Elevate Her Network, Morning Coffee Break- Edina Chapter

Leadership in Bloom: Leading with Grace & Grit

Spring is a season of growth.
Not just in business.
In leadership.

And for women building businesses, leading teams, navigating change, and carrying big vision—it takes more than strategy to lead well.

It takes grace under pressure.
It takes grit through uncertainty.
It takes the kind of leadership that is both grounded and powerful.

That’s what this Coffee Break is all about.

Join Elevate Her Network for a meaningful morning of connection, conversation, and real leadership insight at our next monthly Coffee Break:

This month’s focus is on developing feminine leadership—the kind that blends empathy, resilience, and decisiveness in a way that moves people and businesses forward.

This is for the woman who is:

• Leading through growth
• Making hard decisions behind the scenes
• Carrying responsibility with courage
• Ready to connect with other women who truly understand the weight of leadership

At this Coffee Break, we’ll have an intentional conversation around what it really means to lead as a woman in today’s business world.

Together, we’ll explore:

• How to lead with empathy without losing authority
• How resilience is built in real time, not in perfect conditions
• How to make confident decisions even when the path isn’t fully clear
• How feminine leadership can be both soft and strong

This month’s guided activity is our Leadership Circle, where each woman will share one time she led through uncertainty.

Not polished.
Not theoretical.
Real.

Because some of the most powerful leadership lessons are learned in the middle of the storm.

This is not a lecture.
This is not surface-level networking.
And this is definitely not theory.

This is a curated small-group experience for women who want deeper conversation, stronger connection, and leadership growth rooted in real life.

At our Coffee Breaks, you won’t get lost in a crowded room. You’ll be part of an intentional gathering where women can speak honestly, reflect meaningfully, and build relationships that go beyond business cards.

This conversation is about lived leadership through real-life business storms.

If you’ve been craving a room where women talk about what leadership actually looks like behind the scenes—this is that room.

Our April Coffee Break is designed for:

• Women business owners
• Founders and entrepreneurs
• Executives and team leaders
• Women navigating growth, change, or transition
• High-achieving women who want more meaningful connection

If you’re ready to grow as a leader while connecting with women who are doing the same, we would love to have you join us.

• Intentional networking in a small-group setting
• A curated monthly leadership theme
• Guided conversation and reflection
• Real stories, real wisdom, real connection
• A welcoming space for growth and collaboration

Leadership doesn’t always look loud.
Sometimes it looks like staying steady in uncertainty.
Sometimes it looks like making the hard call.
Sometimes it looks like carrying vision with grace.

This spring, give yourself the space to reflect, connect, and lead at a deeper level.

Why Elevate Her Network Is Different

At Elevate Her Network, we don’t network for attention. We network for community.

We believe:

• Relationships come before referrals
• Trust matters more than transactions
• Collaboration grows businesses faster than competition
• Women rise higher when they rise together

Do I have to be a member to attend? No—visitors are welcome! If you love it (you will), we’ll share how to join and stay connected.

What if I’m shy or new to networking? Perfect. Our Match-Up format makes it easy—no awkward mingling. We guide you.

Will I get referrals right away? Sometimes yes—but the real win is building relationships that become referral pipelines over time.

What should I say in my 30-second intro? We’ll help you. Keep it simple: who you help, what problem you solve, and your best referral.

Come ready to connect, collaborate, and grow. Coffee and Snacks will be provided by our event sponsors, My Marketing Strategists. Thank you to our gracious venue sponsor, COHAB at The District Edina for welcoming us into your beautiful space.
