Description

***NO AGENTS***

The Bold, Beautiful & In Business Summit will bring together women entrepreneurs, business owners and professionals for 2 days of networking, learning and leadership in our vibrant CIBN Connect community.

You will find our high level contacts to be fully engaged with their cameras on, ready to participate with feedback and interaction. Our chat lines will be open for booking appointments on the spot and getting a meeting from the meeting at every meeting.

Each of our Speakers will share the event with their own email lists and their own communities, and we will also share the event with our 86,000 people on MeetUp to insure an excellent turnout for everyone.

Speakers who promote will be rewarded with prizes and shout outs before, during, and after the event.

Our Speakers Are Members Of CIBN Connect (But We Guarantee An ROI)

If you are not familiar with CIBN Connect you may not realize that this is a members organization where our Speakers Level of member signs up to speak for our many events each year. There are 6-8 major events and dozens of smaller events that our speakers can speak at. Membership gives you speakers training, speakers tools to fill events of your own, magazine coverage (if you buy the annual) and a booking tool that is used on LinkedIn as well. Many summits ask speakers for a fee. There is no fee for one summit, but you do access many speaking events with membership.

We don't require that you have an email list of 5,000, but our membership at the Speakers Level will show you how to gain a following of more than 10,000 people with simple repeat steps on the social channels of your choice. We recently used these steps on MeetUp as a new platform and went from zero to 45,000 in the last 5 months. This is the kind of thing we teach our speakers to do.

The Speakers Membership is $77/month but there are 3 major benefits of signing up $777 for the year:

  1. $147 in savings or basically 2 months for free
  2. A full page in the Connector Magazine valued at $1500 and then another full page in the Bold, Beautiful & In Business Magazine valued at another $1500.
  3. We will market an event of yours (webinar, seminar, coffee chat) to our 44,000 people on MeetUp twice a year. It generally puts 20 to 40 butts in seats each time, so as long as you can sell this is a HUGE BANG FOR YOUR BUCK!

If you are not a Member yet and you have questions, book time with our CEO Kerry George.

→ How one visual map can replace hours of back-and-forth
→ The ONE shift that turns strategic chaos into obvious

Anna will demonstrate live - so you won't just hear about visible thinking. You will experience it.

You'll leave with a practical framework to make your next decision - or your next event - visibly stronger.

Create Freedom and Momentum in Your Business

This is the Year of the Fire Horse - the year to move forward, powerfully. 

Since COVID, there has been so much change - it has been a bit head spinning. It's been hard to know the right direction to go in. 

That lack of clarity causes us to pause, be uncertain, not take action. Many of us have lost momentum, which has made us discourage. 

Now it is time to move past all of that - time to SOAR and be our full selves again so we can move our businesses forward!

The Unspoken Sabotage: $8.3 Billion Lost When Abuse Silences High-Achieving Women
Marysol James Writer/ Speaker/ Coach

High-achieving women are often seen as unstoppable... until they quietly fade. Behind many of these disappearances lies a devastating but overlooked reality: emotional and narcissistic abuse, often occurring in secret, at home, while they continue to show up at work.


In this bold and eye-opening talk, bestselling author and survivor-turned-speaker Marysol James shares how covert abuse erodes women’s confidence, cognitive clarity, and professional presence, leading to underperformance, burnout, and ultimately, departure. The cost is staggering: an estimated $8.3 billion in lost productivity in the U.S. alone.

Combining compelling personal narrative, research-backed insight, and practical recommendations, Marysol empowers leaders, HR professionals, and Chief Wellness Officers, to recognise the signs, respond appropriately, and build trauma-informed cultures that don’t just protect women, but also retain them.

Because when abuse goes unseen, companies lose more than people: they lose brilliance, innovation, and long-term leadership potential.

The Flowing Founder: How to Build And Scale a Business That Feeds Your Income, Your Mind, and Your Soul
Michela Quilici Your Business Navigator

Built a business that pays you but leaves you exhausted, stressed, and busier than ever?

Forget everything you've been told about working harder, hustling more, and finding the "right" strategy. The reason your business feels heavy has nothing to do with your work ethic — and everything to do with a hidden mismatch most coaches and consultants completely ignore.

Hi, I'm Michela Quilici — business growth strategist, Forbes Coach, and 5x international bestselling author. For 25 years I've helped founders and CEOs break through growth plateaus — by building businesses that fit who they actually are.

I’ll share with you why “borrowed strategies” are the true source of exhaustion and the unmoving “Stuckness” you may be all too familiar with…

(…And how to break through your current ceiling while building a business that feeds your income, mind, and soul — based on the specific stage you're in right now.)

If you've built a business at (or near) six figures, you'll discover the structural shifts that break the revenue ceiling without adding more hours — and why your business model is what's actually holding you back.

If you're in the business operator plateau ($100K–$500K typically), you'll discover the strategic and identity shifts that let your business grow without you at the center of every decision.

If you're the bottleneck CEO ($500K+ but still the chief problem solver), you'll discover the leadership and communication shifts that turn a team of dependents into a business that can practically run without you.

 

Calm Under Pressure: How High-Pressured Professionals Reset Their Nervous System and Think Clearly in Stressful Environments
Valerie Holden Executive Wellness Coach

High-performing professionals are used to handling pressure, solving problems, and pushing through challenges. But when stress becomes constant, the nervous system can shift into survival mode — making it harder to think clearly, stay focused, and make good decisions.

In this session, Executive Wellness Coach Valerie Holden explains what is actually happening inside the nervous system when pressure builds and why willpower alone doesn’t solve chronic stress.

Participants will learn how to recognize the early signs that their nervous system is becoming overloaded and why many high achievers unknowingly operate in a constant state of stress.

Valerie will introduce simple, practical strategies that help regulate the nervous system, calm the body, and restore mental clarity — even in demanding environments.

Drawing from her experience in law enforcement and coaching high-pressured professionals, Valerie shares tools that can be applied immediately to reduce stress, improve focus, and regain a sense of control.

This session will help participants understand the hidden impact of chronic stress and give them practical ways to reset their nervous system so they can perform at their best without burning out.
