This gathering is hosted by the Utah Women’s Investing Club.

Maven is donating space to support their work and help make this conversation accessible to our community. We’re grateful to partner with organizations like this that create opportunities for women to learn, connect, and grow together.

Am I better off managing my investments myself… or working with a Financial Planner? Join us for a conversation with Tracey Dean, CFP®, EA.

At some point in your investing journey, a question usually comes up:

Should I be doing this on my own… or would it be wiser to bring in support?

There’s no universal answer. And there shouldn’t be.

For this gathering, we’re welcoming Tracey S. Dean, CFP®, EA, who brings more than 15 years of experience helping women align investing with thoughtful strategy.

Tracey is known for making complex topics make sense — not by oversimplifying them, but by helping women understand what actually matters.

Together, we’ll explore:

• When managing your own investments can feel empowering
• When professional guidance can add perspective
• How to decide what fits your goals, temperament, and life stage

This won’t be about convincing you one way or the other.

It will be about helping you think more clearly, so whatever you choose feels intentional.

As always, this space is built for independent women who value thoughtful decisions, steady confidence, and honest conversation.

Writing has a quiet way of helping us understand ourselves.

In a world that often moves quickly and asks much of us, writing can offer a moment to pause—to reflect, process, and make meaning of the lives we are living.

Join us at Maven for Writing From Within, a guided writing gathering led by award-winning journalist and storyteller Amy Donaldson.

Amy has spent nearly three decades as a reporter, covering everything from the Olympics to local communities. Along the way, journaling became more than just recording events—it became a way to process life, learn from experiences, and hold onto what truly matters.

During this gathering, Amy will guide participants through a series of thoughtful writing prompts designed to help you reflect on your life, explore personal stories, and reconnect with what feels meaningful right now.

This is not a writing class and no writing experience is required.

It is simply a space to pause, write, think, and reflect—within the shared energy of community.

Throughout the evening, participants will be invited to explore prompts that encourage curiosity, self-awareness, and creativity. Writing is approached without rules or judgment—simply as a tool for reflection and expression.

The evening will begin with a short Meet the Moment presence practice to help everyone settle before moving into guided writing sessions.

Whether you write every day or haven’t picked up a journal in years, you’re warmly welcome here.

What You’ll Walk Away With

Participants can expect to leave with:

• New writing prompts and journaling practices you can return to anytime for reflection and clarity

• A deeper understanding of how writing can help process life, make meaning of experiences, and reconnect with what matters

• Permission to write without rules or judgment, approaching writing as a tool for curiosity, expression, and growth

• A sense of calm and perspective that can come from pausing, reflecting, and putting words to what you’re experiencing

Charity Partnership

This gathering will support Community Animal Welfare Society (CAWS), one of Utah’s oldest volunteer-based animal rescues.

CAWS is a foster-based rescue organization that places dogs and cats in loving homes while they wait to find their permanent families. No staff are paid—everything is powered by volunteers who care deeply for animals in need.

A portion of proceeds from this event will be donated to support their work.

Reclaiming Pleasure Through Presence is a women’s workshop exploring sexuality and pleasure as practices of self-awareness, nervous system nourishment, and embodied curiosity.

In many ways, desire is a form of guidance. Yet many women were never taught how to listen to the signals of their own body—let alone trust them.

This evening offers a thoughtful, grounded space to explore those signals.

Led by clinician and intimacy coach Stormy Hill of Love Deep Lab, this gathering blends neuroscience, embodiment, and practical tools to help women reconnect with their desires, boundaries, and pleasure in ways that feel clear, safe, and authentic.

The evening unfolds in two parts:

Part One: Desire Mapping
Participants will reflect on the internal signals that shape attraction, curiosity, boundaries, and connection—building language around what they truly want.

Part Two: Pleasure Expansion
Stormy will introduce simple “micro-reps”—small daily practices that help cultivate pleasure, presence, and nervous system regulation in everyday life.

This experience is designed to feel playful, thoughtful, and grounded in nervous system safety, offering practical tools you can integrate immediately.

We’ll open the evening with a short Meet the Moment presence practice to settle the room and close with a brief circle before transitioning back into community.

What You’ll Walk Away With

Participants can expect to leave with:

• 3–4 simple, science-backed practices to increase pleasure and nervous system regulation
• Clearer language for communicating desires and boundaries
• A deeper sense of comfort talking about sexuality in a trusted women’s space
• Practical ways to bring more presence and pleasure into daily life

Breath Journey is a music-guided breathwork experience designed to help participants access clarity, emotional release, and deeper connection with themselves.

Breath has long been used as a powerful tool for regulating the nervous system, processing emotions, and reconnecting with the body. Yet many of us move through our days breathing shallowly and unconsciously, disconnected from one of the most accessible tools for presence and awareness.

This gathering offers a grounded and supportive space to explore what becomes possible when we intentionally work with the breath.

Led in partnership with Sofia Gorder, Owner & Co-Founder of FERAL STATE, this experience combines guided breathwork, music, and reflection to create a container for exploration that feels both expansive and safe. Each session is carefully structured to support meaningful experiences without overwhelm.

The evening unfolds in three parts:

Settle & Ground
Participants arrive, settle into the space, and set a personal intention for the session with a short Meet the Moment presence practice. This opening helps regulate the nervous system and prepare the body for breathwork.

Activate & Explore
Through guided breathing techniques and music, participants will move through an immersive breathwork journey designed to awaken awareness in the body and invite emotional clarity and insight.

Integrate & Reflect
The experience closes with time for integration through journaling, quiet reflection, or optional sharing before returning gently back into community.

What You’ll Walk Away With

Participants can expect to leave with:

• A deeper understanding of how breath can support emotional release and nervous system regulation
• Tools for using intentional breathing to reconnect with the body and mind
• A felt sense of calm, clarity, and renewed presence
• A shared experience of exploration and connection within a supportive community

This is Maven’s private digital community—a space to slow down, reconnect to yourself, and grow alongside women who value both heart and head.

Rooted in love and curiosity, this network offers conversation, reflection, shared resources, and real connection beyond performance. Here, self and community are not separate paths. They move side by side.
