Top colleges don’t just admit students with good grades and test scores. They’re looking for students with clear direction\, real-world experience\, and a strong narrative woven through their entire application. \nThat’s exactly what we’ll show you at Family College Night. \nParents and students\, come together! This process works so much better when families tackle it as a team—because no one knows your student better than you do. \nHere’s what you’ll get: \nThe #1 mistake families make in college planning (and how to fix it)A step-by-step strategy for every grade level (6th-12th) to stay on trackThe activities\, courses\, and milestones that actually matter (and what’s just noise)How to build a standout student profile—no matter their strengthsA clear\, stress-free plan to open up more opportunities \nFamilies who start early and have a strategy set their students up for success—not just in college\, but in life. \nSave your spot now! And if you know a family who needs this\, invite them too! \n  \nAbout Kate Stone: \nWhen I was motorcycling around the rice fields of Bali in 2009 teaching with the Princeton fellowship program\, I never imagined that my work would evolve into the holistic preparatory program it is today—helping hundreds of students not just get into top universities\, but build extraordinary lives. \nIn my years working under top college coaches and developing lasting mentorships with heads of elite admissions\, I mastered the art ofpackaging and pitching successful college applicants. \nWhile guiding students into top schools\, I was also chasing my own lifelong dream—becoming a working actress\, a decade-long journey that took me from Hollywood to international film sets. Auditioning taught me that high stakes demand preparation\, and sold me on the power and importance of storytelling. I became known for my ability to draw stories out of teenagers and teach them how to tell their stories. \nBut the deeper I got into this work\, the more I saw the flaw in the college prep industry. It focuses too much on shaping the perfect application and not enough on shaping the person. I didn’t want to just help kids tell their stories. I wanted to help them create stories. And I didn’t want to work exclusively with the top 5% of students already destined for success. I wanted to help all students build lives so interesting\, so bold\, that their stories naturally became compelling. \nThis is when Kate Stone Prep was born. \nIt wasn’t just about college anymore. It became about mentorship\, character development\, and pushing students to do things they never thought they could. I would not be doing the level of work I am today without the mentors I’ve had\, the deep fears I’ve had to confront\, and the training and conditioning I’ve put myself through. The best part about this approach is that it works for college admissions\, job placement\, and success in life. \nThe sudden passing of my mother brought me back home. With the expansion of my team and new offices\, I’ve doubled down on my mission to solve the education problems in this country\, starting with my local community. \nI look forward to the opportunity to work with your family. \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n CAN’T MAKE THIS EVENT?  \nGet on our email list for future event notifications\n \n \n \n \n \n CURIOUS ABOUT HAYVN?  \nBook a tour \n \n \n \n \n \n WANT TO SEE MORE?  \nView our full event calendar URL:https://hayvn.com/event/family-college-night-2025-04-06/ LOCATION:HAYVN Darien\, 320 Post Road\, Darien\, CT\, 06820\, United States CATEGORIES:Career Forum,Networking,Personal and Professional Development,Social ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://hayvn.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Family-College-Night-HAYVN-Website-Calendar-745x500px.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20250407T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20250407T160000 DTSTAMP:20260406T134723 CREATED:20250214T194825Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250214T194836Z UID:10003180-1744034400-1744041600@hayvn.com SUMMARY:HAYVN MINI HIVES: Weekly Meeting DESCRIPTION:HAYVN Mini HIVES are small\, focused groups of HAYVN members who support one another in a mastermind experience.

Discover the truth about college majors\, the critical role of internships\, and how to develop essential networking skills\, interview techniques\, and personal storytelling. This focused presentation provides actionable advice to turn your college investment into career success. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Curtis Butler: \nCurtis spent 30 years in finance as an investor and client-facing executive at industry-leading firms including J.P. Morgan\, Jennison Associates\, and an affiliate of Legg Mason. He has built and led teams and has been on both sides of the interview table hundreds of times. He has a keen understanding of what moves a resume to the top of the pile and what soft skills are required to stand out in an interview. \nThroughout his career\, Curtis always made time for mentoring and has provided individualized coaching to scores of college and graduate students at his Alma maters\, Union College and Johns Hopkins University. He has also stepped in to help children of friends and colleagues escape the frustration of a job search and embark on successful careers. His passion for coaching students and young professionals led Curtis to launch Guided Ascent Career Coaching in 2024\, with Zoom-based 1-on-1 coaching designed to help clients define their path\, plan the steps that can lead them there\, and apply the job-search strategies that have proven successful over time — regardless of the industry. \nCurtis lives in Darien\, CT with his wife and two daughters. In his free time\, Curtis loves to paint and cook and get outdoors as much as he can. But most of all\, he looks forward to the time he spends with his family\, doing just about anything. \nLEARN MORE ABOUT US: \nhttps://www.facebook.com/curtisabutlerhttps://www.instagram.com/curtisabutlerhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/curtisbutler/ \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n CAN’T MAKE THIS EVENT?  \nGet on our email list for future event notifications\n \n \n \n \n \n CURIOUS ABOUT HAYVN?  \nBook a tour \n \n \n \n \n \n WANT TO SEE MORE?  \nView our full event calendar URL:https://hayvn.com/event/curtis-butler-2025-05-04/ LOCATION:HAYVN Greenwich\, 1700 E Putnam Ave Suite 208\, Old Greenwich\, CT\, 06870\, United States CATEGORIES:Career Forum,Networking,Personal and Professional Development,Social ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://hayvn.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/Curtis-Butler-Promo-Kit-Email-Newsletter-Highlight-550x309px.