week.

Join us Wednesday, September 23rd at 9 AM!

Make ChatGPT Your Next Referral Partner to Increase Your Revenue

How are your future customers finding you?

The answer has changed with every generation. Boomers relied on word-of-mouth. Gen X leaned into referrals and relationships. Millennials added Google searches, online reviews, and social media.

Now, the next generation is asking AI.

Instead of searching through pages of websites, more and more consumers are turning to AI-powered search engines like ChatGPT to research businesses, compare options, and decide who to hire. The question is: Will your business show up?

Join Stephanie for an eye-opening workshop that explores how AI is changing the way customers discover businesses—and how you can position your business to stay ahead of the curve.

Using a real case study, Stephanie will walk you through how she analyzed a business through the lens of ChatGPT and helped it become one of ChatGPT's top recommendations in less than a month.

Whether you're a service provider, coach, consultant, or local business owner, this session will give you practical insights you can begin applying immediately.

In this session, you'll learn how to:

✅ Explore a real-world case study showing how ChatGPT became a powerful referral source for a business

✅ Understand how AI-powered search engines work—and why they're becoming increasingly important for the future of marketing and sales

✅ Learn how to analyze your own business through the lens of AI and walk away with an immediate action plan to increase your visibility

As the way consumers search continues to evolve, businesses that understand AI visibility today will have a significant advantage tomorrow. This workshop will help you understand what that means—and how to prepare your business for what's next.

Join us live on Wednesday, August 19th at 9 AM on Zoom!

✨ Tell People What You're Good At ✨

How to Share Your Work, Strengths, and Goals So the Right Opportunities Can Find You

A lot of business owners assume their work will speak for itself.

They believe that if they do a great job, stay consistent, and mention something once, the right people will notice.

But people are busy. They forget. And they can only act on what you've made clear to them.

Join Cassandra Thompson, globally recognized speaker, career expert, and networking strategist, for a highly interactive workshop designed to help you confidently communicate your strengths, accomplishments, and goals—without feeling awkward, overly polished, or like you're bragging.

💡 In this session, you'll learn:

✅ Why good work often gets overlooked when we assume others will automatically notice it

✅ How to communicate your strengths, accomplishments, and goals in a way that feels natural and authentic

✅ How to connect the dots between what you do best and the opportunities you'd like to attract

If you've ever struggled to talk about your work, promote yourself, or help others understand how they can support you, this session is for you.

Five Voices, One Mission: Helping Women Stop Surviving & Start Living

Sometimes what we need most isn’t another productivity hack or “push through it” pep talk.

Sometimes we need honest conversations, supportive spaces, and the reminder that we’re not the only ones navigating the beautiful, messy, overwhelming realities of womanhood, motherhood, business, burnout, identity, and growth.

After hosting a sold-out Vision Board Night earlier this year, five Phoenix-area women’s coaches are coming back together for a deeper conversation designed to support women in every season of life and leadership.

Each coach brings a unique lens—but together, they share one mission: helping women stop surviving their lives and start actually living them.

Meet the Coaches:
Ana Cortes-Holbert — GreenLight Coaching & Development
Life Coach for high-achieving women ready to quiet their inner critic and stop getting in their own way.

Anna Chrzanowski — Intentionally Her Coaching
Life Coach for Type B and ADHD moms who want sustainable productivity without rigid systems or constant guilt.

Christina Giedraitis — Raise Your Standards Coaching and Consulting
Life Coach for working moms navigating the beautiful chaos of life while building something they truly love.

Tialyn John — Tialyn John Coaching
Business Coach helping women entrepreneurs build confidence and stop second-guessing themselves.

Angela Lahman — Soul Care Sanctuary
Spiritual Care Companion and Clarity Strategist helping midlife women move from soul-level exhaustion back to purpose.

This workshop is designed to feel grounding, validating, and deeply human—with conversations rooted in real life, not perfection.

In this session, you’ll walk away with:
✅ Honest language for what you’re actually navigating right now—and clarity on which type of support best fits your current season
✅ One grounded next step for your life or business that fits your real capacity—not someone else’s version of momentum
✅ A simple practice you can begin using immediately to reconnect with yourself on the days when everyone else needs you first

Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, burned out, disconnected, or simply craving deeper support, this session is an invitation to pause, breathe, and remember that you don’t have to figure everything out alone.

Leadership From the Inside Out: Four Practices Behind Sustainable Leadership

Growth in business is exciting—but it can also create hidden pressure behind the scenes.

As teams grow and responsibilities expand, many founders unknowingly become the center of every decision, conversation, and problem. Over time, that kind of leadership strain creates bottlenecks, burnout, and businesses that can’t truly scale without constant founder involvement.

Join the founder of House of Sibol, a leadership architecture studio helping founders and executives build sustainable systems and communication structures, for a practical and thought-provoking workshop on how to lead through growth without becoming the system yourself.

With more than 25 years of experience developing leaders inside complex organizations, she brings grounded, real-world frameworks that help leaders create clarity, consistency, and healthier ways of operating as their businesses evolve.

This session is designed for founders and leaders who want to grow intentionally—not just carry more.

💡 In this session, you’ll learn how to:
✅ Understand the four leadership practices that support sustainable growth. Learn how self-leadership, protecting time, clear communication, and systems work together to create scalable leadership.
✅ Reduce decision bottlenecks and leadership overload. Walk away with a simple framework to clarify ownership, decisions, and next steps so everything no longer depends on you.
✅ Design leadership structures that scale with your business. Discover how systems and clear expectations create stronger accountability, consistency, and independence across your team.

Through reflection, practical tools, and actionable frameworks, this workshop will help you lead with more intention, build healthier systems, and create growth that feels sustainable—not overwhelming.
