Good morning fellow movers and shakers! International Women’s Day is right around the corner, and each year we are thrilled to honor and celebrate women around the world —especially those within our local communities.
​

Last year, Sip and Ship created a campaign highlighting female entrepreneurs and business owners who are shifting the culture of working women and the impact we have with other women, our families and our businesses in building greater opportunities for ourselves and others while creating a better world. This year, while Sip and Ship
continues to serve as their business headquarters with our private mailbox services, we aim to broaden awareness and support women entrepreneurs and locally owned businesses with in-person sessions called Coffee and Conversation.

Every quarter, 50 women in business are invited to gather for what has become a testament to building stronger connections, business collaborations and more creative decision making within our respective industries—with great intention in doing so together.

Our next Coffee and Conversation event will be on Thursday, March 21st at the Greenwood Sip and Ship. Hosted by Diana Naramore, Owner of Sip and Ship in partnership with by La’Kita Williams, Founder of Co-Create Work, and with special guest Jadah Sellner, Best Selling Author of SheBuilds, Keynote and TedX Speaker, business mentor, poet and podcaster. Jadah’s anti-hustle philosophy by building businesses with L.O.V.E. will keep you on the edge of your seat. Speaking of, seats are limited so reserve yours today!

In honor of International Women’s Day, we hope you will join us in finding ways to cultivate inclusion, kindness and engagement by actively supporting women within your communities —cheering her on as she creates, builds and lives the life of her dreams!

One way to do that is by sharing this email with her —to become a part of an abundant and resourceful community of women dedicated to fostering meaningful relationships, integrating better work-life practices and making positive impacts with the lives she touches. Tickets are available here but won’t last long!

Timing may not line up this round, but don’t sweat it. Carve out time on your own schedule to connect and celebrate with a woman who you’re curious about or inspired by. Invite her to join you for coffee or chai latte at our dine-in Sip and Ship cafes. Either way, we look forward to seeing and supporting you in all ways imaginable!
