Shine theory 

When you meet a woman who is intimidatingly witty, stylish, beautiful, and professionally accomplished, befriend her. Surrounding yourself with the best people doesn’t make you look worse by comparison. It makes you better.

The Basics. 

Location, timing

The workshops take place at HiVE (128 W Hastings St., Suite #210).
The venue is on the second floor and a staff member will buzz you in. 

The workshops start right at 11:00am each day. We'd love for you to arrive at 10:30am, so we can get caffeinated and set up the room. (A few of you have later arrival times.)  If you're running late or can't make it, please text Megan at 604-723-0842.

There will be a 30-minute lunch/snack break in the middle of the session. We'll have treats from Pure Bread and coffee from Matchstick, which you are welcome to enjoy.

As a reminder, you can find all the workshop dates and descriptions on this page. You are welcome to attend any of the sessions.
