Connectworking.
Intimate business dinners & breakfasts for businesswomen in Sydney & Canberra.
A new kind of gathering for businesswomen
You don't need another networking event.
You need a room that gets you.
The Insight Table is a lightly facilitated, high-impact gathering for businesswomen who crave real connection, rich conversation, and shared wisdom - without small talk or sales pitches. I call it Connectworking.
Whether over breakfast or dinner, each session is an invitation to pause and reflect in the company of thoughtful peers. We explore what's current, real, and relevant in business, self-leadership, and life behind the scenes.
You'll leave lighter, clearer, focused, and energised.
Because when businesswomen gather with intention, new ideas and possibilities are inevitable.
At our next Insight Table events we have a special celebration!
The revised and updated edition of my book has just beed released and every guest receives a copy to take home.
Your Next Chapter has been rewritten with fresh eyes - and a new layer of lived experience - because our next chapters are so often built on skinned knees and deeper levels of self-knowledge, the kind that changes not just how we see ourselves, but what we choose to do next.
In the years since the first edition, a late-in-life ADHD diagnosis gave me a deeper understanding of my sparky-brained wiring, and that new lens has made this edition richer, more honest, and more useful for every woman in business.
Whether you’re also the owner of a furiously fast moving brain, as sparky-brained, someone who has never quite fitted the standard “hustle and scale” business-building mould, opr even have your own late-in-life ADHD diagnosis, I wrote, and rewrote, this book for you.
Over our shared table, we'll weave in conversation around three themes drawn from the book:
đź”– Owning your worth: why confidence fluctuates but self-worth can become your anchor, and what that shift actually looks like in your pricing, your positioning, and the clients you attract
đź”– Your Inner Narrative: naming the specific voices that keep you from being seen, charging for the value you create and deliver, and saying yes to what you want
đź”– Designing for growth - on your terms: in a slower market, standing out matters more than ever. We'll explore how to build a business model that is distinctly, unmistakably you, leveraging your unique experience, strengths, and perspective to cut through the noise and draw the right clients in
Come hungry for good food, honest conversation, and a book that might just change how you see yourself, and how your ideal clients see you too.

Who’s your host?
I'm Angela Raspass.
I work with smart, fast-thinking, and values-led businesswomen who are often feeling the cost of Quiet Isolation, where all the thinking, deciding, and delivering running your own business demands without a sounding board or support begins to drain your energy and enthusiasm.
We all need a space to speak honestly, reflect deeply, and access the kind of wisdom that only emerges through shared experience.
That's why I created The Insight Table - not just as a space to connect, but as a place to gain perspective, celebrate milestones, stretch your thinking, plug back into confidence, and realise you're not alone in the entrepreneurial adventure.
We’ve been gathering for eight years now, across industries and stages of business development. When you access an open and honest "brains trust", thoughtfully facilitated and intentionally curated, things shift, and new possibilities ignite.
You leave lighter, wiser, reenergised, and clearer on what matters most, now.
What makes these events special?
Honest conversations, shared wisdom, and new perspectives.
Every Insight Table gathering is:
Thoughtfully themed
Guided themes and gentle structure support synergy, clarity, sharing, and new thinking. You're never put on the spot, but will always be invited into the conversation.
Small By Design
A maximum of 10 women ensures that everyone is heard, valued, and feels more comfortable being open and honest.
Curated for Depth
You'll be with women from diverse industries and in various chapters, who all share a desire for honest dialogue, strategic insight, and genuine connection.
Fuelled by good food & warm facilitation
We'll talk business and life, challenges and change, marketing and more…and we eat well while doing it!
Anchored in takeaway wisdom
You won't just leave inspired, you'll have tangible takeaways, thoughtful notes, and the clarity that comes from being truly heard.
How guests describe the events
Linda Addision
Personal Stylist,
Bottle Green and Yellow
“Interesting conversations and good food are often promised but rarely delivered. This is not the case with an event hosted by Angela.
She is a consummate host from preplanning the seating and sharing links to articles relevant to the table topic through to guiding a structured discussion of the theme.
You’ll find the food is delish but the conversation which Angela expertly guides more so.”
Sonya Tirtajaya
CEO, Community Shapers
"I am very over the standard networking type events, and this was a breath of fresh air, and just what I needed. It was truly a fantastic evening. The company was so refreshing, honest, and supportive right from the get-go.
No facades, or pretences, but genuine sharing of the experience of being a human forging your own purposeful business... I felt buoyed and inspired during and afterwards, and learnt so much".
Anita Gilbert
Founder, Flex Body
"It's just so good to connect with other women to widen my outlook. It's been incredibly busy but a little lonely lately. The discussion widened my perspective, and it was really refreshing to meet other women in such different areas and on different journeys. The group dynamic worked well with everyone able to have a voice - we could have chatted for many more hours!
Angela completely nails the right amount of chat, the interaction, and constructive discussion. She is such an inspiration, and I am incredibly fulfilled each time we connect".
Kylie Holyland
Executive Coach, Ascend HR
“It was wonderful - no one had an agenda, we were all curious and grateful to be in the space that had been created. I enjoyed the diversity of women at the table and the depth of intimacy that was achieved so quickly.
The women who attended were interesting, kind, compassionate and intelligent. I arrived with curiosity and an open mind and as Angela encouraged meaningful conversation and connections between us, we all left replete in mind and appetite”.
Kim Crowley
Personal Stylist, Style Sense
"Angela’s expertise, approach and philosophy are incredible, and I find it fascinating to listen to her and to meet the women she works with. I LOVE the way she brings women together in a relaxed yet professional way, that’s a very fine line to walk.
The evening was informative, insightful, fun, connective, reassuring, inspiring - particularly when you hear women who have been to some dark places and come back stronger than ever"
