Evolve is all about creating an Authentic Community, Deeper Connections, and Confident Growth. We are a group of entrepreneurial women who connect personally and professionally. We welcome every guest to experience our authentic community with no cliques and no judgment. Come as you are! There's a seat waiting for you. Elevate is an action-oriented connection experience designed to help women entrepreneurs move beyond surface-level networking and into meaningful growth, collaboration, and courageous action. Each session centers around a focused business or personal development topic, followed by intentional breakout discussions that encourage deeper conversations, real relationship-building, and practical next steps. Unlike traditional networking events, Elevate is designed to create momentum. Women are encouraged not only to share ideas, but to actively support one another through accountability, collaboration, brainstorming, and action-based growth. Every meeting is an opportunity to build authentic connections, gain fresh perspective, and leave with a clear action step to implement before the next session. This is a space where women rise together — not through competition or hustle culture, but through encouragement, courage, consistency, and intentional community. \*\*Evolve Women's Collective is a membership based professional women's group.

🎬💥 Simply Living Film Series + Special Guest Panel! Join Us for BOMBSHELL! History doesn't just shape our past—it shapes the conversations we're having today! Join Simply Living's Film Series at Gateway Film Center for a special screening of BOMBSHELL, a compelling documentary exploring how the story of the atomic bomb was presented to the public—and the courageous journalists who challenged official narratives and worked to uncover the human cost, even as government censorship limited what could be reported. From local conversations to national headlines and global events, the film raises questions that resonate today: Who shapes the stories we hear? Whose voices are missing? And why does independent journalism matter in a world of competing narratives? ✨ Stay for a special panel discussion featuring director Ben Loeterman, producer Gaia de Simoni, and historian Felecia Ross, moderated by Spencer Hunt, Director of Student Media for The Lantern at Ohio State. Come for the film, stay for the conversation, and discover how lessons from history can deepen our understanding of today's world. 📍 Gateway Film Center \| Columbus\, OH 📅 October 26 \| 6:30–8:30 PM \(Doors open at 6:15 PM\) 🎟️ Tickets $10 (stay tuned for ticket link!) Bring a friend, bring your curiosity, and join the conversation! #SimplyLiving #BOMBSHELL #GatewayFilmCenter #ColumbusEvents #IndependentJournalism
