NAMASTE, PARLAY

EVENT DETAILS

We get it. This holiday season feels different than usual. To help bring lightness and give you room to breathe during this crazy time, we hope you’ll join our first ever Parlay House Yoga Tuesday.

Led by our own NYC member, wellness leader, and yoga instructor Jenna Roth, we will stretch and move our way to a feeling of being grounded and grateful.

This will be a relaxing and beginner-friendly practice. All are welcome so grab your mat, invite a friend who could use some time for herself, and find some space to stretch out with us. It’s fine to keep your cameras off if that makes the experience more centered for you.

Share with a Friend

Founder & CEO of @argent Sali Christeson @salichri

Founder & CEO of @argent Sali Christeson @salichristeson was frustrated by the lack of functional workwear options for women.

So what did she do? She pivoted.

She left behind her corporate career to disrupt the fashion industry and help women discover their confidence.

So how can we, like Sali, shift our clothing to reflect our shift in values? We’re going to talk about it at Parlay House DC!

Sali will be joining us alongside Joan Michelson @joanmichelsondc, host of the acclaimed Electric Ladies Podcast and Forbes columnist, at our extra special upcoming Parlay House DC gathering on June 24th!

They’ll share great insight into our changing identities and how they are reflected in the way we dress.

We will be joined by the remarkable Natasha Tsakos @natashatsakos - a show maker and entrepreneur who focuses on creating theatrical experiences that blend fantasy, technology, and liberating performances.

Natasha once said: “We can’t fear the future with a present mindset. We must ask ourselves questions we do not know the answers to, to invent. We should disrupt ourselves to grow.” And that’s exactly the plan for our first Parlay House Miami event! ⚡️

Join us at our next Parlay House NYC gathering where we’re welcoming Nzingha Prescod @nzinghap, one of the most decorated athletes in USA fencing history! 🤺

In 2015, she became the first Black woman to win an individual medal at the Senior World Championships, and she’s also the first American woman to win a foil Grand Prix. Even without role models in her demographic, Nzingha managed to make it all happen.

Now she is on a mission to expand access to inclusive and high-quality sports education so that more kids like her can have access to the coaching, and teamwork that transforms aspiring athletes into confident adults both on and off the field.

Stop scrolling! It's time to take a pause 🧘‍♀️

Our friend Kirat Randhawa @kiratrandhawaaa joined us LIVE for a much-needed breathwork exercise that left us feeling more centered and calm.

Kirat is an incredible woman who transformed her career in fashion to a career in teaching people how to pause, breathe, and refocus their energy to live a more well-rounded life. We are so thankful she joined us today!

We're so excited to share a taste of the open and inspiring conversations we have at our events and Parlay From Away gatherings, so stay tuned for more IG Lives where we'll go deep, get real, and find connections that lift us. 🌟

When our friend Harriett Jernigan was 33, her worl

When our friend Harriett Jernigan was 33, her world was shaken by the dissolution of her 12-year relationship.

This life-altering event and the aftermath that followed taught her three invaluable things:

✨ Sometimes the best thing two people can do for each other is part ways.

✨ Change does not occur without discomfort.

✨ People are not simply what we see, but the sum of their stories.

We all face life-altering transitions at some point in our lives, and these shifts can be difficult, uncomfortable, and even painful. We are grateful to glean wisdom from women like Harriett, who joined us at Parlay House SF last week to share her insights on embracing adventure and overcoming fear in pursuit of self-discovery 💛

THIS is what it looks like when women come together to unlock their true potential ⚡️

We were elated to be joined by visionary educator and captivating storyteller, Harriett Jernigan, for an evening of self-discovery and empowerment at Parlay House SF!

Drawing from her rich academic background and extensive experience living and teaching abroad, Harriett illuminated a path to courage and self-discovery and shared her insights on embracing adventure and overcoming fear.

Her unique perspective and powerful storytelling also revealed how the simple act of “writing a better story” has not only transformed her own life but has led to incredible experiences beyond imagination.

We had such an incredible evening filled with empowering conversations and it’s safe to saw we all left feeling encouraged to embark on a journey of personal growth and fulfillment! 💛

What happens when women from all walks of life gat

What happens when women from all walks of life gather to discuss topics they’re curious about, issues or concerns they’re facing, and success stories that lift them?

