As 2024 draws to a close, I find myself looking back on the journey this year has been. It’s been a year of growth, learning, and meaningful connections—both professionally and personally. As we grow as people, our unique abilities evolve. To truly do our best work, we need to align with the things that bring us joy! In the meetings and events industry, we talk a lot about creating moments that matter, and this year has been full of them. From weathering the downpour at the Queens plate with Phil Wizard, to connecting the old and new. Every experience has been a reminder of the power of collaboration and creativity. What stands out most to me, though, are the people. The colleagues, clients, and partners who inspire me every day, and the countless behind-the-scenes efforts that make the magic of this industry happen. ✨🎩🐇 Here’s to closing out 2024 on a high note and stepping boldly into the new year! #Reflection #YearInReview #EventProfs #MeetingsAndEvents #Gratitude #ProfessionalGrowth #Collaboration #MakingMagicHappen

2024: A Year of Growth, Gratitude, and Big Dreams for 2025 Wow—what a year it’s been! As 2024 comes to a close, I’m taking a moment to reflect on everything we’ve accomplished and everything we’ve learned along the way. This year was a wild ride, filled with highs, challenges, and some pretty unforgettable moments. We came into 2024 riding a wave of momentum as our industry continued to bounce back, with clients challenging us to create events that were more inclusive, more sustainable, and more meaningful. And you know what? We delivered. From intimate gatherings to large-scale productions, we made sure every event wasn’t just seamless and memorable—but truly impactful. But life has a way of throwing curveballs, right? Early in the year, I was in a serious car accident that really slowed me down. I wasn’t able to move at my usual pace, which—if you know me—is fast. But here’s the thing: my team didn’t miss a beat. They stepped up in ways that honestly left me speechless. They not only kept things moving, they crushed every single goal we had set. Seeing their dedication reminded me why I’m so proud to do this work. 2024 was also a year of incredible partnerships. I got to collaborate with some of the best minds in the industry, and together, we pulled off events that left lasting impressions. From Toronto to the Caribbean, the connections we made this year were nothing short of amazing, and I know these relationships will last a lifetime. #Gratitude #InclusiveEvents #GlobalImpact #DebonairCorporateEvents P.S. Let’s talk soon if you’re ready to make your event dreams a reality. Our inbox is open! https://lnkd.in/geh8yRuQ

✨ Do Work You Love Breakfast: Celebrating 8 Years! ✨ 8 years ago, on October 10th 2016, I hosted the very first Do Work You Love Breakfast. Every time, I love it more—bringing together like-minded people who share a passion for what they do. We meet, exchange ideas, discover synergies, do business together, and even refer jobs. It's a space where we give and receive advice on current topics, trends, and tools to help us navigate our work lives. Here are my 3 reasons for starting this event series back in 2016: 🫶 The Power of Masterminds For years, I met with mastermind groups, often in the morning, and after each meeting, I felt inspired, resourceful, energized, creative ... well, like I could rule the world. I wanted more people to experience that energy and empowerment. 🫶 Connecting with Inspiring People I’ve always been fortunate to know exciting, inspiring people, but finding time to meet 1:1 with everyone is a challenge. These breakfasts allow me to meet them in groups, making meaningful connections easier. 🫶 Structured Networking I’ve always loved recommending relevant people, products, businesses, and projects. This event allows me to do it in a structured way, with group sizes of 12-20—just perfect for fostering real conversations and connections. Today’s breakfast was no different. We had participants from diverse backgrounds: startup advisors, marketing, real estate, hospitality, products for children, education, founders, fashion, product managers, co-working space owners, engineers, deep tech journalists ... and more! 🙌 Thanks to all who joined! Lara Stefanie Luca Julia Tatjana Elias Debora Astrid Rüdiger Stuart Tyson Want to be part of the next one? Ping me for the upcoming dates: 📅 25 November at velvet space coworking with Lara 📅 09 December with me at Bar Centrale #DoWorkYouLove #Networking #Community #PersonalGrowth #BusinessConnections #HumanOverTech #ConnectingPeople

Without this level of support, many people find themselves hitting mid-December feeling scattered, fatigued, and unprepared to start the New Year strong 🤯 This 30-day partnership will ensure you stay on track and head into January with clarity and momentum! 🙌🏽 𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐍𝐨𝐰? I won’t be able to run this offer again in the New Year, as I’ll be shifting focus to longer-term programs and new opportunities for growth. This is a one-time chance to work with me for 30 days at this accessible price point, and I don’t want you to miss it! If you’re ready to get serious about your goals and stay motivated on the run up to the holiday season, this is your sign. I’m here as your compass and torchbearer, guiding you step by step. — you don’t have to do it alone 💜✨💜 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐝𝐨𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐝𝐞?

When you're in the throes of being made redundant, it doesn't feel like anything good can come of it. And yet, I know so many people for whom it was a turning point to make the leap to doing something they'd always wanted to do (fear can be a great motivator). For me, it was the moment I started to work for myself, something which I may not have done in other circumstances. I know many people who say the same. As we run up to our free IRL events in partnership with LinkedIn and Major Players | B Corp™ and our newly announced digital event (because the IRL booked out in 2 hours) on the 25th June at 10am, we'd love to build up the confidence of those who are experiencing redundancy. So we're going to have regular profiles of people for whom redundancy was a pivotal moment to their story, in a positive way. Jess MacIntyre has kindly agreed to be one, and we'd love to hear from more of you! Please do DM / comment below if you're up for being featured. People can't be what they can't see, and it's a great way to lift others spirits. Right now the world might feel very dark, but there is light at the end of the tunnel. Link to the online event is here, please do share to anyone you think it might be useful for: https://lnkd.in/eBYu7tWR #redundancy #storytelling #positivechange

✨ 2024 Lessons: Self-Advocacy & Boundaries in the Workplace ✨ As we close out 2024, I’ve been reflecting on the invaluable lessons I’ve learned about self-advocacy and work boundaries—whether in corporate roles or as a contractor/freelancer. These lessons have helped me navigate tricky conversations, protect my time and skills, and stay aligned with my values. Key Takeaways: 🖇️ Corporate Life: • Know your worth: Don’t let your time, skills, or well-being be taken for granted. • Job creep: Avoid working outside of your initial job description or proposal. • Difficult dynamics: Learn to handle conflicting personalities with professionalism. • Balance: Understand the difference between laziness and knowing your limits. 💼 Contractor/Freelancer Insights: • Pricing power: Set clear, confident rates for your services. • Retainers matter: Demand retainers to ensure your time and labor are valued beyond just service fees. • Contracts are essential: Always have well-defined contracts to protect your work, set expectations, and outline deliverables. • Manage expectations: Clearly communicate both your and your clients’ expectations from the outset. • Trust your gut: Don’t take opportunities purely for financial gain; align them with your values and brand. • Personal branding: Maintain your brand identity even when representing others behind the scenes. • Adjust your rates: Reflect economic changes and inflation in your pricing. • Know when to barter: Strategic exchanges can be powerful—but know your boundaries. I’m still learning and growing through these sometimes uncomfortable conversations and situations. Going into 2025, I’m committed to applying these lessons from over 10 years in entertainment, media, events, brand partnerships, and influencer marketing. Let’s continue to support each other in setting boundaries, advocating for our value, and thriving in our careers! 💬 What are your key self-advocacy lessons from this year? #SelfAdvocacy #WorkBoundaries #FreelancingTips #ContractorLife #CorporateCulture #PersonalGrowth #2025Goals #BrandPartnerships #EntertainmentIndustry
