Nearly 40 WiseWomen gathered at Vectra Bank’s stunning headquarters to connect, laugh, and set the stage for an exciting 2025! The evening was filled with energy, lively games, and deep conversations.

We were inspired by our speakers DJ Whetter, CEO of CiviCO, our incredible program leadership team, and cohort leaders.

Key Takeaways:

🌟 Endless opportunities to cultivate meaningful relationships—through Dine Arounds, Wine Arounds, community events, and signature programs like the WiseWomen Retreat (May) and Tea (December).
🌟 A powerful network of accomplished, leadership-oriented women who support and inspire growth.
🌟 Take advantage of the free, topical member events through monthly CiviCO Purpose Hours.
🌟 We heard an inspirational journey through the history of WiseWomen—from its origins in the 1990s to the present day—beautifully shared by our self-proclaimed “historian” and storyteller, Kathy Lawless.
🌟 Room for growth! We are always on the lookout for like-minded, accomplished women to invite into our network. If you know a gem, reach out to the Ambassador Cohort!

With a year full of possibilities ahead, WiseWomen 2025 is set to be a year of connection, growth, and unforgettable moments!

Ann Sparks

 I was once again named to the 2025 Forbes Top Women Wealth Advisors for Colorado.

Eleanor Allen

I would like to introduce my new company that I launched in December with 3 business partners – The World Flourishing Organization. Our purpose is to boost the performance of organizations and individuals and improve societal wellbeing by helping people flourish at work. 

Shannon Saviers

I join the leadership team of 50/50 Women on Boards Denver Event coming this May.

Stacey Frank

I made the trek to Kilimanjaro (and back!) at the end of January.  Kilimanjaro is the highest point in Africa and is one of the largest free-standing mountains in the world – so different than the ranges here in Colorado!  My husband and I took the trip to celebrate becoming empty-nesters. See pictures in the gallery!

UPCOMING EVENTS INFO

1st Quarter Dine Around

This year we are mixing things up a bit. Since these are very popular events, we want to encourage co-hosting and suggest that experienced hostesses pair with a newer member to hold one of these monthly events. The newer member will facilitate the theme or table topic for the event while serving as co-hostess. 

Please reach out to Tammy Johnson or Linda Streeter to express hosting interest.  We do our best to pick hostesses from all throughout the metro area.

February 11th – Return to Denver Children’s Home to cook for the kids and make Valentine’s decorations/cards.

March 27th  – Melissa Poole-Knight will be hosting a charcuterie making party at her place. You’ll nibble on tasty sample trays while making one of your own to take home! 

1st Quarter Social Event

February 8th – Colorado Ballet Experience and a private champagne welcome reception/tour.
