Reimagine Leadership.
Rewire Your Impact.
Leadership isn’t a straight line — it’s a winding path of clarity, doubt, courage, and growth. This Summit is your chance to pause, reflect, and reimagine the way forward.

Pre-Summit Bonus Session: Mind, Body, Leadership — starts at 8:00 AM CST
Why "Reimagine Leadership"?
In food and business, we’re trained to watch for the risks we don’t know.
In leadership? The real danger is what we think we already know.
The habits we don’t question.
The assumptions we hold tight.
The ways we lead on autopilot — even with the best intentions.
This Summit is your invitation to challenge that.
To lead with deeper clarity. Stronger connection. And bold intention.
🧘♀️ Pre-Summit Bonus: Mind, Body, Leadership
Before the main event, join us for a grounding session that blends movement, breathwork, and reflection — led by Catalyst co-founder Jill Stuber.
This is more than a warm-up. It’s a reset for how you enter the day — present, calm, and ready to grow.
