finer details
WHEN:
Friday 6th December
As we closed out 2024, we took time to honour the journey we shared together and celebrate you — the modern woman. We held space for you to forge genuine connections and engage in game-changing conversation (with plenty of time for you to unwind and share a toast in celebration of yourself and one another, too).
This event saw our entire community come together - from the founders, to the mothers, and everyone in between.
We came together at The Vita Nova on Friday 6 December to celebrate our community in style, while forging genuine connections, engaging in meaningful conversation, and reflecting on the wins from an unforgettable year. A generous drinks package, gourmet canapés, plus insights and inspiration from one of Australia’s most prominent female founders and podcast hosts, Georgie Stevenson, were amongst the inclusions of this special night.
This was be an interactive, immersive experience as we shared a toast and celebrated the year that was, while looking towards a new year filled with new possibilities. In true HSWG style, the details made the difference: with a live DJ and incredible prizes on offer, we enjoyed ample time for networking, connection activities, and plenty of surprises along the way.
