Host Your Own
Barefoot Businesswomen's Gathering
Compassionate business women's brunches in your home
Bring the conversation to your place... you share your table, I'll facilitate and cater!
Melbourne Suburbs - Small Group Alternative Networking
Your local compassionate businesswomen’s community around your table
Facilitated by me, Victoria Maxwell-Davis
Maybe you've been to one of our Northcote events, or wish you could make it to one, but it's a bit too far or on a day that doesn't work for you…. or maybe you’ve just discovered us and are curious …
However you got here, you may already have a taste of what's so special about the Barefoot Businesswomen's Network.
And now you can bring that same energy closer. In fact, to your home.
There's something intimate and trusting that happens when you invite people into your personal space. Personally, popping up in a noisy local cafe or hosting events in sterile library meeting rooms doesn’t float my boat.
This is about genuine, easy connection, a peaceful vibe, and dropping the artifice … and it doesn't get more real than an in-home experience.
And it means that wherever YOU are, you can access this rare type of event that Barefoot Businesswomen's Network provides.
I bring the whole facilitated and catered experience to you.
If you're tired of networking events that feel like performance art, where everyone's pitching and no one's really listening, you already know why the barefoot approach feels different.
Hosting in your home creates space for exactly that kind of authentic connection with women who share your values, right in your own area.
Why Your Home Changes Everything
When you invite women into your personal space, something shifts. The polite networking smile drops. People settle in differently. There's room for the kind of honesty that builds actual trust between businesswomen.
Your lounge room or dining table becomes a sanctuary for the kind of business talk that actually matters. No corporate meeting rooms, no travel time, no rushing. Just the comfort of your own space where deeper connections naturally unfold.
What This Creates for You
Stronger local relationships - Get to know the businesswomen in your area on a deeper level
Natural referral network - When people truly understand what you do and how you work, referrals become effortless
Community leadership - Position yourself as someone who brings people together
Access to support - Build your own circle of women who genuinely have your back

(I would like to keep the urn hot on your power)
What Makes This Real
This isn't about having the perfect Insta-worthy home. We're all real women with real lives and real mess. There's no shame here, only compassion and gratitude for the generosity of opening your space.
Your dining table cleared off, some chairs arranged, and your beautiful willingness to connect women in your community. That's all we need.
The magic happens in the conversations, not the décor.
The Experience You'll Create
I facilitate gentle conversations around the topics that matter to creative and compassionate businesswomen. No pitching, no pressure, no forced networking. Just space for women to be real about their business journeys, share challenges, celebrate wins, and discover how they can support each other.
Your guests leave feeling seen, supported, and more connected to their local business community. You've given them something genuinely valuable.
Three pricing tiers keep it accessible for all the women in your network.
