Join us for our next monthly meet up on Tuesday, April 21st, 7PM-9PM at Neighbors & Friends - 88 E Union St., Pasadena.

RSVP: https://evite.me/6f8PMFMQuU

Light bites and drinks will be served.

Each month, we’ll come together with fellow mama business owners to network, share ideas, and collaborate. Our training topics will change monthly to keep things fresh and valuable.

Join Melissa of Wild & Tame for a hands-on, sensory garden experience designed to reconnect us to the soil — and to each other.

This isn’t a lecture. It’s a living workshop.

Each guest will receive a terracotta pot and seasonal plant, and together we’ll gather around the table to plant, dig, and root while Melissa shares the story behind Wild & Tame — her Los Angeles-based gardening and landscape studio devoted to creating soulful, sustainable outdoor spaces.

As our hands move through the soil, we’ll explore:

How to design gardens that feel grounded and intuitive
Simple ways to bring life and beauty into your home office and business
Seasonal planting tips for Southern California
The deeper connection between tending plants and tending ourselves
There’s something powerful about learning with your hands in the dirt. Conversation flows differently. Creativity opens. Roots take hold.

Come prepared to plant, connect, and leave with something growing in your hands.

All materials provided. No gardening experience necessary.

MARCH MEET UP!

RSVP: https://evite.me/BH13MaFatB

Join us for our next monthly meet up on Tuesday, March 17th, 7PM-9PM at Neighbors & Friends - 88 E Union St., Pasadena.

Light bites and drinks will be served.

This month’s session will be led by Therese Edwards, Senior Lecturer.

The Matriarchy Model: A Community-centered Framework for Sustainable, Profitable Businesses

What if businesses weren’t built on extraction, burnout or endless growth... but on stability, reciprocity and long-term community care? In this conversation, we’ll pragmatically explore how matriarchy can inspire a community-centered framework for building businesses that are both financially strong and socially rooted. With matriarchy as our model, profit becomes sustainability, leadership transitions to stewardship and we can experience growth at community and personal levels. During our chat, we’ll examine shifts we can make right now that align revenue with values and collectively craft a path to build companies that are better designed to nurture ourselves, our families and the people we serve.

About our presenter:

Therese Edwards has served as a senior lecturer in the communication studies department at Loyola Marymount University for over two decades and has partnered with women-owned and community-centered small- and medium-sized businesses as a communications strategist since 2002.

Protect the Bag (and the People): Financial Basics for Women Building Something

If you’re the breadwinner, the planner, and the backup plan - this workshop is for you.

In this 50-minute interactive session, we’ll walk through the financial basics every woman building a business should understand: how to protect yourself, your people, and your livelihood when life doesn’t go as planned. No math, no judgment, and no sales pitch - just clear, practical guidance and space to reflect.

You’ll leave with a better understanding of your risks, your options, and your next best step.

Bring your business cards, product samples, or other promotional materials to showcase your brand!
