In this episode, Bunny Young sits down with Juliet Tripp, an international events strategist, mindset coach, and experience designer. Juliet brings over ten years of hands-on experience from the global events industry and walks us through why real transformation doesn’t happen behind a screen. It happens when we’re in the room together.

This conversation is about more than hosting retreats or selling out a venue. It’s about what shifts when people come together in person, how those moments can change everything in a business, and why showing up in real life matters more now than ever. Bunny and Juliet talk about the strategy behind great events, but also the energy and intention that make them unforgettable.
