Thank You for an Incredible November POWERhour!
We had such a fantastic time at our November POWERhour! Luncheon on Nov 12, 2025 at Paesanos – Lincoln Heights.
A huge THANK YOU to our inspiring speaker, Anamaria Suescun-Fast, CEO of talkStrategy, for sharing her wisdom and sparking meaningful discussion. “The Harmony of the Hustle” reminded us that growth isn’t just about scaling, it’s about rebalancing, recalibrating, and sometimes rethinking everything. Most of all, it’s about being thankful for the journey and grateful for the people who grow with you.
We loved meeting new faces and reconnecting with familiar ones. Your energy made the room come alive!
