"Nice weather we're having…" "So... busy lately?" "How about that traffic?"

You didn't build a business to talk about the weather.

You know that real opportunities come from real conversations—the kind that go deeper than surface-level pleasantries. But moving past small talk feels awkward. Vulnerable. Like you're asking for too much too soon.

So you stay safe. You keep it light. And you leave networking events with a stack of business cards and zero meaningful connections.

This workshop is about having conversations that actually matter.

Join Strategic Growth Advisor Katie Zoe Brunelle and Intuitive Emotional Healer Cary Ouellette for a Systems & Soul workshop on intentional networking conversations—the strategic questions that open doors and the inner confidence required to share yourself authentically.

In this workshop, you'll:

→ Practice moving beyond small talk in real time with guided conversations designed to build genuine connection

→ Learn Katie's framework for asking questions that create meaningful dialogue—without feeling intrusive or forced

→ Discover how to share about yourself in ways that invite collaboration rather than just polite nods

→ Release the fear of being "too much," rejection, and the belief that deeper connection isn't safe

→ Leave with conversation tools you can use immediately and the confidence to actually use them

The Details:

📅 Date: Friday, March 13th

⏰ Time: 9:00 AM – 11:00 AM

📍 Location: Peace Within Studio, Topsham, Maine (address provided upon registration)

💰 Investment: $27 single workshop

Workshop Flow:

9:00 – 9:30 AM | Guided Connection

Arrive and connect with the women in the room through intentional conversation—and practice introducing yourself in a low-stakes, supportive environment. Be ready to promptly begin the workshop portion at 9:30.

9:30 – 10:15 AM | Circle + Strategy Session

After brief check-ins, we'll explore the art and strategy of meaningful networking conversations. You'll learn specific questions that invite depth, how to share vulnerably without oversharing, and why small talk keeps us stuck.

10:00 – 10:30 AM | Group Energetic Clearing Cary will guide the group through releasing the fears that keep us surface-level—fear of judgment, rejection, being too much, and the deep-seated belief that we don't belong.

This workshop is for you if:

✓ You leave networking events feeling like you didn't make any real connections

✓ You struggle to move conversations past the surface

✓ You hold back from sharing about yourself because it feels uncomfortable

✓ You know relationships are the key to growth but don't know how to build them intentionally

✓ You're ready for conversations that lead somewhere

Ready to stop talking about the weather and start building relationships that matter?

You know you should be creating content. But between overthinking it, overcomplicating it, and putting it off… nothing gets posted.

This is different.

No lecture. No slides. Just action.

Join us for a relaxed, co-working-style meetup where you'll actually make the content you've been avoiding. Emma from Two Three Social will provide prompts and guidance. Katie will hold the space and set the networking scene. You'll help each other out, stay focused, and walk away with real content you can use.

What You'll Get:

• A clear 2-hour window to just create

• Expert guidance and content prompts from Emma

• A supportive group doing the same thing

• Permission to keep it simple

• Your first coffee drink included

Details

When: Thursday, February 26 | 9–11 AM
Where: Cafe Luna, 370 US-1, Scarborough
Cost: $22 (includes your first coffee drink)
Hosted by: The Atrium + Two Three Social (Emma Janeczko)

Stop overthinking. Start creating. See you there.

"So, what do you do?"

Six words that make most entrepreneurs freeze, fumble, or launch into a rehearsed elevator pitch that feels nothing like them.

You know you're good at what you do. You've built something real. But when it's time to introduce yourself—at a networking event, a coffee meeting, in a room full of strangers—something shifts. You shrink. You over-explain. You undersell.

This workshop is about finally owning who you are when you show up.

Join Strategic Growth Advisor Katie Zoe Brunelle and Intuitive Emotional Healer Cary Ouellette for a Systems & Soul workshop that addresses the art of authentic introductions from both angles: the strategic frameworks that help you articulate your value clearly and the energetic work required to actually believe it when you say it.

In this workshop, you'll:

→ Connect with fellow women entrepreneurs through guided conversation that puts your new introduction skills into practice immediately

→ Learn why your current introduction isn't landing—and what's actually happening when you minimize yourself

→ Craft an authentic introduction that communicates your value without feeling scripted or salesy

→ Release the deep-rooted beliefs about visibility, worth, and belonging that keep you playing small

→ Leave with language that feels like you and the grounded confidence to use it

9:15 – 10:00 AM | Circle + Strategy Session

We'll open with brief check-ins, then dive into crafting introductions that are clear, compelling, and authentically yours. You'll learn Katie's framework for articulating what you do in a way that invites connection rather than confusion.

