Tired of stuffy networking events where you exchange business cards and forget names five minutes later?
In this bonus episode of Never Stop Dreaming Biggie, host Angel Holmes takes you behind the scenes of a women’s networking event that actually worked—and here’s why.
Why Traditional Networking Events Fail Women Entrepreneurs
Most business networking events for women follow the same tired formula: awkward introductions, forced small talk, and zero authentic connection. But what if networking could feel more like a celebration than a chore?
The Secret to Authentic Community Building
Recorded live from Starlight Motor Inn in Park Circle, Charleston, this episode captures the real magic that happens when female entrepreneurs gather in a space designed for genuine connection. From line dancing to prayer circles with a live band, Angel and her guests prove that authentic networking for women happens when you:
Remove the “stuffy” professional barriers
Create movement and celebration
Welcome strangers like friends
Build relationships before business deals
Featured: Real Women, Real Dreams, Real Community
Meet the women making it happen:
