Heels Hive After 5

Thank you to all the women who joined us last week for our Chicago Chapter Happy Hour at STK. If you are looking for private event space for your organization for a cocktail reception or holiday party, I highly recommend booking STK. The menu alone sells itself, but I am big on customer service and their staff knocked it out of the park with our group.

If this was your first time attending Heels & Handshakes, we are a membership for Women in Business and recently launched a Chicago Chapter. Our debut was in August and you can read the recap here. The mission of Heels is to serve Women in Business and Entrepreneurs by hosting in-person meetings to foster genuine connections, provide resources, and referrals, and empower women to share their wins. We call this “STRUTS” which stands for Share, Teach, Recognize, Uplift, and Toot your own horn.

The women who joined us last week left feeling empowered, made new friends, and left with some referrals.

I would love to give a shoutout to our photographer of the evening, Joanna and Brett. They were amazing to work with, provided a fast turnaround of the photos, and encouraged the women who made a new friendship from this event to take a photo together at the end of the night.
