Ladies Who Launch

Join Dakota for a solo show as she speaks to one of the OG's of Calgary's marketing, PR and coaching scenes. Mandy is the creator of the former Branded Magazine, It's Date Night (which now spans Canada) and most recently, the Ace Collective, which is a community where heart-driven entrepreneurs get the systems, strategies and support to build and grow a thriving, profitable business without burning out.

• Closing and reopening businesses.
• Taking new business ideas to inception while looking after your mental health.
• Supporting other entrepreneurs.
• And so much more.

2022 is finally here and it's time to #levelup, friend. Whether it be your business model, your self-care model (yup, that's a thing!) or the way in which you conduct relationships (with others and yourself) and routine, levelling-up is better than a new year's resolution. We promise. Why? Because it's actionable.
