Master Your Pitch!

Thu, Jun 11, 10:00 PM

From All About The Bay

Most entrepreneurs know what they do. The problem is getting other people to feel it. You can have the best offer in the room — but if your pitch falls flat, your story doesn't land, or you freeze the moment someone hits record, none of it matters. Clients don't buy the best product. They buy the one they understand, trust, and feel connected to. This workshop is designed to close that gap. In four hours, you'll work directly with three expert facilitators who will help you communicate your purpose, tell your story, and show up on camera — with clarity, confidence, and the kind of presence that makes people say yes. 3:00 - 4:00 PM · Master Your Pitch for Different Audiences Led by Amirah Raveneau-Bey · Grow Scale Develop You already know what you do. Now it's time to say it in a way that actually lands — for every room you walk into. Amirah Raveneau-Bey is a Strategic Advisor and Executive Coach with 25+ years of revenue leadership experience at Zillow, Opendoor, NerdWallet, and Citibank. She has scaled businesses from early traction to $125M+ in monthly recurring revenue, led M&A integrations, and navigated business turnarounds that most people would have walked away from. In this session, Amirah will coach you on how to tailor your message and value proposition for four distinct audiences — funders and investors, customers and clients, collaborators and partners, and anyone in a networking conversation. Through live pitch practice, messaging clarity exercises, and real-time feedback, you'll leave knowing exactly how to open your mouth in any room and make people want to lean in. **This is not a lecture. This is live coaching.** 4:15 - 5:45 PM · The Epiphany Story Bridge Led by Karen Huang · ChWebMedia Facts tell. Stories sell. And the most powerful story you have is your own. In this session, Karen Huang introduces the Epiphany Story Bridge — a 9-step storytelling framework that takes your personal journey and structures it into a brand story that is relatable, trust-building, and conversion-ready. When you know how to tell your story this way, your audience doesn't just hear you — they see themselves in you. And that's the moment trust becomes connection, and connection becomes conversion. Walk away with your Epiphany Story Bridge mapped out and ready to use. 5:45 - 6:00PM - Food & Connection Refuel, connect with fellow entrepreneurs, and recharge before the final session. 6:00 - 7:00 PM · Video Toastmasters Breakthrough Session Led by Weihaur Lau · Beawaken You know you need to show up on video. You've told yourself you'll do it tomorrow — and tomorrow keeps getting pushed. In this session, Weihaur Lau creates a safe, small-group environment where you'll practice your pitch on camera, work through the fear that shows up the moment the recording starts, and walk out with your first brand or pitch video actually recorded. Not planned. Not scripted. Done. Through confidence-building exercises, authentic presence coaching, and live video practice, Weihaur will help you break through the wall that's been keeping you off camera — and show you that showing up as yourself is more than enough. You will leave this session with a video. That is the goal. Who this workshop is for This workshop is for you if you are an entrepreneur, startup founder, small business owner, creative, or college student who is building something and ready to communicate it clearly. It's for the person who freezes when someone asks "so what do you do?" It's for the person whose message makes sense in their head but gets lost in translation. It's for the person who has been avoiding the camera for months — maybe years. And it's for anyone who is tired of working hard and still not being fully seen, heard, or understood. You don't have to be polished. You don't have to be perfect. You just have to show up ready to work. $25 per person to cover the food and drinks · Limited seats Empowering Purpose. Building Impact.