Parlay House member Cari Guittard shares her take...

“I went to my first event and found that the gathering was unusually deep and surprisingly powerful. I attended another and another and then started bringing friends and colleagues who I thought would also benefit from this supported and interested gathering of women. More and more women, from all walks of life, started to attend. The topics of discussion were always different, featuring amazing and inspiring women who would share their stories and lessons in salon-style fashion (sitting on the couch and speaking intimately and openly).”

THIS is what happens when inspirational women come together to connect, grow, learn and thrive ✨ Together we are taking our life experiences and “parlaying” them in new directions.

We hope you’ll join us in person or online for authentic conversations that go deep, get real, and broach topics we don’t get to talk about in other areas of our lives. And of course, don’t forget to bring a friend! 👯‍♀️

How well do you know yourself? Most of us already

How well do you know yourself?

Most of us already have insight into who we are and how we interact with others. But even with that self-awareness, there’s room to improve how we put ourselves forward in the world.

That’s where the Enneagram comes in.

As a certified Enneagram practitioner, Ali Dunn discovered that understanding and using the test results to your advantage can completely transform your relationship with yourself and others!

How the Enneagram changed her life:
✨ When I understood WHY I do the things I do, it helped me become more present and improve areas in both my professional and personal life.
✨ Perception is everything. We all perceive things differently based on our enneagram types and our human experiences!
✨ I learned how to accept my strengths and weaknesses and use them to improve myself as a mom, partner, and businesswoman.

Ali recently joined us at Parlay House SF to share her unique approach to using the Enneagram to help women recognize their power and step into it ⚡️

How can we release ourselves from outside noise and discover authentic inner peace?

Our friend Kirat Randhawa might just have the answer.

As a meditation instructor and an inspired student of Tibetan Buddhism, Kirat is no stranger to the transformative and transcendent work of the mind, body, and soul.

Her own painful and winding path led her on a journey to the most peaceful place possible - finding home within herself.

We think her sense of calm will rub off on you, so we hope you’ll join us LIVE on Instagram next Thursday 4/18, where we’ll uncover the power of the pause! ✨

It’s so easy for us to get caught up in the hams

It’s so easy for us to get caught up in the hamster wheel of constantly trying to outdo ourselves that we often forget to pause and really acknowledge our accomplishments.

Sometimes we even find ourselves afraid of celebrating our wins to avoid coming across as braggy or egotistical.

But taking a moment to celebrate our successes (both big and small) allows for self-reflection and satisfaction that can translate to higher motivation in the long run. Plus, celebrating your own success or that of others (friends, family or even coworkers) can strengthen and deepen your relationships!

How do you celebrate your wins? Share with us below 👇

What do you do when there’s a complete disconnect between who you are and how you are being asked to live?

At Parlay House NYC, we welcomed one of our very own to share her story of breaking away and rising above. ⚡️

Elizabeth DiCandilo broke herself out of the ultra-religious community that she was born into and has used that rebirth as a model for constant evolution, reinvention, and growth.

Despite all attempts to silence her, she found her voice, and we are so grateful that she joined us for this raw and real chat! The incredible conversation provided us with a view into the impact that extreme, male-dominated religious sects have on the women within the community.

Thank you again, Elizabeth for joining us and igniting such a powerful conversation that few of us have had a place to discuss. 💛

From the outside, Trisha Bright was the woman who

From the outside, Trisha Bright was the woman who seemed to have it all—success, stuff, status—yet, beneath it all, she was deeply unhappy.

When a job loss shattered her seemingly “perfect life,” she was forced to face the painful truth behind her dissatisfaction. Despite following “the script” for a happy life, she knew something was missing...

Trisha shared three invaluable lessons she learned during her personal growth journey:

✨ Honor your needs and trust your intuition - it will change everything.

✨ Instead of avoiding or numbing out your emotions, use them as a compass for making aligned decisions. Embracing your feelings as a guide can be transformative!

✨ Learning how to manage your mind and making it your BFF is a total game changer when it comes to unlocking happiness and everything else you desire in life.

