The best part of the Sisterhood Soiree was the conversations with long-time and new friends. The content was amazing and the flow was perfect—not too fast and not too slow. I’m planning on being back because it was just so much fun!

How often do you walk into a room with people you have mostly only seen online and felt like you were at home with best friends or those who would soon be? That was the Sisterhood Soiree! An event not to miss in the future!

I knew the women of Virtual Networkers were amazing—but being together in person was next-level. Laughing, sharing stories, and holding space for one another created the kind of soul-deep connection you just can’t get on Zoom.

Agenda

Day One:

Arrive early and enjoy a casual day of connection with your VN sisters. We’ll plan light, optional activities based on interest—think sightseeing, meals, and meaningful conversation.

Your ticket price stays the same whether you join us or not.

Day Two:

Day Two is the beginning of our conference. We will kick off  with a continental breakfast, followed by our 30-second introductions. We will then embark on a day of growth and connection. We will have speakers and panels to help you learn and grow.

Wrap up the day with a fun Coffee Date Party!

Day Three:

Enjoy continental breakfast before continueing your experience with networking, business masterminds, and speakers/panels, all to help you take your business to the next level.

Our founder Jill Celeste will share a “State of the Union,” and we’ll finish the day with Closing Ceremonies.

Where do I even begin with why I adored this event?

First, the fun surprise—so many people thought I was a “tiny little thing” after years of seeing me in a Zoom box… only to be floored when they realized I’m actually tall! That moment turned into something truly special: the hugs. I finally got to embrace women I’ve cared about for years. There’s just something powerful about human touch.

Second, the intelligence and talent in that room blew me away. We shared stories, photos of grandbabies and travels, and I found myself wondering, how did they also find time to write books and grow thriving businesses? The answer: unwavering support from the Virtual Networkers community.

But my favorite part? The energy. Every woman came to give, to grow, and to strengthen our sisterhood. It was pure magic.

Why You Should Attend:

 

​Deepen your connections

You’ve seen each other in Zoom rooms—now it’s time to really connect. Hug your VN sisters, have unhurried conversations, and share stories that build lifelong bonds.

Whether it’s over coffee, lunch, or on a bench near the park, these moments will deepen your sense of belonging.

Be surrounded by brilliance

Our community is bursting with wisdom, and the Soiree brings it front and center. You’ll learn from fellow members through powerful presentations and panel discussions, plus engage in collaborative mastermind-style sessions where everyone brings insight to the table.

Recharge your energy and mindset

This isn’t just about business, it’s about you! Expect space to reflect, dream, and tranform. You’ll leave feeling inspired, supported, and more aligned with your purpose and goals than ever before.

Experience the magic of sisterhood

From the Coffee Date Party to spontaneous hallway chats, the Soiree is packed with high-vibe, heart-centered moments that remind you: You are not alone in this journey. You have a sisterhood behind you.

    Attending the Virtual Networkers Sisterhood Soiree was everything I didn’t know my soul needed. The event was perfectly paced with engaging, insightful speakers and generous space for meaningful networking—but the real magic? Meeting my fellow networkers in person for the very first time. 

    There were hugs, laughter, tears, and the kind of genuine, heart-centered connection that goes far beyond a Zoom screen. Over those two days, acquaintances became friends, and friendships deepened in the most beautiful way. The vibe was warm, welcoming, and wildly empowering.

    If you’re craving connection, community, and a little business inspiration wrapped in sisterhood, I can’t recommend the Sisterhood Soiree enough. It was totally kick-ass and I’d attend again in a heartbeat!
