Slowing down might sound impossible in the fast-paced world of events, but what if it’s actually the key to doing your best work? In this week’s episode, we sit down with event producer and strategist Marisa Cali of Be Present LLC to talk about the power of intentional reflection for event professionals. Marisa shares real stories from her career, practical ways to pause even in peak season, and why rethinking productivity can change how you lead and deliver events. If you’ve ever worried that slowing down means falling behind, this conversation will give you tools—and encouragement—to approach events with more clarity and purpose.
