SOLD OUT. 🎉

600 people. One room. One incredible community.

The YPLS Summit is officially at capacity.

What started as a vision to bring ambitious young professionals together has grown into something bigger than we imagined.

To everyone who registered, shared the event, partnered with us, sponsored us, and supported YPLS along the way, thank you. This community made it happen.

Now it’s time to bring it all together.

October 3rd. Toronto. See you there.

Leadership isn’t about having all the answers. It’s about making what you’ve learned useful to someone else.

Speak clearly. Teach what experience taught you. Point people in a direction they can actually follow.

The best leaders don’t just share knowledge. They create clarity, build confidence, and leave people better equipped than they found them.

Speak. Teach. Point. That’s how leadership sticks.

Ten people are getting into a room they couldn’t afford to be in. Applications close tonight.

Every year someone at the summit tells me they almost didn’t come because the ticket was a stretch. The rooms that move your career usually cost something to get into, and the people who need them most are the ones who can’t justify the spend.

Nico Federico sponsored ten tickets this year. If cost is the only thing between you and October 3rd, apply. If you know someone like that, nominate them. Today is the last day.

The most important conversations rarely happen on the agenda.

They happen in the hallway. Over coffee. In the five minutes after everyone else has left.

Ask better questions. Stay long enough to listen. Follow up while the conversation still matters. Give value before you ask for anything in return.

Because leadership is not only what happens when you have the room.

It is what you do with the relationship after you leave it.

Nobody remembers slide four of anyone’s deck. They remember the five minutes by the coffee table.

I’ve watched more careers move in hallways than in conference rooms. Four things that actually work:

1. Stay after. The panel gets the applause, but the unstructured twenty minutes afterward is where someone decides to take a chance on you.

2. Ask what someone is working on, not what they do. One question gets you a title. The other gets you a person.

3. Follow up within 48 hours and be specific. Most connections die of silence, and the bar for standing out is lower than people think.

4. Give before you need anything. Send the article, make the introduction. That’s not a tactic, it’s how trust gets built.

What’s the best connection you’ve made that nobody planned?

Today is the day you are going to do that one thing you've been wanting to do for the longest time. You are going to take the first step towards achieving that goal or dream you have. Today is the day that you are going to lose all fear and the limiting beliefs you have had for years.

Remember that our time here is limited and the opportunity is this moment not when the time is right. Do that something that scares the crap out of you. Today you are going to look in the mirror and say, I got this!

The version of me you see here is real. The keynotes, the coaching calls, the summit. I’m proud of all of it.

But none of it is the point.

The point is a 10-year-old who taught me patience before any client ever paid me for it. Who gives me the most honest feedback I’ve ever received, usually mid-bite at dinner. Who doesn’t care what was on the slide deck, only whether I showed up.

People ask where I learned to lead. Twenty years of boardrooms helped. She did more.

Everything I build is practice for the leadership that happens off camera.

Who taught you the most about leadership without ever knowing it? Tell them today.
