Episode 188 | Lessons from My First Live...

Gemma Bonham-Carter
About this episode

Welcome back to the show! I'm fresh off attending my first in-person business event in years, and wow, what a game-changer it was. If you've been thinking about attending a live event, this episode is going to give you the nudge you need to get out there and make it happen.

I’m sharing all about my experience at Jordan Gill’s Make Your Mark Live event in Dallas, where I not only reunited with old friends but also made some powerful new connections. Networking, collaborating, and getting uncomfortable on stage reminded me of the incredible value of showing up in person. It’s not just about the event itself—it’s the ripple effect of the relationships and opportunities you build that can propel your business forward.

In this episode, I dive into:

  • Why in-person events can skyrocket your network and fast-track business growth.
  • The importance of stepping outside your comfort zone and embracing the nerves (even if you're a seasoned entrepreneur!).
  • The unexpected ways you can make your event experience a win-win, from VIP days to spontaneous revenue-generating opportunities.
  • How personal brand entrepreneurs are doing business their own way, and why you should too!


Let’s spill the tea on why these events are worth the time, money, and effort. Ready to hit play?
