Motivate: Rise + Reconnect

Motivate Me: Rise + Reconnect ☀️ This special sunrise experience is an opportunity to slow down, tune in + reconnect with the person who matters most...YOU. As the sun rises over the ocean, we’ll move through guided reflection + intention using journaling, visualization + manifestation, led by self-love guide + Motivate.® member Lisa Tracy. This isn’t about becoming a “better” or more perfect version of yourself. It’s about connecting with your most authentic YOU—honoring where you’ve been, getting clear on where you are + getting excited about where you’re going. For 60 minutes, pause, reflect + discover ways to choose yourself a little more each day. Come with an open mind + an open heart. Your best days can begin right here. At sunrise. With YOU. Bring a chair or towel, journal + pen. Meet us on the beach next to GroundSwell in Salisbury.

Sunday Social Experiment: Device-Free Connection Adventure
Sep

Sunday Social Experiment: Device-Free Connection Adventure

Join Portsmouth's experiment in putting humans back in human connection. After a week of screen fatigue and digital "connections," discover what face-to-face conversation feels like when strangers become real people, not profile pictures. WALK-INS WELCOME!

What You'll Experience

THE ADVENTURE:

  • Complete device-free environment for 3 hours

  • Conversation prompt cards to use during the event and take home

  • Optional 3-minute guided conversation experiences with adventure-themed prompts

  • Free participation - just show up ready to connect

Why Treeline?

Treeline Outfitters believes that adventure begins with connection - to nature, community, and one another. As both taproom and outfitter, they create spaces where people gather before and after outdoor adventures. With craft beverages (including low-ABV and non-alcoholic options), Treeline is the perfect Third Space for authentic community building.

What You'll Leave With

  • New connections with fellow Portsmouth community members

  • Conversation skills that work everywhere - from family dinners to workplace interactions

  • Sunday energy that actually prepares you for Monday instead of dreading it

  • Take-home conversation prompts to spark authentic connections anywhere

The Experience

This isn't networking, therapy, or forced team-building. It's an experiment in what happens when we put our devices away and remember what genuine human connection feels like. Whether you're new to Portsmouth, looking to meet like-minded people, or simply curious about authentic conversation, this experience is designed for anyone ready to trade screen time for real time.

Device Management: This is a device-free experience. On arrival, phones go into our device-free lockbox for the duration of the session, so you can be fully present with the people in the room. Prefer to leave your device at home? We love that too. If you need to step out to check your phone, just let a facilitator know.

Ready to beat the Sunday Scaries with real human connection? Join us for Portsmouth's most adventurous social experiment.

Join us for this fun, casual networking opportunity. This is your chance to meet other like-minded women in business in a setting that allows YOU to be YOU! Our low-structure meet-up encourages natural conversation that leads to REAL connections. Come make new friends who are bringing success to a whole new level and want to help you EXCEL!

The agenda is simple -- your host, Jenny O'Dell, will guide you through simple introductions and share how our group can help you make valuable connections all month long, followed by open conversations over coffee where you can share all about your business -- the way women NATURALLY network! You will leave feeling empowered and ready to tackle the rest of the week!

Meet that new connection that will take you to the next level. Be inspired by someone else's story. Get realtime advice and suggestions from other women in business. Find a friend who can teach you the new skill you need (or didn't know you need!). Get the inside scoop from women who have succeeded before you. The possibilities are endless -- magic happens when women collaborate and connect.

Each attendee is responsible for their own food/drink purchases. NO OUTSIDE food/drink may be brought into the venue. Thank you.

Guest Tickets ($0) are reserved for those who are NEW to Excelerate HER attending as a FIRST-TIME GUEST. After your first event, access ALL of our events by joining membership at www.excelerateherbiz.com, or if membership is not right for you at this time, you're welcome to pay-per-event at the “Regular Admission” price.

ABOUT YOUR HOST:

Jenny O'Dell specializes in working with individuals who have been feeling lost to themselves, weary from their journey, and are longing to be found through a more compassionate and complete way. She focusses on easing your nervous system out of fight-and-flight and into rest-and-restore so that you can live your life to your fullest potential and get back to being authentically YOU.

Jenny graduated from the Muscular Therapy Institute in Watertown, MA in 2007. After having her first child in 2009 and enduring several life challenges in the years to follow -- she began to feel herself drifting away and the pieces that were left were frayed and raw. It was by chance that she was introduced to Bowenwork in 2020. And after learning to live in alignment, her passion for this modality and the impact she knew it could have on others who are struggling as she had struggled, lead her to open her own practice in 2020.

Today she serves as a guide for her clients, combining her skills in each session in a very intentional way to help them reclaim and redesign their lives.

Camp She Flows

Details

September 25th - 27th Starting at 4 PM on the 25th, ending 2 PM on the 27th Bethel Farm, Hillsborough NH

Just imagine…

You turn onto a quiet road, trees stretching overhead, and your shoulders are already starting to drop. You arrive not knowing exactly what to expect but within minutes, you’re connecting with other women and feel right at home. Soon enough, you’re jumping in the pond, warming up in the sauna, dancing under the full harvest moon, wandering to a waterfall, moving your body, and telling stories by the fire with s’mores.

You’re resting when you need to, playing when you want to, and realizing how good it feels to be. Somewhere between the movement, the stillness, and the in-between moments, you feel like yourself again. You belong to the earth, to this community, to yourself. And it’s everything.

Welcome to Camp She Flows ✨

Signature Connection Experience
Sep

Signature Connection Experience

In a world full of small talk and screen time, when was the last time you had a conversation you actually remembered? At Third Space Experiences, we're creating space for the kinds of connections that fill you up instead of just keeping you busy.

What to expect

Put your phone away for 90+ minutes and discover what happens when you connect with others as your authentic self, not just your daily roles. Through three rounds of guided conversation in small groups, you'll explore how stories have shaped who you are, how we truly connect with others, and what makes you uniquely you.

This isn't networking. This isn't icebreakers or small talk. This is meaningful conversation using professionally designed prompts that help people connect beyond their daily roles.

You'll leave with

  • Conversations and connections you'll actually remember

  • New perspectives from people you just met

  • Tools for deeper connection anywhere

  • That rare feeling of being truly seen

The essentials

  • Device-free experience (we secure your phone)

  • All conversation comfort levels welcome

  • $25 per ticket, $15 early-bird tickets available

  • 25 spots only - no walk-ins

Each ticket includes one pour, courtesy of our venue partner North Country Hard Cider. Choose from 20 hard ciders on tap or a non-alcoholic option. Please note that outside beverages (except water bottles) are not permitted.

Ready to skip the small talk and connect for real?

Put your phone away for 90 minutes and discover what happens when you connect with others as your authentic self, not just your daily roles. Through three rounds of guided conversation in small groups, you'll explore how stories have shaped who you are, how we truly connect with others, and what makes you uniquely you.