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20250504T153000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20250504T173000 DTSTAMP:20260406T134724 CREATED:20250415T172450Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250424T171746Z UID:10003229-1746372600-1746379800@hayvn.com SUMMARY:A Kate Stone Prep Event: Family College Night DESCRIPTION:Sunday\, May 4\nA Kate Stone Prep Event: Family College Night\n\n\n\nInsider college prep advice from Darien’s College Coach\, Kate Stone! Brought to you by Kate Stone College Consulting. https://universitygurus.com \n\n\n\nDate and time\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSunday\, May 4 · 3:30 – 5:30pm EST\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLocation\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHAYVN Coworking – Darien \n320 Boston Post Road #Suite 180 Darien\, CT 06820 \n \n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this event\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFamily College Night \nMost families approach college admissions the wrong way—checking boxes\, chasing prestige\, and following outdated advice. \nBig mistake. \nThe truth? Top colleges don’t just admit students with good grades and test scores. They’re looking for students with clear direction\, real-world experience\, and a strong narrative woven through their entire application. \nThat’s exactly what we’ll show you at Family College Night. \nParents and students\, come together! This process works so much better when families tackle it as a team—because no one knows your student better than you do. \nHere’s what you’ll get: \n\nThe #1 mistake families make in college planning (and how to fix it)\nA step-by-step strategy for every grade level (6th-12th) to stay on track\nThe activities\, courses\, and milestones that actually matter (and what’s just noise)\nHow to build a standout student profile—no matter their strengths\nA clear\, stress-free plan to open up more opportunities\n\nFamilies who start early and have a strategy set their students up for success—not just in college\, but in life. \nSave your spot now! And if you know a family who needs this\, invite them too! \nAbout Kate Stone: \nWhen I was motorcycling around the rice fields of Bali in 2009 teaching with the Princeton fellowship program\, I never imagined that my work would evolve into the holistic preparatory program it is today—helping hundreds of students not just get into top universities\, but build extraordinary lives. \nIn my years working under top college coaches and developing lasting mentorships with heads of elite admissions\, I mastered the art ofpackaging and pitching successful college applicants. \nWhile guiding students into top schools\, I was also chasing my own lifelong dream—becoming a working actress\, a decade-long journey that took me from Hollywood to international film sets. Auditioning taught me that high stakes demand preparation\, and sold me on the power and importance of storytelling. I became known for my ability to draw stories out of teenagers and teach them how to tell their stories. \nBut the deeper I got into this work\, the more I saw the flaw in the college prep industry. It focuses too much on shaping the perfect application and not enough on shaping the person. I didn’t want to just help kids tell their stories. I wanted to help them create stories. And I didn’t want to work exclusively with the top 5% of students already destined for success. I wanted to help all students build lives so interesting\, so bold\, that their stories naturally became compelling. \nThis is when Kate Stone Prep was born. \nIt wasn’t just about college anymore. It became about mentorship\, character development\, and pushing students to do things they never thought they could. I would not be doing the level of work I am today without the mentors I’ve had\, the deep fears I’ve had to confront\, and the training and conditioning I’ve put myself through. The best part about this approach is that it works for college admissions\, job placement\, and success in life. \nThe sudden passing of my mother brought me back home. With the expansion of my team and new offices\, I’ve doubled down on my mission to solve the education problems in this country\, starting with my local community. \nI look forward to the opportunity to work with your family. \nLEARN MORE ABOUT US: \nhttps://instagram.com/katefracestonehttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61569472412376https://www.linkedin.com/in/katherinestone1/ \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n CAN’T MAKE THIS EVENT?  \nGet on our email list for future event notifications\n \n \n \n \n \n CURIOUS ABOUT HAYVN?  \nBook a tour \n \n \n \n \n \n WANT TO SEE MORE?  \nView our full event calendar URL:https://hayvn.com/event/kate-stone-2025-05-04/ LOCATION:HAYVN Darien\, 320 Post Road\, Darien\, CT\, 06820\, United States CATEGORIES:Career Forum,Networking,Personal and Professional Development,Social ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://hayvn.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/Kate-Stone_Family-College-Night_May-4-2025_550x309.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20250506T080000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20250506T090000 DTSTAMP:20260406T134724 CREATED:20241101T142639Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250521T202928Z UID:10002996-1746518400-1746522000@hayvn.com SUMMARY:Morning Meditation & Walk DESCRIPTION:Join us for our weekly nature walk through Sellecks Woods and morning meditation led by our amazing HAYVN members.

In 2010\, Connecticut locals Dana Noorily and Julie Mountain met at a child’s birthday party and bonded over everything from meal prep to a shared desire to create something cool. The vision? Beautiful\, giftable granola that’s less crunchy hippy and more crunchy delicious. Before long\, O.A.T.S. Granola was born. \nYears later\, Noorily and Mountain evolved the O.A.T.S. business into a cafe and storefront. Never not hungry\, the ladies collaborated on their dream menu consisting of nutrient-dense\, beautiful comfort food with a cheeky nod to their signature granola. \nBut beyond the perfect parfait was the women’s desire to create a lively space that doubled as a home away from home for the community – where parents could linger over coffee after drop-off\, or families could eat a weeknight meal as familiar as sitting around their own table. Think the Cheers soundtrack but with amazing food. The Granola Bar flagship opened its doors in December 2013 in Westport\, CT. \nToday\, The Granola Bar in its original form is now TGB Hospitality Group\, spanning eight restaurants in Connecticut and New York\, a catering business and restaurant consultancy. October 2024 marked the launch of the newest location in Woodbury\, Long Island offering a daytime menu\, complete with full bar and elevated classics which harken back to the pillars of its original vision – easy\, feel-good fare rooted in laughter\, friendship and family. \nLINKS TO EXPLORE: https://www.thegranolabar.com/ \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nQuestions?
