Local Coach Launches “Marriage & Mocktails”

A Monthly Gathering for Women Seeking Happier Marriages and Calmer Homes

Utica, NY — Local marriage and business coach Brooke Sann is inviting women to step away from the stress of everyday life and into a space designed for connection, reflection, and meaningful conversation.

Brooke SannOn April 18th, Sann will host the first Marriage & Mocktails, a monthly in-person gathering for women who want to build happier marriages and calmer homes while balancing the demands of business, motherhood, and modern life.

Described as “Girls’ Night Out meets therapy,” the evening will feature guided discussion, practical relationship tools, mocktails, charcuterie, and the chance for women to connect with others who understand the pressures of building a full life.

Sann, a former hairstylist of nearly two decades, says the inspiration for the event came from years spent listening to women open up about their marriages and personal struggles while sitting in her chair.

“For almost 20 years behind the chair, women shared their real lives with me — their marriages, their stress, the mental load they carry. I realized so many women feel alone in it. Marriage & Mocktails is a place where we can talk about those things openly and walk away with tools that actually help.”

Each month will feature a different topic related to relationships, emotional regulation, and creating healthier dynamics at home.

The April event will focus on building happier marriages and calmer homes through emotional regulation, helping women understand how their emotional state influences the energy of their home and their partnership.

Sann now works with women business owners through her coaching program The Business of Marriage, where she helps high-achieving women transform their marriage into their greatest business asset.

“So many women are incredible leaders in their businesses but feel overwhelmed or alone at home,” Sann explains. “When your marriage becomes a place of partnership and support instead of pressure, everything in life gets easier.”

The evening is designed to feel relaxed, supportive, and inspiring — not like a lecture or networking event.

“Women don’t just need more information,” Sann says. “We need spaces to exhale, reflect, and reconnect with ourselves and each other.”

Marriage & Mocktails will be held on April 18th in Utica, with additional gatherings planned monthly throughout the year. Space is limited. Tickets and event information can be found at: www.brookesann.com/events
