  • 10 Tips was Awesome!

    Practical, smart, and exactly what event pros need. As someone who’s been behind the scenes of many events, this episode was gold. Logan’s run of show tips are the kind of small-but-mighty insights that make a huge difference when you’re in the chaos of live production.

    This episode is a must-listen whether you’re new to events or a seasoned pro. Simple, actionable, and delivered with clarity.

    Sharing this with every planner I know!
