We had such a wonderful evening at Heist Brewery & Barrel Arts earlier this month connecting and supporting absolutely AMAZING women in our community!! Our featured Speaker was Nicole C. Ayers and our featured charity was The Eva Lee Parker Fund led by Melody Gross, both whom gave the best talks to our guests and vendors! Please see below all of the small women-owned businesses that were featured at this event and reach out to them personally to learn more about their businesses! 🙂
Nicole C. Ayers
Self-love sage and author Nicole C. Ayers is a dynamic and engaging speaker who’s not afraid to get vulnerable and real about her personal journey to love herself. She’s a strong voice for female empowerment and the freedom it brings. Audiences will feel like they’ve gotten a warm hug and shared a private laugh with a close friend, but most importantly, they’ll leave with transformative tools to get to know themselves.
