What to Expect
The Small Town Social® is a relaxed, free, women-only gathering designed to help grown women make real connections without the awkwardness.
Here’s what the night looks like:
• Casual check-in + name tags
• A warm welcome from Liz
• Guided mingling (light + optional)
• Open conversation all evening
• A community filled with supportive, genuine women
Come as you are. There’s no dress code, no cliques, and no pressure to “perform.” This is a space where women show up honestly and are met with openness.
Your January Sponsor: Built Babe® Fitness
This month’s Social is proudly sponsored by Built Babe® Fitness. Built Babe® Fitness is a health and wellness brand serving women in our community. Founder, Samantha Flaherty, is a NASM-certified personal trainer, has her master’s in nutrition, and is a wife and mom. Built Babe® Fitness is a brand she created for women who are driven but feeling stuck — the ones putting in the effort each week but not seeing the results they deserve. She helps women build muscle, understand their macros, and create a lifestyle they can maintain long term.
Samantha specializes in strength training, nutrition through knowledge rather than restriction, and true accountability. Through her coaching programs and online community, she has built Built Babe® Fitness into a space centered on strength, confidence, and real-life balance.
Sponsors help make our free events possible through their support and we’re so grateful.
