She Means Business Edinburgh

I promise is this is the last time we talk about She Means Business Edinburgh turning 2!!! 🤣🤣

The official birthday is in August, but our first event was held in September and here I am posting in October… 😅 it’s just been very busy few weeks and I have never had a chance to share these lovely birthday wishes from some of the wonderful women who make SMBE what it is and I just wanted to share it with you. ❤️

It is the community that makes She Means Business what it is and I am so grateful for every single one of you.

And with that season “2nd birthday “ comes to an end. Good night 😅🥂

🌸 SPOTLIGHT SESSION SPEAKER ANNOUNCEMENT 🌸

We are incredibly excited to welcome Mary Turner Thomson, international bestselling author, inspirational speaker and survivor of an extraordinary story of deception, bigamy and betrayal. Mary has shared her experience through her bestselling books The Bigamist and The Psychopath, turning an unimaginably difficult chapter of her life into a powerful story of survival, learning and resilience.

Mary will be joining us at She Means Business Edinburgh to talk all things resilience and remind us that, when life throws the unexpected our way, we are often far more capable and stronger than we give ourselves credit for.

Female only entrepreneur networking event. Expand your network, share your experiences and establish meaningful connections.

Thanks to everyone who joined us on Monday for our first networking event after summer break, to celebrate our second birthday 🎈

This was also the last event at the place where it all began. After two wonderful years at Craws Nest Collective we will now be moving to at Chesser. ❤️

I would like to take a moment and thank Pam and Laura for all their support over the past two years and for allowing me to bring She Means Business Edinburgh to life. ❤️

Cheers to 2 years and everything that comes next 🌸🥂

What an evening! 🍸✨

I am so happy with how our second event at Pickering’s turned out. The room was filled with incredible businesses, great conversations, plenty of laughs, and of course, some fantastic cocktails!

From cocktail making to tasting sessions, it is safe to say that some of us carried on sampling well into the evening. 😅 And am I the only one who has only just discovered snacking pickles? I think I managed a pouch with every drink! 🥒😂

A huge thank you to our event partners, and .propertyservices , who jumped on board without hesitation. Your support means so much, and I am incredibly grateful to have you alongside us.

And to Summerhall Distillery, thank you for being such fantastic hosts. We will definitely be back! 🖤
