Description

Greetings SPARK Sessions People: This month I was led to collaborate with several inspiring leaders from my personal and professional circle *SPARK Sessions is a labor of love for Charlotte’s heart-centered entrepreneurial community.

SPARK Sessions is excited to announce our first “in person” meetup since the pandemic started. We’re also honored to provide our tribe with a collaborative gathering with two other meetup groups to "cross-pollinate" with people who are intentional about their personal and professional growth and who value spiritual principles like kindness, karma and meaningful manifestation through high vibrations. WHEN? Thursday, 6/17/21 from 6p-7:30p WHY? It’s time to reconnect in person with our tribe! SPARK Sessions was created from the vision to provide a heart-centered meetup group for entrepreneurs who value lifelong learning. We connect to learn new things, meet new people and collaborate on exciting new projects. Let’s embrace our creative side and build a better world that works for everyone. WHERE? The Pauline Tea-Bar Apothecary at 2326 Arty Avenue The Pauline Tea-Bar Apothecary is an herbal tea lounge that touches all of the senses with healing elements. From the warm inviting decor, the soothing aroma of the diffused essential oils, to the special complementary pastries - patrons are invited to unplug from the cares of the day, enjoy quiet respite or gather delightfully with others. ********************* EXPANDING on the THEME of INTENTIONALITY Here’s a little bit more about the location for our meetup on 6/17/21. We’ve traditionally met in restaurants and breweries (and yet for our first return to “in person” meetings - we wanted to be thoughtful in choosing a special place that emphasized health and wellness, community and the diversity and inclusion values that we embrace.) Therefore, we’ve selected to partner with a female owned and family-operated business called The Pauline Tea-Bar Apothecary, Sherry Waters is the inspiring woman behind the counter you’ll see in the photos below and the guiding vision for her business pursuits is “Nourishing from the inside out.” She’s a Stewardship Coach, Chaplain, Spiritual Director and TeaBar Operator (not to mention a dear friend and mentor!) We hope you’ll plan to have dinner with us on Thursday night as the sandwiches she sells (provided through her collaboration with Sweet Creations) benefit women in transitional housing. Please bring a chair of your own (just in case we run out of seating indoors and out) as we want to you feel comfortable and “right at home” in our circle. There are no strangers here - just friends you haven’t met yet!

Original Sparkmeister, Persistent Pyromaniac and organizer of the "Charlotte Spark Sessions - Authentic Business Networking" Meetup Group. Also the Fearless Founder and Chief Illuminator at TorchBearer Consulting (www.TorchItUp.com) and a proud single mom of two teenage daughters and two incredible rescue dogs. I enjoy anything that has to do with educating entrepreneurs about smarter sales and marketing strategies, so I often partner up with other individuals or organziations to further that cause.
