GO Connect: I'm Not My Business Card!
Networking is often seen as a song and dance routine, marking off checklists, and at times a forced social pressure. Often it can feel more like a task to find the right people at the right time. The moment you’re able to come up for air – growth opportunities look more like survival mode, and you find yourself drowning in a sea of business cards, wondering “where do I start?” Sound familiar?
We’ve created an authentic space for connecting, exchanging real value and simply a place where the best part of you gets to shine. Join us for Go Connect Networking REImagined….
The event is free but pre-registration is required due to limited space. Light refreshments will be served, and we will provide parking validation for the Market Street Parking Garage.

CreativeMornings Charlottesville: Wonder
Our sense of wonder is the code for tapping into our most creative selves. It enables us to expand our horizons and encounter parallel universes that haven’t been explored yet. According to the classical Greek philosopher Socrates, “Wonder is the beginning of wisdom.” By drawing us out of our typical patterns, wonderment reconnects us with our ability to marvel at new and beautiful things.
We all have the capacity for wonder; but why do we lose sight of it?
As our lives get busier, we tend to streamline our schedules and relationships to become more efficient. We want to know what will happen and when it will happen. But extraordinary things occur if we make room for the unexpected.
When we leave space in our plans, we create magical conditions for our imagination and thoughts to collide with one another. And it is from these sparks that our best ideas are born.