If you’ve gleaned knowledge from your own unexpected life shifts, we’d love for you to share it with us! You never know who may be in the same boat as you and could get a boost from your words of wisdom 💛

Trailblazing feminist thought leader and advocate,

Trailblazing feminist thought leader and advocate, Kara Loewentheil, shares the 3 things she’s learned about her brain as a feminist mindset coach:

① Many of my thoughts are not true. They are lies that society taught me to think that hold me back and keep me playing small (or smaller than I could be, even if I’m objectively successful).

② No amount of external accomplishments or changing my circumstances will change my thoughts and feelings. That is an inside job, and I have to do the work myself.

③ I can take back my brain by training it to think new thoughts that I have chosen for myself - thoughts that help me show up in the world as my powerful, authentic self.

JOIN US for a groundbreaking Parlay From Away this Thursday 4/4 where Kara will unveil the revolutionary concepts behind her work, shedding light on how societal norms and sexist messages shape women’s thoughts and behaviors. She will guide us through the process of rewiring our thought patterns to cultivate authentic confidence and self-empowerment from within.

Whether you’re seeking to break free from societal expectations or simply looking to reclaim ownership of your mind, Kara will equip you with the tools and insights needed to take control of your destiny and thrive in a world that too often seeks to limit your potential. We can’t wait to see you there ✨

We took to the stage in SF for another fun-filled and feminist Parlay Petite! We gathered for an improv show hosted by @batsimprov: THE BECHDEL TEST | Spotlighting Women ✨

One of the performers is our fabulous Parlay House member and previous speaker, Rebecca Stockley. This original show, created by Lisa Rowland, featured a mostly female cast and put multidimensional, fully fleshed-out, and complicated female characters front and center.

The Bechdel Test (coined by Alison Bechdel) asks three simple questions: 1) Are there two women in the story? 2) Do they ever talk to each other? 3) About something other than a man?

Huge thank you to Parlay House SF instigator, Jackie Kleinman, for hosting this Petite! 💛

We are inspired every day by the women that make up our community, but who are the women that shaped and lifted them?

This Women’s History Month, we asked Parlay House: “Who are the women, past or present, that have inspired you?”

From mothers, sisters, and friends, to powerful public figures and trailblazing women in history, we are so in awe of the impact these women have had not only on our members but women all around the world!

We want to know more about the women who have inspired you! Share with us below 👇

We’re at a monumental moment in history for women.

There’s a wave of energy propelling us to use our voices, redefine our roles, influence the future, and bring to life the vast potential we sense within ourselves as well as an aligned group.

But with all of this potential power (and global need), many of us aren’t quite sure how to harness what’s available to us and choose the right path.

Life coach, serial entrepreneur, and former corporate executive, Trisha Bright, joined us in East Bay to share her insights on the things that seem to hold women back and how to break through them so that we can create lives of impact, meaning, and happiness.

Trisha is certified in Woman-Centered Coaching and is on a mission to help women become the very best versions of themselves. We were so inspired by the discussion she sparked for us here at Parlay House!

We're live with Sierra Hooshiari @sierra_misstt of @brainpopdrink 🫧✨

In case you missed it, tune in now to Anne's chat with Sierra, where they talked Brain Injury to Brain Pop: The Birth of a New-age Beverage!

After suffering a life-altering brain injury during her sophomore year of college, Sierra set out on a mission to create a nutritional beverage that could help support cognitive function.

She enlisted the help of experts and neuroscientists to research, develop, and launch BrainPOP - a fizzy beverage blended with botanical caffeine, amino acids, vitamins and minerals.

The drink's tagline "#DrinkToThink" reflects Sierra's hope that BrainPOP will bring people together through brain health awareness and become a catalyst for deeper discussions around nutrition and mental well-being in our communities.

We're so excited to share a taste of the open and inspiring conversations we have at our events and Parlay From Away gatherings, so stay tuned for more IG Lives where we'll go deep, get real, and find connections that lift us. 🌟

When school was banned for girls in Afghanistan, S

When school was banned for girls in Afghanistan, Shabana Basij-Rasikh envisioned a brighter future and took immense risks to educate herself, and others. In 2008, she founded the School of Leadership, Afghanistan (@sola.afghanistan), a safe place for girls to attend a school in hopes of shielding them from the threats that loomed over her own future.

This two-time Bring a Friend guest takes us to a new level of inspiration this season! You’ll be in awe of how she survived the Taliban resurgence and how girls’ education is pivotal to a better world.

