"Cake, Connection, & a Killer Keynote" is a multi-faceted celebration designed to be a materialization of Kantency's vision statement, which is:

To deepen the way we connect, so individuals can thrive and villages can rise.

Here's what it will look like...

Cake

We are celebrating Karli's birthday! and it's a big one... but we'll keep the exact number a secret for now.

When the objective is to "deepen connection", obviously there will be food if you like, too. Feeding people is a love language of Karli's, after all. With one of her favourie cuisines: JAPANESE!!!

Yes... there will also be cake. It'd be a silly event title without actual cake...

You will be responsible for covering the cost of your food, if you choose to order.

Connection

i.e. Curated Networking

If Kantency is the Step 0 expert, the people in our network are the Step 1 experts in their fields.

So let's get you connected! The Kantency way, that is - with the help of the Community Map. It's a curated guide to intentional connections, hand crafted by Karli. We also provide personal suggestions ("matchmaking") of who we think you should meet, whether for personal alignment or business opportunity purposes.

Yes, this element is optional. You'll indicate upon registration whether you'd like to be connected or not.

Killer Keynote

The Power of Perspective

Karli will take the stage and debut a new Keynote Presentation: The Power of Perspective.

In this keynote debut, we explore the big picture elements that influence our perspective, such as society, biology, our environment, and our own experiences. While the world has their perspective focused on the value of inner work, this presentation takes a Step 0 perspective shift to look at the big picture influence of our outer world as a foundation for the inner work.

Preview:

Whether a generation grew up with typewriters vs smartphones influences their perspective on mistakes and their consquences.

Have you ever noticed how most high level hockey players have birthdays in the first half of the calendar year? What's that about?

Could a fictional story about indestructable strings teach us about how our stress responses influence our perspective on life?
