HAYVN Half Time:
Clarifying What’s Next : Why Your “Why” Matters
October 13, 2026: 12:00-1:00pm, HAYVN Greenwich
You know something needs to change. You’re just not sure what – or how to start.
An overview of how to clarify what’s next, rooted in your values and purpose. Through guided reflection and a short video, you’ll see that knowing your “why” is the foundation of any meaningful transition.
Who this is for:
- The founder whose business is running fine and no longer lights her up.
- The woman who is good at what she does and not sure she wants to keep doing it.
- The leader who feels like burn out is part of the job.
- The woman whose kids just left for college and now has space for herself.
What you’ll walk away with:
A clearer read on what energizes you – and why that’s where the work starts.
This part one of a two part event series. The next event will be on October 29th.
