Have you ever been in a room and thought to yourself: “I’m too inexperienced to be here.” “I’m too young to be here.” “I’m too early in my career to be here.” Because SAME. The first time I attended The Gathering Summit, I felt all of these things. This will be my fourth year attending (third year IRL), and I’m pleased to say that I think I’ve overcome my imposter syndrome. Mainly thanks to the welcoming environment The Gathering team has created at this event. It sounds cheesy, but honestly, everyone belongs at The Gathering. Who’s going to The Gathering 2024? See you there!!!

We learned, we laughed, we cried, we danced, we gathered. ✨ I had the best time with the Arcade crew at my first The Gathering Summit! I felt so grateful to be in a room full of amazing people and to hear from some of the most iconic brands out there. I always feel a new sense of inspired action after conferences and this one was no exception. Here are a few nuggets I’m holding close as I reflect on the last few days: - Make an impression, don’t count on impressions. This is just one piece of the puzzle. - Inspiration and knowledge don’t mean anything if we remain isolated. - The creative itself creates the reach. - If you’re good enough, nobody is taking anything away from you. - Hyper-listening will give you 80% of the ah-ha’s to inform the work. - Have the courage to start and not be the expert. the key is to manage the bully inside your head. - Disruption is the outcome, not the strategy. look outside the category. - In the sea of sameness, brand is the tie breaker. - Empower people to create, and they’ll surprise you. but you have to let go. - Rest is required for creativity. #TGS2024 #TheGathering #MarketingLife

The Gathering Summit was a truly transformative experience. Surrounded by industry trailblazers—brands like McDonald's, The Coca-Cola Company, Levis’Store, Pinterest, Barbie ® and Gary Vaynerchuk—I gained invaluable insights, had countless aha moments, and shared laughs, even a few tears. I had meaningful conversations with incredible professionals, and there couldn’t have been a better backdrop for it all than beautiful Banff. Attending with the outstanding team of directors and leads at Arcade made the experience even more special. "If you are good enough, no one is taking anything from you". - Gary V The Gathering gave me a fresh perspective, recharging my creativity and inspiring me to make bolder decisions in both work and personal projects. I’m immensely grateful for this opportunity and can’t wait to return next year!

The calibre of speakers here at The Gathering Summit 2024 is insane!!! Lucky to be here with Arcade 🍀 McDonald's, National Football League (NFL), Pinterest, Gary Vaynerchuk just to name a few of my faves so far!

MERCH! ⚽ Calgary Wild FC is live with the first physical expression of what is developing into an iconic Alberta brand in the world of sport. With support from the team at Local Laundry, you can now get your hands on the first wave of merch here: https://lnkd.in/g4_XtPjd We got tapped to work with Wild FC as they prepare for their inaugural season as part of the new Northern Super League, alongside some other incredible partners like Daughter Creative and Worthington PR & Story. This has been especially exciting as we watch women's athletics finally beginning to get more of the attention, money, and credit it deserves across North America. For it to translate to Canada's first professional women's soccer league right here in Canada, to bring some of Canada's best talent back home from other countries, and for Calgary to be one of the founding teams, is really special. Stay tuned for more exciting movement on this front as the team starts to take shape, and we get ready for 2025.
