Corporate Burnout: Melt + Mingle

An invite-only to unwind for Black professionals (EXCLUSIVELY):

• Hosted by Tina Forbez.
• Guest Speaker: Dr. Lauren Harper

Corporate Burnout draining you too?

Join us for our very first Melt + Mingle experience! 

Enjoy a room that feels familiar where no one has to translate themselves. Come pour a custom candle and personalize stickers that lets you truly be seen. Then stay for a private social hour that pours back into you. No small-talk, just good company and replenishing conversations. We’ve curated a safe place to release the week: vent, complain, take up space, and most importantly create. Come alone or bring a friend but leave feeling lighter.

What to expect

• EARLY BIRD SPECIAL: Personalized stickers by RepME
• Guided candle making experience led by Precious ( Mister OK’s Essentials)
• Tools to help take up space and guide our candid conversation by Dr. Lauren Harper
• Private mixer playlist to unmask and connect with community by Sondae
• Complimentary refreshments by Silk Honey Nectar
• Affirming atmosphere that honors real conversation without performance

Your ticket includes

All materials to make a 4 oz soy wax candle, a scent-blending lesson, custom labels, personalized stickers, a social happy hour, light bites, drinks, and an escape from the confinement of corporate culture.
