I’m sharing the real stories from my event career — the moments that forced me to reset, pivot, expand, or completely rethink how I show up in this industry. These weren’t glossy highlight reel wins. They were the "maybe I should just move to a tropical island and quit events forever" kind of moments.
But I stayed. I evolved. And each of these moments taught me something that shaped how I work. I’m sharing them so you can see yourself in the messy, powerful, and often unseen parts of career growth… and know that making it through is not just possible, it’s part of becoming iconic in your own way.