10:00 – 10:30 AM | Group Energetic Clearing Cary will guide the group through a powerful session releasing the patterns of self-doubt, imposter syndrome, and unworthiness that make owning your expertise feel impossible.

This workshop is for you if:

✓ You dread the "what do you do?" question

✓ Your introduction changes every time because nothing feels quite right

✓ You tend to downplay your accomplishments or over-explain your work

✓ You know your worth intellectually but struggle to embody it in conversation

✓ You're ready to show up as yourself—fully—in professional spaces

Ready to introduce yourself like you actually believe in what you do?

Trade forced conversations for real connections

If you've ever stood in the corner at a networking event wondering who to talk to or what to say, this event is for you.

If you’ve ever gone to a networking event and wanted to get a little more out of it, this event is for you.

If you just want an excuse to meet other growth-minded business owners, this event is for you!

Sip & Connect brings The Atrium's relationship-first philosophy to life in a relaxed, guided experience that actually makes networking... enjoyable. No awkward hovering by the cheese table. No collecting business cards you'll never follow up on. Just genuine conversations with fellow business owners who get it.

What to expect:

This is an open house-style event. Feel free to arrive at any time. We'll help you integrate into the group activities and conversations.

Start the evening with a complimentary glass of wine (or your beverage of choice - we've got non-alcoholic options too) in the warm, welcoming atmosphere of Wine House on Main.

Guided connections 

We provide the conversation starters and intentional prompts that lead to actual relationship-building, not surface-level chitchat about the weather.

Leave with a plan, not just business cards

This workshop explores the real reason your goals keep slipping through your fingers—and what to do about it.

Join Strategic Growth Advisor Katie Zoe Brunelle and Intuitive Emotional Healer Cary Ouellette for the inaugural Systems & Soul workshop, where we'll address goal-setting from both angles: the strategic systems that create sustainable progress and the energetic blocks that sabotage even our best intentions.

In this workshop, you'll:

→ Connect with fellow women entrepreneurs through guided conversation designed to build real relationships (not just exchange business cards)

→ Uncover the hidden patterns keeping you stuck in cycles of setting goals and falling short

→ Learn a strategic approach to goal-setting that accounts for how you actually work—not how you think you should

→ Release the limiting beliefs and emotional resistance blocking your follow-through with guided energetic clearing

→ Leave with both a clear intention for the month ahead and the aligned energy to make it happen

Traditional elevator pitches are essentially verbal business cards—forgettable, transactional, and designed to impress rather than connect. They create pressure to sound perfect instead of authentic, and they're monologues that leave the other person searching for an escape route.

I can show you how to introduce yourself in a way that sparks conversation in 5 steps—using the SPARK Framework, which transforms networking from anxiety-inducing small talk into genuine connection.

Date: Wednesday, January 21, 2026

Time: 11:30 am - 12:15 pm

Location: Live Zoom meeting

You'll leave this masterclass with:

• an understanding of the SPARK method to introduce yourself in professional settings

The Experience

Join The Atrium and Angela Smith for an intimate evening of creativity, reflection, and intentional vision-setting. This isn't your typical vision board workshop—Joy Storyboarding is a soulful practice that begins with presence, honors what already brings you joy, and gently guides you toward the future you're growing into. In the warm setting of Angela's home, you'll gather with like-minded individuals to create a visual expression of your story in motion through images, words, color, and intuition.

What to Expect

• Grounding opening with music and soulful readings

• Guided Joy Storyboarding process - part reflection, part vision, part creative ritual

• All materials provided - magazines, scissors, boards, prompts, and inspiration

• Intimate home setting for authentic connection and creativity

• Chocolate and good vibes to fuel your creative process

• Rooted & Rising philosophy - a practice of both grounding and expansion

What Is Joy Storyboarding?

Joy Storyboarding™ is Angela Smith's joyful reimagining of the traditional vision board. Unlike conventional vision boards that focus solely on future goals, this practice roots you in the present moment—honoring what already brings you joy while listening for what's quietly calling you next. Through this creative ritual, you'll craft a one-of-a-kind board that tells your story in motion: where you are, what matters, and what's next.