East Bay Optimizers: Trail & Roast

Sat, Jun 20, 9:00 PM

From Gist IRL SF

4.7

**RSVP via:** https://app.gistirl.com/event-details/6EddNOZiyKxUvvbf1UCy **Early Bird Discounts | More $ Later** Crisp afternoon air, the scent of freshly poured coffee, and a lively crew of East Bay wellness optimizers ready to swap ideas and hit the dirt. Spend an hour in quick one-on-one rounds, then gather up your favorite matches to form small groups and head out to the trail or a local cafe together. Get ready for an hour of real one-on-one conversations with fellow East Bay wellness optimizers, seamlessly paired up by our app so you always know exactly who you are talking to next. Then comes the best part: you pick your favorite people from the rounds and head to a nearby coffee shop or embark on a group hike through Codornices Park together. It all happens this same afternoon, with one shared plan, and everyone going together. Just real conversation that turns into a real plan — with people you already vibe with. By the time you're grabbing coffee or walking the trails, you've got a crew to share it with. Maybe this becomes your weekly wellness and deep talk squad. Maybe it's just a great afternoon you'll remember. Either way, you're rolling with a crew. Agenda 2:00PM - Check-In Follow the link to complete a quick profile setup on your phone. 2:05PM - 3:25PM - One-on-One Rounds Our app pairs you for focused conversations. Find out who shares your commitment to growth, health, and meaningful connection. 3:25PM+ - Form Groups & pick a nearby coffee shop or head to the trail together Reconnect with your favorite matches, form groups of 4-6, and pick a nearby coffee shop or head to the trail together. Your group leaves together - tonight. Don't just collect contacts. Actually grab coffee or go for a hike with new people and see if this becomes your regular crew for new cafes and hiking trails to explore together. Want to stay in touch with someone? Use the app - it lets you connect without ever sharing your phone number. Meet the host: Hi, I’m Rose. Born and raised in the Bay Area, I’ve spent time working in entertainment, teaching, and brand events. I’m passionate about connecting with new people, building meaningful relationships, and helping create strong community wherever I go. **RSVP via:** https://app.gistirl.com/event-details/6EddNOZiyKxUvvbf1UCy **Early Bird Discounts | More $ Later**

Play for hours or a short while. You will find volleyball joy that will brighten your weekend or enough to change your life!  Please RSVP to let me know you’re coming BUT note that most players don’t RSVP. There will be 20-30+ players and most of them come around 10:30. I’m at the beach early to help players improve in one or all of three areas - physical, technical, or mental.  Bring what you would normally bring to the beach for a four hour stay. There is a bathroom across the street at the Beach Chalet which opens at 10:00. There are also bathrooms at the Beach Chalet sports field which is a six minute walk or at Safeway which is a five minute walk.  Equipment and all fees associated with putting on this event including creating this MeetUp group is out of pocket. My intent is to make this event readily available and affordable. Donations are very much appreciated. You may Venmo me @Dale Alvarez (smirking face emoji) 7330 or Zelle at jobealvarez@yahoo.com or 925-262-7330. Thanks so much! (I love your appreciative “thank-yous” but that doesn’t pay for the nets, balls, anchors, carabiners, gas, etc.) 🥰  You’ll find that all you really need to start to enjoy beach volleyball is a ball and someone to play with (even though we have a bunch of other stuff and many like minded players. I’m looking forward to contributing to your 3-4 hours of volleyball enjoyment!

Bartending Across The ABV Spectrum

Tue, Jun 16, 3:00 AM

From Off the Clock Industry Hangs Exploring Future of Beverages

RSVP here - https://partiful.com/e/8wYIsZWi7hrraag8gfjD?c=k0KMG0AI CS Juice and The Pathfinder are co-hosting the next Off-the-Clock gathering for the Bay Area hospitality community. Destroy the bad vibes with The Pathfinder where we are going to explore the future of non-alcoholic spirits, botanical cocktails, and the evolving culture of drinking. Pathfinder is used in both alcoholic and non alcoholic spirits. We will have a menu of three drinks (2 zero proof and 1 alcoholic) that guests will choose from. **About The Pathfinder** The Pathfinder is redefining the non-alcoholic category through a hemp-based fermented botanical spirit built for cocktail culture. Crafted with wormwood, ginger, sage, juniper, orange peel, and a complex blend of botanicals, Pathfinder was designed to bring the depth, bitterness, and ritual of classic spirits into a zero-proof format. Produced in small batches and rooted in apothecary-inspired traditions, Pathfinder has quickly become a favorite among bartenders and hospitality professionals looking to create more thoughtful, sophisticated drinking experiences. **About CS Juice** CS Juice is a specialty distributor of premium cold-pressed, HPP beverages built for the hospitality industry. CS Juice is rethinking local distribution through a hospitality-driven, referral-based model that puts relationships, transparency, and quality back at the center of the food system.

