BIG NAMES, BIGGER REPUTATIONS: ON HER OWN TERMS
Beth LaBreche (former CMO + Founder) + Qiana Hicks (Founder) +
Donna Svendsen (Director)
​
Serious women doing serious work - their own. They've changed direction a time or two, but always deliberately and at their own choosing. Their stories center in on the real life moments in which a pivot included taking the leap, stepping back, moving sideways or pivoting to a new path altogether. Get the facts on what it takes to do different too (after all, we're a little different!)

GUEST VOICE SUPER STARS
Tina Rexing (Founder, TRex Cookies) + Susan Thayer (CEO/Founder, Rabbit Creek), Heather Polivka (CEO/HeatherPSolutions)

One part wicked smart, 2 parts tenacious, 3 times as crazy. Yep, that’s the lineup. Even if you've heard from these founders before, what you don't know is the grit and determination needed to persevere. When the going gets tough, the tough get tougher. Listen in and learn what it really means to pivot.
​

WELCOME & CHECK-IN
​
12:30-5:30PM
MAINSTAGE MOMENTS DESIGNED to CHALLENGE the STATUS QUO
6:00-9:00PM
HAPPY HOUR
ATTENDANCE OPEN to ALL
BUSINESS ATTIRE HIGHLY DISCOURAGED - LIKE 100% DISCOURAGED
COME AS YOU FEEL
WHO SHOULD ATTEND
Your voice is critical. Plan to join the conversation & make a difference for yourself or your organization. Both audiences will benefit, all voices needed.
Founder & CEO
Built your castle not once but twice, on the hunt for another challenge and ready for an org to watch me grow it.
Your Name Here
Creative to a fault. 15+ years leading teams, ready to jump but not at all sure where to quite yet.
EVP, Creative Director
Leader, doer and creator of things through and through. Sometimes by title, other times not so much.
HR Executive
You're hearing all about the Great Resignation but still confused about the 'who' & the 'why.' Join us and hear firsthand what talent really wants.
VP, Customer Care
Ready to take on a new vertical, annoyed with convincing everyone you already have what it takes.
FINE PRINT: Covid liability waiver to be signed on-site / mask protocol to follow facility guidelines. Proof of vaccination required on-site.
WANT TO SPONSOR?
We thought so. Email, text or call us to talk about your goals + how they might align to ours. After all, slapping a logo on something only goes so far. We're interested in what you're interested in - results, connections, making change happen.
Let's help the universe see talented women differently - together.
In just 9 hours you can become a certified yoga instructor, put in a full day's work, settle an age old argument, knock out a strategic plan, discover a new restaurant (or two), start and finish a novel. You can quit and start a new job, get remarried or walk from downtown to uptown. You can even get up in the morning, fly to another city, see the sites and return home safe and sound . . . maybe.
​
Or you can take the time to conceive what's possible, challenge the status quo, meet those who've been there, done that, begin to create a plan and get started working on what's NEXT.
