Collaboration
We bring people together to build, not just to swap business cards. The best things happen when the right people work side by side.
About us
People first. Purpose always.
Connected with Purpose was built on a simple belief: the right connection, at the right moment, can change everything.

Megan founded Connected with Purpose to build a community where the right connection—at the right moment—can change everything.
Years of work in healthcare and senior care taught her that the most meaningful outcomes happen when people build genuine relationships and trust. She's seen firsthand how authentic connections open doors, create opportunities, and transform lives. That insight drove everything: a community built on collaboration, not transactions; on real relationships, not small talk.
Connected with Purpose is about bringing people together. Whether it's a networking event, a casual gathering, or a shared experience, the goal is always the same: creating spaces where authentic conversations happen, where young professionals find their people, and where community matters. Megan is based in Chicago and always ready to talk about building something meaningful together.
What we stand for
Not just small talk
This is a space for collaboration, growth, and real opportunities. Here is what that looks like.

Growth
Every connection is a chance to learn, stretch, and move forward. We create the rooms where that growth actually happens.
03
Opportunity
Real relationships open real doors. We connect people to the opportunities, partners, and ideas that change their trajectory.
04
Connection
Building meaningful relationships beyond the workplace through community events, shared experiences, and authentic conversations that create lasting personal and professional connections.
Connecting people.
Let's connect and build something great together.
If you are about building, connecting, and growing, you are in the right place.
