GLOWCON
A full-day gathering in Pinehurst, NC designed for women like you who are eager to expand your horizons and live more in alignment with who you really are so you can experience more joy, fulfillment, confidence and meaningful connection in your life.
This guided event helps women from all walks of life deepen the connections they have with themselves AND others. It’s a day dedicated to forming friendships that last and filling a room full of laughter and light so you can take your natural next step forward however YOU see fit. GLOWCON helps you feel like you belong and build a community that suits you, while helping you feel seen as the remarkable human you already are.
Eager to expand your horizons and achieve alignment in your life?
This is your chance to unleash your YOU and connect with fellow females who can become your best cheerleaders.
After decades of attending events, I finally created the one I wanted to attend. The one that would give me a safe space to be ALL THE WAY MYSELF and not the version of me that was just business woman, mom, military spouse, [insert whatever other title]. I wanted to create a gathering that felt like a full-on self-care day where I could be surrounded by other kick@$$ women who want to shine their light.
But, above all, I want to help you…
Embrace that “ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE” energy!
MAYBE YOU’RE…
Feeling lonely and isolated in your day-to-day life.
Longing to make genuine connections in person without the pressure of partying or drinking alcohol.
Interested in meeting other like-minded women your age but just aren’t sure how or where to turn.
Shy and often dread going to events or social gatherings alone around town.
Frustrated, bored, drained, and feeling absolutely overwhelmed by social media.
Struggling to find the right support.
THAT ENDS HERE, K?
Get ready to G.L.O.W., girl.
A gathering for women to grow, learn, connect, and win together under one roof for one whole day.

This is a conference GATHERING
There are a lot of events, conferences, summits, trainings + workshops out there right now.

This isn't general advice for everyone. Every single offering is specialized and unique to women.
It’s a gathering for women who are eager to expand their horizons + live in alignment with who they really are so they can experience more joy, passion + purpose in life + build an amazing team of cheerleaders along the way.
GLOWCON helps all women feel seen as the remarkable human beings they already are, regardless of circumstance.
Elements like amazing food, music, learning, goodies, connections, activities make it fun. The unique experience you get from being guided on this journey + in this way is what makes it DIFFERENT.

This event supports all women, not just moms, military spouses or business owners. Our goal with this event is to help you deepen the relationship you have with yourself AND others.

HECK YES!! This day is designed for YOU to boldly step into YOUR purpose and find new connections along the way (that doesn't mean you have to come with a ton of them).
Come alone or with a couple of girlfriends - whatever feels right for you! We don’t do cliquey. The Small Town Social® is a supportive community of women who build each other up, not tear each other down. If you see women chatting and laughing together on-site, JOIN THEM. Most times, they just met each other for the first time too :)

There is a room on-site that can be used as a private lactation space for guests who need to pump or nurse during our event.
Babies are welcome in this private lactation space for breastfeeding purposes only. It is not a playroom.
Babies and children are not permitted inside the show / main room as it will distract from the day’s program.
There is a separate entrance to the private lactation space, a bathroom, as well as a refrigerator / full kitchen on-site for your drop off/pick up, storage, and sanitation needs. You are in charge of bringing all of your own pumping supplies, including labels for the refrigerator (so there are no mixups with catering!).
We recommend coordinating childcare coverage for the day so you can enjoy the full day’s immersion.
If there’s anything else we can do to help make this space more comfortable for you, please contact us: hello@thesmalltownsocial.com.
