Panel Party!
Event description
Connect, celebrate, and create aligned partnerships & collaborations.
Join us for a collaboration-themed rooftop panel rendezvous! Bring your bestie or work wife, and enjoy some snacks, sips (did someone say open wine bar?), dancing, raffle, and a panel discussion with three of Portland’s leading ladies in soul-led business.
Upper Left Ladies Co-Founder & CEO of Style Opal, Jyssica Leilani, will be hosting our panel discussion between three fabulous panelists:
- Lauren Yoshiko of Broccoli Mag, Broccoli Talk podcast, and creator of the Broccoli Report
- Yvonne Perez Emerson, founder of Make & Mary
- CC Barber, spiritual healer and founder of Luminessence Living
What’s on the menu? We'll be passing appetizers like oysters & stuffed mushrooms—and YES, there will be an open wine bar! As always, a non-alcoholic option will be provided for your refreshment too. Portland's own Lolo NA sparkling hops has your back with their herbal-infused refreshments. 😘
We’re elated to gather with you in-person again, and to host our first panel event since pre-pandemic times. And if you aren’t in Portland or can’t make it IRL? We have a virtual ticket option for those who want to enjoy the panel discussion, Q+A, and some networking with the other virtual attendees!
