Connect & Shine is a different kind of networking event - it's a feel-good networking experience for women where we:

⭐ Connect without any pressure to "say the right thing"
⭐ Share our challenges
⭐ Learn from each other
⭐ Celebrate our journeys and ourselves
⭐ Have a good time!

At My Creative Break, we intentionally design spaces where conversations unfold with ease, especially for introverts and for those who don’t feel at home at traditional networking events where you're just thrown in a room full of people.

On the agenda:
✅ Small group activities
✅ 1:1 speed networking
✅ Mini workshop and presentation from a fellow woman entrepreneur
✅ Lots of laughs!

Surround yourself with people who get you!

Tired of networking that feels like small talk, surface-level conversations, and no real follow-up?

Curated Connections is different.

This is not about meeting more people.
It’s about meeting the right people.

You’ll be guided through intentional conversations designed to create real alignment and remove the awkwardness of traditional networking.

No pressure. No pitching. No wasted energy.

Just real conversations that actually lead somewhere.

✨ Leave with at least one meaningful connection or a potential collaboration

Spots are intentionally limited to keep the experience personal.
