The Biggest Mistakes I Made Hosting Community Events (And What I’d Do Instead)

When I first started hosting events, I thought I knew what would make them successful  but a lot of what I learned came through trial, error, and moments that didn’t go as planned.

In this episode of She Cultivates, I’m sharing the biggest mistakes I made when I started hosting events, what they taught me, and how I would approach things differently if I were starting from scratch today.

If you’ve ever thought about hosting your own event or building a community, this episode will help you avoid common pitfalls and focus on what actually creates meaningful connection.

In this episode, I share:

• The biggest mistakes I made when I first started hosting events
• Why lack of structure can lead to disconnection
• How trying to do too much can take away from the experience
• How to build momentum and confidence as a host

This episode is for anyone who wants to create gatherings that feel meaningful, welcoming, and rooted in real connection — without having to learn everything the hard way.

And if you’re ready to take the next step, I’ve created a step-by-step event guide and offer coaching to help you design and host intentional events that build community.
