Women in Business Lunch: Six Months of Connection, Growth & Inspiration

Over the last six months, our Women in Business Lunch series has grown into something truly special. What began as a simple idea - gathering women together over a meal - has become a powerful space where business, purpose, and community meet.

More Than Networking

At these lunches, there’s no small talk. We dig deep into our whys - what drives us, the challenges we’ve faced, and the dreams we’re chasing. Each woman comes with an open heart and open mind, ready to share and ready to listen. The result? Conversations that are raw, uplifting, and deeply inspiring.

Real Stories, Real Growth

What makes these gatherings incredible isn’t just the incredible calibre of women at the table, but the honesty they bring. Together, we’ve explored what it means to build businesses with passion, balance ambition with family, and redefine success on our own terms.

We've shared the table with a woman carrying the quiet weight of grief, who left feeling lighter, energised, and empowered. We've heard from a counsellor devoted to helping women heal from trauma, and from a former single mother who once juggled three jobs and now guides other women to thrive in their own right. There's also the powerhouse who has built multiple businesses through sheer grit and determination.

These aren’t just stories; they’re reminders of the resilience, courage, and heart that fuel our community.

The Power of Community

Connections formed here go far beyond exchanging business cards. Collaborations have been born, friendships have blossomed, and many women have found the encouragement they didn’t even realise they needed. It’s a reminder that when women come together and truly open up, incredible things happen.

Looking Ahead

The past six months have been just the beginning. As our Women in Business Lunch continues to grow, we’re excited to see even more voices, more stories, and more moments of breakthrough at the table.

At SLAM, we believe success is built not just on strategy, but on community and connection — and our lunches are living proof of that.

✨ If you've been searching for a space where women truly see and support one another, this is it - consider this your personal invitation.
