Mentoring Think-Tank
A space for new and emerging entrepreneurs to workshop their ideas with a panel of professional women
Some of the best business breakthroughs happen when you stop trying to figure it out alone and put your idea in front of women who have already been there.
That's the heart of the Mentoring Think-Tank, a free afternoon co-hosted by Mentoring MUSE and Hudson Valley Women in Business. New and emerging entrepreneurs bring a real question or idea they're working through, and a panel of accomplished women responds with honest feedback, experience, and resources you can actually use.
Come to workshop your own idea, or come to give back as a volunteer panelist and share the guidance that helped you get where you are. Either way, you leave with new connections and a clearer next step.

The ways we’ve learned to earn a living no longer feel certain. Building a business can feel overwhelming. Creative dreams get stifled or put on hold as we search for solid ground.
As we’ve been sitting with these questions ourselves, we’ve become increasingly curious about what lies beneath our personal and collective relationship with money, creativity, and abundance.
What if what stands in our way isn’t a lack of talent or vision, but the hidden beliefs, loyalties, and patterns we’ve inherited from our families and the larger systems that shaped us?
That’s why Masha Zolotarsky and I created Unlocking Prosperity, a Family & Systemic Constellation workshop where we’ll explore these deeper dynamics through an embodied and systemic lens.
Whether you’re exploring your relationship with money and receiving, navigating a career transition, growing a business, longing to reconnect with your creativity, or simply curious about Family & Systemic Constellations, we’d love to welcome you.
Sunday, August 9 | 3-7 pm
The Lace Mill, Kingston
Suggested contribution: $60-$80

That quiet voice inside you-the one that nudges, whispers, or tugs at your heart- that’s your intuition. This is a night to actually practice listening to it.
We’ll drop into the body, clear some energy, and pair up for oracle card readings where you’ll practice both giving and receiving intuitive messages (no experience needed, promise).
It’s an interactive, supportive women’s circle- you’ll walk away with more trust in yourself and a little more clarity on how to hear your own inner wisdom.
