Thank you all for joining us last month as we got PUNK with Ruzanna Rozman! We got creative with our name tags, challenged the status quo, and learned about fostering our own path. Which truly is the most punk thing you can do!

See you in August.

Thank you to everyone who came out for our March event with @chrislarue21 from @cincyhive! Chris talked about the importance of honoring both our inner lives and our outer lives in the choices we make. He also spoke on how introspection and calmness can ignite our creativity and call us to action.

What are the practices you use to stay grounded? Meditation? Yoga? Morning pages? Let us know!

Cincinnati CreativeMornings / StartUp Cincy Week

To celebrate October's theme of VISION, we chatted with not one but THREE local visionaries (see what we did there 😉): Sharod Holmes, founder & CEO of Holm Site; Kara Willis, a marketing & events specialist with a background in the startup and non-profit spaces; and DJ Wavy Moe, one of the premier entertainers in the Tri-State area.

Our panel discussion kicked off the final day of StartUpCincy Week and we were so excited to partner with Union Hall and StartUp Cincy for this great conversation.

We had a fantastic event in July at Union Hall with a local leader and wave-maker, Missy Spears! Missy spoke on our theme of TRUTH and shared her experience of being a disrupter and the massive power of community. We also had fantastic music to kick off our morning from Caileen Tallant! Make sure to sign up for event emails so you don't miss out on future events. 🎉
