    The women who change your business
    aren't online.
    PROXIMITY WITH PURPOSE

    Your next client could begin with a conversation.

    So could your next referral partner. Your next collaborator.

    The woman who introduces you to someone you never would have met on your own.

    You don't need to meet more people.

    You need the right people to know who you are, what you do, and when to say your name when someone asks, "Do you know someone who…?"

    Fort Lauderdale
    August 19 · 4–6 PM
    25 Women · Intentionally Curated

    Application required. Every woman in the room is intentionally selected — so the conversations are worth having.

    What could one right relationship
    be worth to your business?

    01

    Maybe it's the woman who becomes your next referral partner.

    02

    The woman who introduces you to your next client.

    03

    The woman whose audience needs exactly what you do.

    04

    The woman you collaborate with six months from now.

    05

    Or the woman who hears someone say, "I'm looking for..." and immediately thinks of you.

    That's the power of being known by the right people.

    Proximity with Purpose was created to put you in the room where those relationships can begin.

    You've met enough people
    you never talked to again.

    You exchanged Instagram handles.

    Added each other on LinkedIn.

    Promised to grab coffee.

    Then life got busy.

    Three months later, neither of you remembers exactly what the other does.

    Women connecting at a Proximity with Purpose event

    That's not what you need more of.

    You need women who remember your name when an opportunity comes up.

    Women who understand what you do well enough to refer you.

    Women you can call when you need an introduction, an answer, a recommendation, or another perspective.

    That's a very different kind of relationship.

    And it requires more than five rushed minutes in a crowded room.

    We don't leave the room
    to chance.

    Every woman applies before attending.

    Not because we're trying to make this difficult to get into.

    Because who is in the room matters.

    01

    What you do

    02

    Where you're growing

    03

    What kinds of relationships you're looking for

    04

    Who would be valuable for you to know

    Then we create an experience where you have time to actually talk.

    Not perform. Not pitch your way around the room. Not race through as many introductions as possible.

    Talk. Listen. Learn who someone is. Let her learn who you are — well enough that she becomes the woman who remembers your name when a client asks, "Do you know someone who…?"

    Because one thoughtful introduction can be worth far more than twenty random ones.

    What can start with
    one conversation?

    In their own words. Real names, real outcomes, real connections.

    Ramona

    Secured her first event sponsor at the event

    Laura

    Landed an ongoing performance residency

    "I drove four hours to be here. I left with my first event sponsor and a room full of women who actually get what I'm building. I'd drive eight."

    Ramona

    "I walked in not knowing a single person. I'm now performing regularly at another attendee's restaurant. I came for the experience and found a whole new chapter of my business."

    Laura

    They didn't walk into the room knowing exactly what would happen.

    They showed up.

    They had conversations.

    They built relationships.

    And something came from them.

    That's the opportunity proximity creates.

    Women connecting at the event

    Picture the
    week after.

    You're sitting at your desk and your phone lights up.

    "I was thinking about our conversation. There's someone I want you to meet."

    Or you're the one sending the message.

    You schedule coffee with the woman you sat beside.

    Someone remembers exactly who your ideal client is — and texts you the next time she hears "I'm looking for…"

    A conversation from August 19 continues into September.

    Then October.

    That's what I care about creating.

    Not a room that feels exciting for two hours.

    Relationships that still matter after everyone goes home.

    Christine Ierardi

    I've spent years watching what happens when the right women get in the same room.

    After bringing more than 1,000 women together through Women in Business HQ, I've watched strangers become referral partners, collaborators, clients, vendors, and the woman who knows someone you should meet.

    And I've learned something.

    The strongest relationships rarely begin with the perfect pitch. They begin with a real conversation.

    That's why I'm so intentional about who comes into these experiences and how we spend our time together.

    I don't want you leaving knowing what 25 women do. I want the right women leaving as the people who text you when a client asks, "Do you know someone who…?"

    — Christine

    Your journey begins
    the moment you say yes.

    Proximity with Purpose isn't just an afternoon on your calendar.

    It's the beginning of something much bigger.

    Every relationship has a starting point.

    This is yours.

    Chapter One

    Before the Room

    The experience begins long before August 19.

    As soon as you reserve your seat, you'll receive access to our private Telegram community, where you'll begin introducing yourself, meeting the other women, and starting conversations before you ever walk through the door.

    By the time you arrive, you'll recognize familiar names, familiar faces, and maybe even a few women you've already been chatting with.

    You won't be walking into a room full of strangers.

    You'll be walking into a room where relationships have already started.

    Chapter Two

    In the Room

    On August 19, twenty-five women will gather at Ukiah in Fort Lauderdale for an afternoon designed with one purpose in mind—to make it easy to leave knowing who you're texting next week for coffee.

    Every introduction is intentional.

    Every conversation has room to grow.

    There are no awkward networking circles or rushed elevator pitches.

    Just genuine conversations with women who understand what you're building because they're building something, too.

    Sometimes, all it takes is one conversation to change the direction of your business.

    Chapter Three

    The Conversation Continues

    The event may end, but the relationships don't.

    One week later, we'll gather again for our virtual After Party—a chance to reconnect, celebrate new friendships, share wins, and continue the conversations that began in the room.

    Because the best relationships aren't built in a single afternoon.

    They're built over time.

    And every great relationship starts with simply saying yes.

    What your $155 seat gives you.

    An intentionally curated room

    25 women selected with intention, so the value comes from who you're meeting — not how many people we can fit into a venue.

    Time for real conversation

    The experience is designed so you can learn who someone is, what she's building, and whether she's a potential referral partner, collaborator, client, vendor, or the woman who knows someone you should meet.

    Thoughtful introductions

    We pay attention to what women are looking for so the right introductions have a better chance of happening — so you leave as the woman someone thinks of when a client asks, "Do you know someone who…?"

    Connection before + after

    You'll have a way to begin getting familiar with the women attending and continue conversations after August 19 — so you leave knowing who you're texting next week for coffee.

    The better question is:

    What would one right relationship be worth?

    One client.

    One referral partner.

    One introduction.

    One collaboration.

    One person who remembers your name when the right conversation happens.

    You're not buying two hours on August 19.

    You're giving yourself the opportunity to meet women who could still be part of your business years from now.

    The Ultimate Proximity

    Secret Society

    Some women aren't ready to leave when the night ends.

    Ten of them will stay — for a private mastermind dinner at Ukiah, where every woman at the table answers, and every answer goes somewhere real.

    This is where business talk turns into the truth about what's actually holding you back, and who's sitting next to you when it does.

    Ten seats. One table.

    Intimate Dinner Setting
    Connections being made
    Luxury experience

    Everything you need
    to know.

    Coming alone?

    Good.

    You won't be the only one.

    Many women walk into these experiences without knowing anyone in the room.

    You don't need to bring someone with you.

    You don't need to be the loudest woman there.

    And you don't need to figure out who to talk to by yourself.

    Show up ready to have a conversation.

    We'll take it from there.

    25 women.
    Two hours.
    How many relationships could begin?

    On August 19, twenty-five women will walk into a room in Fort Lauderdale carrying businesses, ideas, relationships, resources, experiences, and opportunities the other women haven't heard about yet.

    Someone in that room may need exactly what you do.

    Someone may know exactly who you need to meet.

    And someone may simply become one of those people you're incredibly grateful you decided to sit beside.

    You can't build the relationship if you never enter the room.
