Reset & Refresh: Headshots & Vision Boarding Evening

Starting something new? Returning to work? Just ready for a reset?

This evening is for women who are stepping into their next chapter—whether that's a career pivot, a return to the workforce, or simply a fresh season of life. We're combining the practical (professional headshots) with the personal (vision boarding) in a relaxed, supportive space where you can actually enjoy yourself.

What You'll Experience:

• Professional Headshot (by Sydney Allen Photography) – Get a fresh, polished photo for LinkedIn, your resume, or just because you deserve an updated picture
• Guided Vision Boarding – Map out your goals for the season ahead with intention (and magazines, scissors, and a glass of wine)
• Genuine Connection – Meet other women navigating similar transitions in a low-pressure, intimate setting
• Motivational Remarks – Hear from The Family Room owner about building community and showing up for yourself

This isn't your typical networking event. There are no forced icebreakers, no pressure to perform, and definitely no pretending you have it all figured out. Just honest conversation, creative expression, and the chance to invest in yourself for a few hours.

Who This Is For:

• Women returning to the workforce or refreshing their professional brand
• Anyone navigating a career transition or personal reinvention
• Professionals who need updated headshots (and want to do it in good company)
• Women seeking meaningful connection and a supportive environment

Space is intentionally limited to 30 women to keep the experience intimate and authentic.

About The Shared Table: Founded by Cassie Chattams, The Shared Table specializes in creating intimate, thoughtfully curated experiences that bring people together. We believe the best moments happen when the details are handled and you can simply show up as yourself.

Info: Settle in with wine or beer and light appetizers. Meet other attendees and get a feel for the space. No rushed small talk—just natural conversation as people arrive.

Info: Welcome from The Shared Table founder Cassie Chattams and motivational words from The Family Room owner about showing up for yourself and your community.

Info: The main event! You'll rotate through for your professional headshot while spending time creating your vision board and connecting with other women. This is unstructured time by design—move between activities at your own pace, have real conversations, and enjoy the creative process.

Info: Finish your vision board, grab any last-minute connections (business cards welcome!), and leave feeling refreshed and ready for whatever's next.
