The Holistic Community Professionals (HCP) will hold their first Regional Breakfast/Brunch/Speaker meeting of the new year on January 26 from 11am to 2pm, which will feature Natural Awakenings’ publisher Nicole Miale as the event’s member-speaker. Miale has spent more than a decade supporting holistic business owners in the area as they launch and expand their practices; she will share some “tips and tricks” for success with all the attendees.

“I’m looking forward to the chance to address the group about opportunities available in Natural Awakenings, as well as how being an active member of a group like the HCP supports individual businesses as well as the whole community,” Miale says. “I’ll cover some common missteps I’ve witnessed over the years and provide some specific guidance about getting the most from any marketing you’re putting in place for the new year.”

This networking event includes a full buffet breakfast for all attendees (breakfast must be purchased in advance). The cost is $32 for non-members/guests and $26 for HCP members, which includes sales tax and gratuity. The breakfast menu includes: seasonal sliced fresh fruit, Greek yogurt, housemade granola and muesli, scrambled local farm-raised eggs, crispy applewood smoked bacon, herbed crispy home fried potatoes, orange juice, freshly brewed regular and decaffeinated LavAzza coffee and Mighty Leaf fine teas. Doors will open at 10:30am and there will be a display table available for business cards/brochures.
