“Zoom Me Maybe?” – Let’s Not Just Connect, Let’s Feel Connected
Raise your hand if your inbox is full of “Let’s catch up!” and your soul is tired of chasing the ghost of connection♀️
We get it. Scheduling is a nightmare. DMs go unanswered. And you’re left wondering if
meaningful connection is just... a myth.
Not today. - Hoogah’s got you.
It’s not a networking event. It’s not a panel.
It’s your chance to actually feel connected without needing a calendar ninja or 7 follow-up emails.
Let’s turn “someday” into right now.
This is a one-of-a-kind experience designed to make you feel seen, heard, and a little more human.
✨ Show up.
✨ Be real.
✨ Walk away feeling like the universe slid the perfect person into your inbox.
Spots are limited. Awkward small talk is not invited.
RSVP before you start your next group chat with “We should totally catch up.”
What to Expect (a.k.a. why you don’t want to miss this):
1:1 conversations with women who actually are in the same headspace as you
A barcode from Hoogah with your personalized match and an icebreaker that won’t make you roll your eyes
And — a little something from me: everyone who participates in the event will receive a $10 starbucks gift card as a thank-you for being part of something that means a lot to me
About Khushi Yadav:
I’m a first-generation American woman who spent 25 years in tech, leading teams and
delivering millions of dollars’ worth of software. I did everything “right” — climbed the ladder, collected titles, hit the goals.
And somewhere along the way, I got lonely.
The higher I climbed, the fewer people I had to call. Friends faded. Group chats went quiet. I had the career I dreamed of — but not the people I wanted to share it with.
So I did what I know best: I looked at Tech to build a solution.
I started Hoogah to make human connection a little easier. A little warmer. A little more real.
Is it a big goal? Yep.
But if just one person finds a real connection through Hoogah — if someone finds their “4 AM call” — then I’ve done it right.
This isn’t just a company. It’s my story, my pain, and my love — turned into something that might just change the way we show up for each other.
