A Fresh Start Begins with the Right Room
January offers a rare pause. A chance to reset, refocus, and reconnect with what matters professionally. Coffee Connection creates that pause intentionally by bringing women together in a welcoming space designed for clarity, conversation, and momentum.
This event invites you to step out of the “Mom-box” and back into your professional self. Whether you are growing a business, returning to work, pivoting careers, or simply craving meaningful connection, this morning is designed with you in mind.

Hosted with Purpose
Join Untapped Potential community members attending this Coffee Connection brought to the community in partnership with the local FemCity Chapter, led by Coach Julie Alyson.
Untapped Potential supports women navigating career transitions, reentry, and growth through community, programming, and mentorship. Learn more about our mission through Untapped Potential’s About Page.
FemCity is a global network of professional women known for creating supportive, purposeful spaces where authentic connection thrives. Their local chapters offer events that prioritize relationship-building over transactional networking.
What Makes Coffee Connection Stand Out
This is not a drop-in networking event. Coffee Connection is structured to help you leave with clarity and tangible next steps.
You can expect:
Guided reflection on your professional goals
Meaningful conversation with like-minded women
A supportive environment that encourages follow-through
Connections that extend beyond the event
This approach aligns with Untapped Potential’s belief that confidence grows through community and intentional professional engagement. You can explore similar experiences on our Events Page.
Mini-Workshop with Coach Julie Alyson
We are so fortunate to work with tremendous coaches such as Julie! The morning features a 30-minute mini-workshop led by Julie Alyson, Founder of the YOU Decide Framework.
This focused session helps participants cut through overwhelm and reconnect with what truly matters next.
During the mini-workshop, you will:
Choose one professional focus for the next 90 days
Identify what you are ready to release to create momentum
Clarify one simple action step you can take immediately
This clarity anchors the rest of the event and sets the tone for purposeful conversation.
Accelerated Networking That Feels Human
Following the mini-workshop, participants take part in a Networking Accelerator designed to foster genuine support.
Each participant brings:
One Ask
One Give
This structure ensures that conversations lead to real resources, encouragement, and collaboration. It also removes the pressure often associated with networking, making it accessible for women at any career stage.
Built-In Accountability and Support
One of the most impactful elements of Coffee Connection is the opportunity to connect with an accountability partner.
These partnerships help turn intention into action by offering:
Ongoing encouragement
Simple check-ins
Shared momentum
This mirrors the accountability-centered approach used across Untapped Potential programs, including our Talent Engagement Pathway.
Who Should Attend Coffee Connection
If you have been wondering where you were going to practice your elevator pitch - now you have a perfect target at this accelerated networking event.
It is ideal for women who:
Want clarity on their next professional step
Value supportive, purpose-driven connection
Want to start the year with intention rather than pressure
You do not need to arrive with a polished plan. You only need curiosity and openness.
Why This Event Matters
Moments of clarity often begin in community. Coffee Connection creates space for reflection, encouragement, and renewed confidence.
Participants often leave with:
A clear 90-day focus
Meaningful professional connections
Renewed energy and motivation
Practical next steps
These outcomes align directly with Untapped Potential’s mission to help women reconnect with their professional identity and momentum. Plus, by attending you will have your elevator pitch well practiced for Reignite '26 celebrating UP's 10 Years of Impact.
