October 30th, 

BE YOU. BE VALUED. BE NEXT. 

A one-day professional development Symposium. 

If you are a person who can generate income through your leadership practices, time, attention, focus, and talents, then what are you doing

You know that when you take time to focus on what you want, you also set a new practice in motion. It's not just progress and staying busy; it’s focusing on the difference between growth and stagnation.

You also know that the most powerful move to get ahead is to take pause and invest in yourself. This is where your vision for your career and brand becomes part of your ongoing success practice.

Picture this: a day dedicated entirely to you.

A serene, sunlit space with an atmosphere so relaxing you can finally hear yourself think. This is the backdrop for a profound shift.

This one-day Symposium is meticulously designed to balance connection, community, and introspection. You'll move seamlessly through invigorating group discussions with fellow leaders to powerful 1:1 support sessions, and find stillness in deep, meditative practices focused on building your brand, and put you front and center in your business, industry, and career. 

Every detail, from the curated playlist to the exquisite, chef-prepared luncheon, is handled so you can focus on what matters most: you.

This is more than a day away from the office. It’s a new way forward.