It’s about getting grounded in joy — right here, right now — and creating from a place of abundance. It’s planting seeds for the life you imagine and trusting that when you show up with intention, life rises to meet you. Inevitably, you rise. Each board tells a story — your story — in motion. No rules, no pressure. Just a beautiful way to honor where you are, name what matters, and say yes to what’s next.

About Angela

Angela Smith is a brand strategist, story architect, and communications consultant who helps organizations uncover who they are and tell human-centered stories that move people. Her purpose in work and life is simple: Celebrate Humanity. Spread Joy. Bring stories to life. Through Joy Storyboarding and other creative work where story and soul meet, she helps people find magic in the ordinary, honor where they are, rise into who they can be, and stir wonder and awe.

About The Ghostwriter

June, 1975.

The Taylor family shatters in a single night when two teenage siblings are found dead in their own home. The only surviving sibling, Vincent, never shakes the whispers and accusations that he was the one who killed them. Decades later, the legend only grows as his career as a horror writer skyrockets.

Ghostwriter Olivia Dumont has spent her entire professional life hiding the fact that she is the only child of Vincent Taylor. Now on the brink of financial ruin, she's offered a job to ghostwrite her father's last book. What she doesn't know, though, is that this project is another one of his lies. Because it's not another horror novel he wants her to write.

After fifty years of silence, Vincent Taylor is finally ready to talk about what really happened that night in 1975.(GoodReads)

You want a wardrobe that whispers, “You’re ready to be seen.”
Your chart has the codes for how.

This is the image you present to the world. When you’re tapped into this, you radiate when you walk into a room. It’s the look and vibe that aligns with the leader, artist, creator, and human you truly are inside.

This workshop is not about what’s trendy; it’s about your truth. It’s not about having the “right” look, it’s about having a real look. You’ll leave with a cosmic style guide, your own visual vibeboard, and the tools to evolve your presence online or off—with intention, feeling your true beauty, and in full alignment.

Join me for Styled by the Stars — a 1-hour workshop where we’ll decode your birth chart to build your signature style, aligned brand presence, and visual vibe.

You’ll walk away with:
💫 Your cosmic style archetype
🎨 Your signature color/texture palette
👗 A brand-aligned look that feels like you

Katie on using Star Path as a stylist:

“I turned to Star Path as a stylist and branding specialist when I realized my business was taking off faster than I'd expected and I still needed to catch up to the me I was becoming. I was hosting live events, presenting at other people's events, and was accepted to speak at a conference in Nashville. I wanted to look in the mirror and see the person doing all of these amazing things instead of the woman who had mostly been working from home in her pajamas before dashing off to a kid's sports game. I wanted to exude authenticity and capture attention. I knew if I were being styled for who I am innately (astrologically) then I would just be tapping into my truest self instead of seeing someone online and trying to be them. The moment I read the words generated by the prompts I fed Star Path, I had never felt more seen. Not only did I use this information to shop, I also gave the brand identity guide to the team working on all of my messaging, like email, social media, and websites. Having the words and visuals for me has allowed me to become and share the real me.”

Creating Connection on Social Media (By Leading with Value)

Permission to Stop Chasing the Algorithm and Start Building Real Connections

This workshop is for business owners, founders, and creative entrepreneurs who know the power of social media, but aren’t seeing real results for their business. Instead of pushing for virality, we’ll teach you how to consistently show up with content that builds trust, sparks loyalty, and creates an emotional connection with the right audience.

In this workshop, you'll learn:

• Why emotional connection is the key to long-term brand growth (and how to create it)

• The four reasons people actually go on social media — and how to meet them where they are

• How to define and truly understand your target audience

• What it really means to provide “value” in your content (without sounding like everyone else)

• The difference between performance marketing and brand building — and why both matter

PLUS, we’ll even have time for you to plan out some of your July content!

This workshop is for you if:

• You’re ready to stop shouting into the void and start speaking directly to the people who matter

• You’ve been stuck on what to post, and/or worse, posting with no results

• You believe in connection over clout

• You want an approach to social media that actually feels like you

What to expect:

✔️ Interactive, engaging teaching
✔️ Breakout exercises and worksheets to make real progress in the room
✔️ Actionable strategies that work even if you hate social media
✔️ A community of values-driven business owners like you
