THE ROOM
A curated room of women
YOU LEAVE WITH
The decision that moves your life forward
NOT ANOTHER LEADERSHIP CONFERENCE
FIND YOUR PURPOSE BUILD YOUR BRAND FIX YOUR WEAKNESSES BEAT IMPOSTER SYNDROME
What if nothing
is missing?
Your experience. Your instincts. Your relationships. Even the things
that make you different. Not problems to fix - your advantage.
THIS IS NOT ABOUT REINVENTING YOURSELF
It is about recognizing yourself.
She has evidence. She has judgment. She has instincts. She has scars. She has options. She may simply have stopped trusting it. The Advantage gives you the room to hear yourself again.
You have an advantage.
Are you using it?
The role you've
outgrown.
The conversation you
keep postponing.
The decision you
already know.
TWO DAYS TO CHANGE WHAT HAPPENS NEXT
Your Advantages
This is not two days of sitting in rows collecting notes. You will examine your life, leadership, relationships, energy and decisions through four lenses.
PEOPLE
Who brings out the best in you?
The people around you influence your confidence, your ideas, your choices, and what becomes possible. Notice the relationships that bring out your strongest perspective, and consider how to build more of those connections.
IDECISIONS
What are you ready to choose?
You have experience. You have judgment. Sometimes the challenge is not finding another answer, but trusting yourself enough to choose and knowing that you can adapt as you go.
ENERGY
Where does your energy go?
Energy is something you can intentionally generate, direct, protect, and replenish. Look at the emotional, mental, and relational resources that power your life, then decide where they can do the most good.
NEXT
What will you make possible with what you already have?
Insight matters when it turns into action. Connect the people, choices, and energy already available to you to one intentional move forward.
YOUR HOSTS
Two women. Two very different lenses.
Drea Gordon
THE WHY
Drea helps you understand what is happening underneath the decisions you make. Psychology. Behavior. Patterns. Intuition. Neuroscience. The invisible forces influencing why you move, why you wait, what you tolerate, and what finally makes change possible.
Drea helps you understand why you do what you do.
Joanna Lohman
THE LIVED EXPERIENCE
Professional athlete. Leader. Speaker. Author. Advocate. Reinventor. Reality TV Star on Amazing Race.
Joanna knows what it means to perform under pressure, navigate enormous transitions, and build a life that does not follow the obvious script - the moments when the plan disappeared and something better had to be built in its place.

WHO BELONGS IN THIS ROOM
Built for women who have already done something difficult.
For executives, founders, senior leaders, business owners, experienced professionals, and women at an inflection point.
You do not have to be burned out, ready to quit your job, or planning to reinvent your life.
Maybe you are doing well and know something more is available. Maybe a decision has been waiting for your attention. Maybe you want to be in a room that respects everything it took to get here.
You belong exactly as you are.
The conversation. The boundary. The person. The decision. You have simply gotten very good at living in the space before it. The Advantage is designed to close that space.
IMAGINE LEAVING CLEAR. NOT HYPED.
WHAT YOU LEAVE WITH
Not Another Notebook
Not a stack of notes you never open again. A personal, practical one-page playbook to help you act on what is already clear.

What decision am I ready to make?
What happens next?
