These are only a few of our EPIC Speakers! We will also have a panel each day! 

The panel on March 1 is called “Women Breaking Free” - it’s all about women who have really found themselves, and have broken free from the mundane routines and the overwhelm, and have now found their confidence in areas such as using their voice, speaking up and sharing their ideas, managing their money, and even branding themselves - paying attention to how they show up and use their voices now on social media and in the world.  Featured Panelists include: Whitney Gardner, Liz Banuelos, Bethany McCamish, and Liz DiRocco.

On March 2nd, we will have another panel called “Healing Tools: Transformative Practices for Modern Women”. In this discussion, a few speakers/coaches are going to explore healing tools and holistic/somatic practices that have helped them reconnect with themselves, break free from stress, and strengthen the mind/body connection . Whether it’s through breathwork, sound healing, mindfulness, or other modalities, this discussion will give us practical approaches to healing that anyone can learn from, and of course implement. Featured Panelists include: Kyla Gagnon, Mary-Beth Newell, RN, MS, Cassandra Juniphant, and Kayla Blackwood.

VIP:

The VIP Session will be held March 1st from 2-5 PM PST and it includes:

A high-impact session filled with EPIC Speakers, transformational goal-setting tools, and hands-on guidance (think: Q&A style!) to help you set goals that align with who you truly are.

You’ll have exclusive access to these three powerhouse women:

Dr. Blair Stamper: SOAR to Your Fullest Potential
Discover how to shift from a fixed mindset to a growth mindset and use gratitude, reflection, and alignment to reach your fullest potential. This session will leave you feeling empowered and ready to take on anything life throws your way.

Heather Nelson: From Chaos to Clarity
Learn from a working mom, entrepreneur, and podcaster about how to manage life’s chaos, set goals that actually work, and accomplish your dreams—all while staying grounded and balanced.

Anna Georgner: Reclaiming Joy and Authenticity
Dive into the transformational power of breathwork, sound healing, and radical self-love. Anna will guide you to check in with yourself, and set goals that align with your true purpose.

But that’s just the beginning of the VIP Experience...

After hearing from our incredible speakers, there will be an intimate panel, followed by an interactive session designed to help you channel your goals into real, actionable steps.

In this panel, we’re diving into what it REALLY takes to:

• Set goals that don’t just look good on paper but actually FEEL good in your life
• Overcome the obstacles that keep holding you back 
• Stay consistent with ease - Panelists will share what has worked for them whether it be accountability groups, calendar entries, etc

Here’s the thing: we’ve all set goals before that felt amazing in the moment but fizzled out when life got busy. That stops here.

And here’s the best part—you won’t only sit & listen (unless that’s all you want to do- we won’t put you on the spot). This is your chance to ask questions, get personalized insights, and workshop your goals in real-time during a live Q&A session.

By the end of the day, you’ll walk away with:

• A clear vision for what you want to achieve.
• A step-by-step plan to make it happen.
• The tools to stay aligned with your goals

 I totally get it -

Starting a healing journey like this can be A LOT - it can be a challenge just trying to figure out which kind of mentor gets where you are at, what book or podcast is the best, or what area of life to work on first. Should I heal my past relationship traumas first? My money mindset? Or should I work on my physical or mental health first?

As I first started my own healing journey, I remember wishing there was someone to guide me—to take the guesswork out of where to start and to help me find the best tools, insights, and strategies without going through all the trial and error myself. 

This is why I created RISE Live, a virtual summit where I could bring the BEST resources straight to you, saving you time, energy, and money! Where I could collapse time for you,  saving you from doing all the legwork to find the best resources. So you don’t have to add any more stress or overwhelm into your already busy life trying to decide which book to read or which “guru” to invest in. 

When I envisioned this event, I knew one thing for sure—I wanted speakers who wouldn’t just motivate you. I wanted a lineup of speakers who are experts in their fields and genuinely understand the challenges of feeling overwhelmed and stuck. I chose speakers who I have personally vetted and KNOW will help you shift from feeling lost and disconnected to plugging back into life and finding yourself again.

This journey led to WHATTHELYMPH, my self-love brand, helping women turn the mirror from a source of disgust to a reflection of love.
