About this Event
Female leaders are peeling back the curtain, going beyond the highlight reel, and sharing the real story behind success.
This is the second installment of We Effed Up – Now What?! and the third event hosted by The Rise Society.
April 2nd (NEW DATE!) | Nanaimo Conference Centre
We Effed Up – Now What?!
Early Bird Ends Feb. 14th
We’re talking resilience - the pressure, the pivots, the perfection culture, the imposter syndrome, and the moments you almost quit… but didn’t.
Because let’s be real: your mistakes feel a whole lot lighter when you hear someone you admire share theirs first. So we’re bringing the humor, the honesty, and the lessons that come from building something real.
And we want you there! TICKETS EXPECTED TO SELL OUT

✨ What You’re Walking Into on April 2
• Cold-pressed juice + snacks (on us)
• A beautiful take-home guide you’ll actually use
• Real conversations, not highlight reels
• Inspiring women sharing the honest version of leading bold lives
• Big laughs, real lessons, zero fluff
• A room where you’ll feel seen and supported
• Genuine connection with amazing local women
This feels way more like a live talk show and way less like any business or networking event you’ve ever been to. It’s fun, real, electric - and you’ll leave feeling seen, inspired, and fully lit up. Suitable for any woman, not just women in business.
Seats are limited, stories are big, and early bird pricing disappears fast.
