We hosted an incredible group of business women this week at our Xperience Connections event, says Carol Neal. And a special thank you goes to my co-leader, Susan Hendrix! She is an amazing chef and loyal business partner. We are blessed to be united in this mission, said, Susan! By working with other leaders, we create nurturing environments that have the right balance of empathy, self-worth, motivation, and continuous self-improvement.

XC offers businesswomen/ entrepreneurs a multi-dimensional environment of expression and education.

Now, I ask you, what are the odds of finding someone from your home town, sitting in an Xperience Connections Event while sharing a delicious meal together? Slim to none? It was discovered that two participants were very familiar with Buffalo, NY and had both been raised in the same area; lots of reminiscing going on that evening. Laughter was also on tap. I could hardly stand-up as Susan had us in stitches. She said, “it’s tough being a farmer and battling the elements” as she pointed outside to her TOWER GARDEN. (Tower Garden is a unique aeroponic vertical garden system that makes it easy to grow your own fresh fruits and vegetables at home.)

Xperience Connections is actively seeking visionary, community leaders to help guide our organization and participants as they seek mentorship, help and emotional support in safe and professional settings.  Our existing XC Leaders represent a wide variety of skills, backgrounds and businesses.  They are committed to collaborate with one another and to carry out our mission:  Xperience Connections is positioned to encourage and facilitate the growth, performance and integrity of professional women by creating opportunities to foster relationships through a creative exchange of information and referrals. 

If you would like to become part of our leadership community , I invite you to complete the online XC Leadership Candidate Form so we can mutually evaluate each other to determine if there is a good fit for us to move forward together.
