Equi.Hound Collective: Fall Equinox Gathering
About this Event
This is an intentionally built intimate space where women in the pet industry can connect, share, and support one another without pressure.
I've reached out to a diverse group of women from across the canine and equine industries, each bringing their own experience and perspective to the table. This session is intentionally short, sweet, and easy to show up for. The goal is to make it impactful, not inconvenient.
This time around, we're gathering right at the fall equinox, a day in the year where light and dark sit in perfect balance. This felt like the right moment to pause together and take stock of where the year's actually taken us, and where we're headed from here.
What to Expect
- A relaxed, welcoming atmosphere
- Space to share your story
- Insight and perspective from a mix of pet-industry professionals
- Guided and open discussion on challenges, ideas, wins, and lessons
- A chance to meet potential collaborators, supporters, and referral partners
Whether you're new to the industry or have been in it for years, your voice and experience are welcome here.
