Who: EO Members & Forums You’ll be As Cold As Ice in this incredible workshop where we’ll learn the Wim Hof Method (WHM) to become happier, healthier and more powerful. Known as the Iceman, Hof uses a breathing technique to conquer challenges in extreme temperatures. The Wim Hoff Method is based on three powerful pillars of cold therapy, breathing and commitment to teach our bodies to adapt to extreme temperatures. In this workshop, Mark Derrickson, a breathing instructor, will teach us the intricacies of the WHM while we melt our stress away. Bring a bathing suit, towel and water shoes as we’ll dip our toes (and bodies) into ice baths and channel our inner Iceman. This is four live sessions with two forums each scheduled at a mutually acceptable date and time between now and June 2021. We are asking that your entire forum attend together! LIMITED TO THE FIRST 8 FORUMS WHO SIGN UP! *Please Register For this Event by going to the EO Global tab on the EO Network or contact Cindy at [email protected].

WHO CAN ATTEND: EO Members & Accelerators The first law of entrepreneurial gravity is “Growth sucks cash.” We encourage companies to examine their cash acceleration strategies.

WHO CAN ATTEND: EO Members & Accelerators Remember that really challenging meeting you had? Yup, it was a lot to endure. Katie Spotz has endured some challenging things too, and she did it for a great cause. Her first (yes, first) major challenge was rowing solo across the Atlantic. In fact, she set the record for being the youngest person to do so! Spotz took this on to raise $150,000 for clean water projects and has since taken on dozens of challenges in support of the mission for clean water. Come learn more about Katie Spotz and her story! Katie will present to EO Members and Accelerator Members at 4:15 with a reception to follow. Make plans to relax and connect with each other on what promises to be a beautiful summer evening at a unique place. REGISTER TODAY Attention Daughters of EO Katie Spotz is doing a special presentation to member’s daughters of any age. This will take place before the event and start at 3:15 and last about 30 minutes. Give your daughter the chance to hear the story of independence, commitment, and adventure. We can gather on the patio while Katie is encouraging our daughters to be bold, take risks, and aim high. This might require some juggling of rides, but it is totally worth it.
