About the event:
Ready to create something amazing of your own? Join Victoria Whittaker for a powerful evening of real talk, business strategy, and authentic connection. This isn't your typical stuffy networking event - it's a gathering of brilliant women who are ready to turn their corporate success into service-based businesses they absolutely love.
As someone who left her own corporate career (with degrees from Stanford and Berkeley) to build a thriving consulting and coaching business, she gets it. That pull to create something meaningful, the desire for true freedom, and yes - all those sneaky thoughts that try to hold you back.
She'll be sharing the exact framework she uses with my high-ticket clients to:
- Reclaim your power after years in corporate (no more dimming your light!)
- Create premium offers from your unique gifts and expertise
- Build authentic confidence to make the leap
- Set yourself up for real financial success (because freedom requires funding!)
- Reconnect with your intuition so you can trust yourself on this journey
You'll walk away with:
- Crystal clarity on what's actually holding you back
- Strategic steps to build your business while still employed
- A premium offer framework that feels totally aligned (plus exclusive bonus materials for you!)
- Connection with incredible women who get you
- Permission to finally do what lights you up
Over mocktails and delicious bites, you'll connect with other powerful women who are done playing small and ready to build businesses that prioritize both impact and freedom.
Perfect for you if:
- You're a corporate achiever dreaming of building your own serviced-based thing
- You've already left corporate but want more clarity and strategy
- You're tired of waiting for "someday" to start your business
- You know you're meant for more than the corporate path
Limited to 30 visionary women to keep it intimate and real.
Ready to turn that dream business into reality? Let's do this!
We'll be reaching out, confirming as we get closer. Once we reach 30 people, we'll move to a waitlist.
