Bound & Determined℠ is hitting the road. Next stop: charlotte!
Join podcast host Meg McKeen on Friday, April 11th, for an inspiring morning as you grow in connection with others - and yourself - in this intimate setting.
Meg will be joined in a fireside chat-style conversation with Diane Wagner as we begin our time together, with time for open conversation following, and connection building with fellow attendees, too.
What is Bound & Determined℠ Live?

It is open to a woman regardless of her role or title or tenure, is low-cost, hyper-local, and does not require extensive time away from work or family. Join us as we take the conversations we're already having on the podcast and invite you to participate in them, too.
