Let’s be honest—most conferences are a dumpster fire of awkward energy and sales pitches. This episode is about how to do it differently.

Pat Miller, the Idea Coach and creator of the Small Business Owners Community, has created a conference that’s built on actual community—not just cliques and cold coffee. In this episode, we break down how he intentionally curates the experience—from the minute someone buys a ticket, all the way through the steak dinner on day three. If you’re a coach running workshops, retreats, or your own event, this episode is your behind-the-scenes look at what makes people actually show up—and rave about it afterward.

Plus, we talk about:

  • Why most events fail to make people feel seen
  • What coaches must stop doing if they want to be taken seriously
  • Intentionality when it comes to communities and events.
  • How to build a room where people want to help each other win
