Sip & Connect

An Intentional Gathering for Business Owners Who Want Connection Over Networking

You don't need more contacts. You need more connection.

If you've been in business long enough to know that your next best opportunity is probably already in your network, this event was designed for you.

Sip & Connect is a curated evening for established business owners who want to be in a room with people who get it. People who lead with generosity. People who are building something real and want to be around others doing the same.

No forced conversations. No awkward small talk about what you do.

Just good wine, good people, and an intentional format that makes showing up for each other feel easy.

What to Expect

The Giving Wall When you arrive, you'll add two things to our Giving Wall: one thing you need (a resource, an introduction, a recommendation) and one thing you can offer (your expertise, your network, your experience). The energy in the room shifts when everyone comes ready to give first. You'll watch it happen in real time.

The Ecosystem Card You'll leave with something better than a business card. The Ecosystem Card is a simple tool that captures how you show up in your professional world — your superpower, what you're building, and the best way someone can send people your way. It's a conversation starter and a follow-up tool in one. (More on that after the event — watch your inbox.)

The Wine We're at Wine House on Main, a beloved wine bar in Kennebunk. Betsy has incredible selections, an outdoor patio (weather permitting), and a setting that does the work of making everyone feel instantly comfortable.

This Event Is For You If...

— You're a business owner who's built something worth talking about

— You want to be in community with people who are as intentional as you are

The Evening Doesn't End When the Wine Does

Everyone leaves Sip & Connect with an Ecosystem Card — yours and a few others you actually want to stay connected to. But the real magic happens in the 48 hours that follow.

After the event, you'll receive a follow-up email with a simple framework for what to do with the connections you made — based on the Designing Your Ecosystem methodology. Not a generic "follow up within 24 hours" tip. An actual tool for how to activate what you built in that room: who to reach out to, what to say, and how to show up as a resource first.

Because the best networkers aren't the ones who collect the most cards. They're the ones who know what to do next.
