What happens when world-class athletes, iconic voices, and fearless changemakers trade the spotlight for the soul seat?

You get Fireside Chat—an evening unlike anything you’ve experienced.

There’s no script. No stagecraft. No filters.
Just an open circle, a warm glow, and the kind of unguarded truth that only emerges when legends let their guard down.

This is where gold medalists talk about failure. Where bestselling authors speak about doubt. Where champions reveal the cost of the climb—and the deeper mission they discovered along the way.

Set inside the iconic Capitol Theatre and designed to feel like a campfire for the soul, Fireside Chat is an intimate, story-driven experience that dissolves the distance between audience and icon. It’s honest. It’s unscripted. It’s sacred.

Why You’ll Want to Be in the Room:
🔥 Live, Unfiltered Conversations with elite performers and cultural icons
🌟 Olympians & Celebrities sharing the truth behind their titles
🧠 Deep Insights on identity, impact, and inner strength
🎵 Soul-Stirring Music from award-winning performers
💬 Connection & Reflection through guided integration and collective pause

This isn’t just a night out.
It’s a journey inward—guided by those who’ve soared, stumbled, and chosen significance over spotlight.
