Importance of authenticity & building a community through live events.

Today I had the extreme pleasure of chatting with my good friend, Cathy Olson, of Funnel Gorgeous. Join me as we follow her journey from a design business start-up to co-founding a multi-million dollar company.

We discuss the importance of authenticity and building a community of like-minded individuals, and our experiences hosting retreats and conferences.

Cathy shares the details of the recent Funnel Gorgeous Retreat, a small, intimate event that focuses on deep connections and valuable content. We also touch on the logistics and challenges of organizing events, including shipping swag and managing attendee expectations. Cathy emphasizes the importance of adapting to unexpected changes and finding creative solutions.

Highlights:

• Authenticity is key in building a community of like-minded individuals.

• Hosting retreats and conferences can create deep connections and valuable content.

• Logistics, such as shipping swag and managing attendee expectations, can be challenging but important to consider.

• Creating a balance between work and play during events can enhance the attendee experience.

• Embrace unexpected changes and find creative solutions to make the best of challenging situations.

• Join supportive communities to connect with like-minded individuals and receive valuable advice and assistance.

Amber Housley helps women grow thriving businesses and joy-filled lives through strategic coaching and impactful retreat experiences. Dabbling in entrepreneurship since the age of 4, she started her first real business in 2007, working in the fringe hours around a full-time job as a marketing executive. The corporate world wasn’t for her, so she took the entrepreneurial leap and has since built several six- and seven-figure businesses using her signature method for creating a thriving business & joy-filled life.

Combining experiences as a corporate marketing strategist and decades of event planning, she now shares her knowledge with women entrepreneurs through courses, coaching programs, and transformational retreats; teaching them how to build impactful businesses while maintaining a sense of joy and fulfillment.
