Phoenix Nova Connect + Elevate: Owning Your Story 02-26-26

Curated connection and member-led workshops for intentional women creating their lives and work with clarity, depth, and impact.

CONNECT + ELEVATE

A Curated Gathering for Women Consciously Creating Their Lives and Who Knows the Room Matters

Phoenix | February 26, 2026 @ Kiln Biltmore

You’re intentional about how you live and how you work. You care not just about what you’re building, but how you’re building it and who you’re in the room with along the way.

Connect + Elevate is Nova’s new signature monthly gathering in Phoenix, created for women and non-binary seasoned professionals who want meaningful connection, thoughtful conversation, and growth that actually feels aligned with their lives. Not just more contacts but people who understand why your values matter as much as your vision.

This isn’t about filling a calendar or working a room. It’s about spending your time with people who make you think differently, feel more like yourself, and leave you feeling more seen than when you arrived.

CONNECT
We begin with guided connection around our theme of the month — not icebreakers, but intentional dialogue that moves purposefully into real conversation. The structure is designed to help you meet people you are so excited to know, without forcing performance or small talk.

You’ll leave this portion with a sense of who’s in the room and who you want to continue the conversation with outside the room.

FEBRUARY'S THEME: OWNING YOUR STORY

Your story is one of your greatest sources of strength. This month invites you to embrace every chapter — the messy, the meaningful, and everything in between. Through reflection and sharing, we’ll explore how your lived experience shapes your leadership, deepens empathy, and builds connection. Owning your story is how you step more fully into your power.

Guest Speaker: Judith Manriquez

ELEVATE
In the second half, a Nova member leads a short, live workshop rooted in lived experience. These sessions are practical, relevant, and grounded — offering insight you can apply immediately.

Topics vary month to month and include leadership, money, visibility, communication, wellbeing, or sustainable success. Each workshop is designed to elevate both the member leading and the collective intelligence of the room.

SPEAKER: Judith Manriquez

Connect + Elevate is for you if:

• You value quality over quantity in your relationships
• You appreciate thoughtful facilitation and intelligent, meaningful conversation
• You’re growing something — a business, a career, a body of work
• You want connection that feels aligned, not transactional

This is a room for people who arrive as they are and leave more connected, clearer, and expanded.
