On August 7, still buzzing from the Scale conference, I boldly decided to run Wild Growth workshop . I was ready to rally my tribe and create something monumental for both the business and foster care communities. The Phoenix Zoo was the perfect venue—an easy decision with my cousin working there. But, as with all big moves, nothing ever goes as planned.
After securing the zoo for September 28, I realized two of my key speakers couldn’t make it. The only other available date? September 13, giving me less than 30 days to pull off something extraordinary. My heart still races when I think about that pivot—I could play basketball in pro's because of my pivoting skills.
Then came the phone calls. Friends, with all the best intentions, told me it was okay to push the event back or even cancel. They had sound reasoning, and believe me, I understood their concerns. But deep down, I had a sacral response of “no.” I knew this was meant to happen. Yet, in those quiet hours afterward, I questioned myself. Did I bite off more than I could chew, what did I get myself into?
Now, as the weeks have turned into days I felt like I was stranded on a island alone trying to make it all happened as I sit here days before wild growth I am overwhelmed by the response. Despite all the pivots, the decisions that came with risk, and the moments of doubt, I’m excited to bring together these incredible people who are ready to move the needle in business. And beyond that, I’m so thrilled to give Arizona foster kids some unforgettable experiences.
This journey has been about so much more than an event. It’s been about learning to trust myself, pivoting when needed, and embracing the powerful, passionate woman I’ve become. Wild Growth is more than a conference—it’s a ripple effect, touching lives far beyond my own, and I can’t wait to see it unfold.
If you haven’t got your ticket to wild growth, and you’re in Arizona and reading this before September 13. I encourage you to join us for a day that I and you will never forget.
