Emily Atlantis Wolf presents
Connected Queens Conference
Girls Weekend meets Business Mastermind
Drury Plaza Hotel, Cleveland, Ohio
Oct 16-18, 2026
If your sprinkle woo into your work, this is the room for you.
Maybe you pull a card in the morning to set the tone for the day; maybe you use your intuition before accepting a virtual coffee invitation, or open your Akashic Records before signing a contract. Welcome, Sister.
And if you want to know where to start and how to blend spiritual insight into professional success, this is also the room for you.
Meet other soul-led professionals who are bringing their unique magic to their clients in a big way or sometimes less-obvious ways. Quiet magic is also a business skill.
Imagine being in a room with 40 women who know exactly how you feel - striving to be successful in isolation. We are stronger as a community. By sharing our experiences and knowledge, we accelerate each other’s growth. We rise as one.
Welcome to the Connected Queens Conference, an illuminating weekend for women in business.
Unique in Three (ok, Five)Ways
1- Networking needs nurturing.
We have two hours at lunch, two hours before dinner, and time between speakers devoted to organic, collaborative conversations.
2- Learn from exceptional speakers
The focus is on inspired action, not zoning out to 100 summit speakers. We have engaging, electric, professional presentations with real-world takeaways that you can apply to your business.
3- Private Directory
No need to worry about grabbing business cards, we have a directory with name, company, category, social link, and scheduling link. Private and only available to registered participants. Relax and enjoy the conversations. We’ll take care of follow-up.
Bonus - One Event = A Year’s Worth of Networking
It takes multiple conversations to decide how you and your business contacts can serve each other. Here, those conversations happen in three days, saving you endless zoom coffee chats and email exchanges. This is the antidote to AI trawling and cold reach outs.
Super Bonus - Your Business Needs This. So do you.
In this economy, networking is a survival skill. We can’t work alone and succeed. This is the year your business needs to be nimble and react to the fast-paced change. Or be left behind. Join us and find your joy again. The world needs your unique skills. We’ve got you.

Insights for the audience:
In her talk, “The 3 Dials That Activate Income, Influence, and Collective Power,” Lena will show why some women keep working harder yet feel capped, while others expand faster with less force.
You will walk away understanding:
Why working harder is not the answer. You will see why income often stalls even when you are doing everything right and how energetic alignment quietly regulates how much success you can actually hold.
The hidden identity pattern that keeps capable women playing smaller than they intend. You will learn how old success scripts appear in pricing, visibility, and decision making and how to spot them in your own business.
The three dials that truly drive results. When these three are aligned, growth becomes faster, clearer, and far less exhausting.
Why some rooms change your trajectory and others drain it. You will understand how proximity, environment, and shared ambition dramatically accelerate opportunities, confidence, and influence.
How collective power multiplies individual success. Not just networking, but being surrounded by women who think bigger, move faster, and see your next level before you do.
