A candid fireside chat with Boa & Hare co-founder Wilson Wong, with a Q&A and networking.

Most business events celebrate the win. This one is about the mess.

Every founder story eventually reaches the parts that don't make the LinkedIn post. The hire that didn't work out. The season that broke you. The conversation you avoided too long. The morning you almost quit.

Once a month at Messed Up Mondays, one of those founders sits down and tells you all of it. Not the polished version. The one they almost couldn't share out loud.

A different speaker every month. A different story every month. Held at Brighton Block in Edmonton. Doors at 6:00 PM.

What to expect

• A candid fireside conversation with a founder or operator who has been through it

• The real stories behind the polished version, told without script or stage performance

• A live Q&A where you can ask what you actually want to know

• Pre and post event networking with a room full of founders, operators, and people doing the work

• Bar and food available throughout the evening

• A reminder that bad seasons in business aren't the end of the story. They're part of it.
