Yesterday, Green Bay’s Rising Tide Society gathered at my house for our December Meetup/Holiday Party!! It was so great to welcome all these wonderful creatives and boss ladies into my home for an afternoon of rest and relaxation. We sat around my farmhouse dining room table and shared all our favorite holiday traditions and our plans for this off-season while we sipped hot cocoa or hot cider. In the spirit of Christmas, we even exchanged fun gifts!

We also celebrated the six month anniversary of our TuesdaysTogether meetups. It feels like not too long ago, I was prepping for the first meetup at Hello Lemon Studio, so anxious and scared that no one would show up. Now, six months later, our group is almost 300 strong and full of amazing creatives, entrepreneurs, and artists! I cannot thank this group enough for all the love, support, and encouragement they have shared with not only me, but with each other! I’m so lucky that I get to lead such an incredible city full of wonderful people!!

I hope all our Rising Tide Members have a great holiday season and a Happy New Year! I can’t wait to see them all in 2016!

Obviously, my holiday pillow game is on my point. (: I have a serious pillow obsession!

The awesome gift Teagan, owner of A Drop in the Water, made for me!

A flashback to our first meetup back in June!! We were excited back then for our group to start changing the industry and making waves but we had no idea how great of an effect this group would have on us and our community!!
