About this event
How do you find your purpose? How can you succeed in spaces if you haven’t seen anyone like you do so? What do you do when it doesn’t work out?
Join our incredible opening keynote with Faustina Agolley to hear about her life and career, including how she found her path, overcame her imposter syndrome, and rebuilt when it all fell apart. Faustina will share her learnings on how you can create a meaningful, purpose-driven life, how adversity helped her to succeed, and how she goes about answering some of life’s big questions.
