Something is happening at NAWBO Charlotte 🔥
Earlier this week, we kicked off our Signature Meeting season—and broke an attendance record we haven’t touched in years.
Every. Single. Seat. Was. Full. 🤩😱
But what excited me most wasn’t the number of women in the room. It was WHO was there.
Women who hadn’t attended in years came back ready to reconnect. Guests came to see what NAWBO was all about—and one joined on the spot, another the next morning, and four more booked calls with our Membership Team.
Businesses approached us about becoming corporate partners.
And my phone has been blowing up ever since with messages about the energy in that room. 🔥⚡️🚀
Our Immediate Past President, Nicole Grace and I stood outside greeting women as they arrived, cheering, “WELCOME BACK!”
Because THAT is what I want NAWBO Charlotte to feel like.
A place where women business owners belong.
Where relationships are built.
Where women grow, lead and create opportunities for one another. And where our collective impact becomes impossible to ignore.
Melissa Taylor from Network Build Grow challenged us to move beyond “know, like and trust” and think instead about:
Awareness. Respect. Belief.
And I couldn’t help thinking—that’s exactly what we’re building here.
Something women want to be part of.
And Tuesday night, you could FEEL it.
Next up: our first-ever Fall Retreat, “Permission Granted,” on September 19. Then in October, we turn our attention to advocacy and making sure women business owners have a voice.
To those who came back: WELCOME BACK. We missed you.
And to those just discovering NAWBO Charlotte…
Come see what’s happening. There’s a seat at the table for you. ❤️