Walk & Talk About Life's Big Questions

Sat, Jun 6, 3:00 PM

From The Board Walks – San Francisco

5.0

[The Board Walks](http://www.theboardwalks.com/) are for curious people who love deep conversations. If that sounds like you, **bring a thoughtful topic** and join us for a 5-mile walk (10,000+ steps!). **HOW IT WORKS** **Step 1: Bring a topic** Before you arrive, think of **one** topic you want to explore. A question. A thought that's been on your mind. An obsession you want to geek out on. This is your ticket to the event. **Step 2: Circle up & share** We gather in a circle. Your friendly walk host gives a speech to set the tone. Everyone shares: your name, what you're grateful for, and your topic. That's it. 60 seconds. **Step 3: Walk, talk & float** We walk 5 miles. You naturally drift into conversation with 2-3 people at a time, pulled by topics that spark your curiosity. When you're ready to move on, just say: "I'm going to float!" **Step 4: Feel more alive** Two hours flies by. You're back where you started — but you feel different. More alive. More energized. More connected to yourself and others. That's why regulars join 20+ times. *For more details, read our [Orientation Guide.](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation)* **HOW TO BRING A GREAT TOPIC** A great topic = something you're genuinely curious about. Recent topics include: * "What are you passionate about right now?" * "What makes a good friend?" * "What's a belief you used to hold that you've completely changed?" * "How do you want to be remembered?" * "What would you do if money wasn't a factor?" Think of your topic like the dish you're bringing to our conversational potluck. If everyone brings an A+ dish (i.e. energizing, uplifting, expansive), we'll all walk away feeling lighter and brighter. **WHAT TO EXPECT** This isn't a fitness event with casual chitchat. It's a walking think tank where we explore life's big questions together, beyond small talk. *If you're looking for light banter or a standard networking event, this probably isn't the right fit.* But if you crave depth, genuine connection, and conversations that make you feel alive? You'll love it here. **FAQ** * Wear casual athletic attire and sneakers. It's a long walk! * We have multiple first-timers at each event. We work hard to create a welcoming, inclusive, clique-free space. * We welcome people of **all** ages, backgrounds, and industries who align with the [intention](https://www.theboardwalks.com/ground-rules) of this space. * Rain or shine, we've been out here nearly every week since July 2022. If the event is cancelled, we'll let you know. * Dogs, babies in strollers, parents, and friends are welcome — please text/email them the event link so they can RSVP and prepare a topic! **LOGISTICS** * If you'll arrive over 10 minutes late, we suggest skipping the event. It's hard to find us once we start walking, and your host can't answer messages during the event. * This walk is designed for everyone to *move together at the same steady pace* (about 20 min/mile). This format works best when the whole group moves in unison. If you have mobility limitations, we kindly encourage you to find an event better suited to your needs. * Read our [Orientation Guide](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation) for full details. * If you enjoy the event, send **[this](http://www.theboardwalks.com/)** to a friend or sign up for our **[newsletter](https://theboardwalks.beehiiv.com/)**. We're in multiple cities with more on the way. 🤠👋 **IF YOU WANT TO GO DEEPER...** [The Board](https://stan.store/ellebeecher/p/the-board) is the next step: a high-trust collective for renaissance people devoted to creating, connecting, and building lives that light us up. * This is a global HQ for people who crave big talk, deep connection, and dream collaborations with people across industries. If the walks feel like a spark... The Board is the fire. Apply [here](https://stan.store/ellebeecher/p/the-board).
