Planning an event, whether in-person or virtual, is difficult. Period!

But the magic that can come from an in-person event can be mind blowing and transformational.

Emily and Sarah share how a room full of introverts can come together, feel connected,  supported and heard in a powerful way. They share the behind-the-scenes strategies they used to create this energy, and yes, even how attendees moved past that 'awkward' getting to know everyone phase.

They share the beauty of learning from unexpected people and places, and the powerful stories they heard.