We are always changing, shifting, and evolving, so

We are always changing, shifting, and evolving, so it’s not surprising that women are in a major life transition 30% of the time.

Parlay House is in a transition of our own! As we celebrate twelve years of Parlay House this year, we are continuing to build our global women’s community that is all for connecting, learning and growing with women far outside of our normal social bubbles.

Parlay House is for us and also for the generations of amazing women who follow! With a new look and new membership tiers, we are working to sustain this intergenerational community beyond the time that any of us are around to enjoy it.

So if you are in a period of transition, know that you don’t have to do it alone. Grab a glass of bubbly, get in on the inspiring conversations, and find connections that lift and enrich you.

All the deets are now on our ✨refreshed✨ website - parlayhouse.com (link in bio to check it out)!

How well do you know yourself?

Most of us already have insight into who we are and how we interact with others. But even with that self-awareness, there’s room to improve how we put ourselves forward in the world!

Leadership Coach and Certified Enneagram Practitioner, Ali Dunn (@alimdunn), joined us in SF to help us each recognize our power and truly step into it using the Enneagram! The conversation not only helped guide us into knowing who we are but also how we can become the best versions of ourselves.

Some of our favorite takeaways from the evening...
✨The Enneagram sparks meaningful conversation and opens up the lines of communication.
✨As women, we prioritize our growth and are always looking for ways to connect deeper to ourselves and to each other.
✨Motivation explains behavior. Tap into your why and a whole world unfolds.
✨Quote of the night from the only Enneagram 6 in the room: “You see me. I feel validated!” She assesses risk as her career and loves it. That is SO Enneagram 6.
✨ High-level takeaways for each Enneagram Type:
Type 1: Aim for spontaneity
Type 2: Work on setting boundaries
Type 3: Connection your why to your wins
Type: 4: Dare to be basic
Type 5: No Enneagram 5s were there, their boundaries are so solid they don’t go to events (lol)
Type 6: Can we borrow your earthquake kit?
Type 7: Settle into your 5 and 1
Type 8: Vulnerability is your most daring move
Type 9: Rock the career boat, it’s time!

Parlay House is back in East Bay 🤩 and we kicked things off with the wonderful @jessaguirrenbc!

Who else has wondered what it’s like to be on TV, or even felt envious of the stunning women news anchors who seem to have it all together? 🙋‍♀️ From the outside, the career seems almost like a dream…but there’s a lot going on off-camera that’s not always so glamorous.

Jessica has been in the spotlight for more than 20 years as an NBC Bay Area News anchor and Emmy award-winning journalist. She got real with us about her personal story and the loneliness of living in the public eye, touching on mental health struggles, having work done, the influence of social media, and asking for help.

Like many of us, Jessica has faced plenty of misogyny in her workplace over the years, and her discussion gave us all a chance to open up about our own experiences with ageism and career shaming.

At our gatherings, we often hear women have ah-ha moments of “Wow, I thought I was the only one who felt like that,” and “Finally, someone said that out loud! I was thinking the same thing.”

When we open up and reveal ourselves in a safe and intimate space, we form true connections that go deep and discover that we are not alone in the challenges, celebrations, and changes we face on the outside.

Who else can’t wait to Parlay? We have many in person and digital gatherings to look forward to this month and we are so excited to see you there 🤩

Remembering the iconic and eccentric fashion tastemaker, Iris Apfel 🤍

Iris was bold, fearless, unapologetically herself, and inspired many to be their most daring selves! She possessed a knack for infusing creativity into the ordinary and turning it into something extraordinary, and was a trailblazer when it came to redefining and defying society’s perception of aging.

Just call them Blanche, Dorothy, Rose and Sophia 💛

The four friends - Joan Harris, Elsie Webb, Sylvia Crane and Mary Grace Tassone - all graduated from Mt. St. Mary’s Academy in Grass Valley, California, in the mid-1950s.

For the past year, they have lived together at Atria Senior Living, a retirement community located just a few miles away from their high school!

Upon graduation, they each went their separate ways, going on to have careers and raise families, including 12 children between the four of them.

When Crane moved into Atria Senior Living in July from her home of 66 years, she described a sense of relief and joy at seeing her friends of 70-plus years gathered again. “When I came in the dining room, all three of them were there. It was a nice feeling,” said Crane.
