MINNEAPOLIS, MN | JUNE 12-13, 2026

WHERE TEAM BECOMES THE MOVEMENT

This is the leadership festival for the VA who's done hiding, the founder who's done being the bottleneck, and everyone in between who's ready to stop performing and finally come home to themselves.

VA Fest is where the performance ends and YOU begin.

In a "holy sh*rt, who have I been this whole time" kind of way. In a "I laughed so hard I peed my pants and I just made my best friends and I finally know exactly who I am" kind of way. 


This isn't a dry chicken conference where you sit in a chair all day taking notes you'll never use. This is a two day experience designed to crack you open, light you up, and send you home so clean and clear and on fire that the only words you'll have for it are...

"Holy sh*rt. What just happened?"

This isn't your typical business conference...

This isn't a conference. It's a homecoming. You're going to walk in layered: in strategy, in logic, in who you think you're supposed to be. 


And over two days, we're going to strip all of that away until what's left is just you. Clean. Clear. Completely on fire.

This Is HISTORY in the Making

VA Fest 2026 is the first event of its kind: a leadership festival built at the intersection of team, identity, and scale.


Years from now, people are going to say:  

"I was there when everything changed. I was at the first VA FEST."

Will you be one of them?

Ready to Make History?
I built this event because I've spent years on both sides of team. I've trained thousands of VAs. I've hand-matched hundreds of elite operators to founder-led businesses. I've watched VAs become CEOs and founders finally breathe again because they built the right team.
And what I know — more than anything — is this:

Team is not an operational decision. It's a leadership identity.
Whether you're the VA stepping into your CEO era, the founder finally building the team that sets you free, or somewhere in between ... this is your conference.

Because leadership doesn't live in a title. It lives in how you show up. How you build. How you become.
VA Fest was born in the world of team. But the transformation it creates? That belongs to everyone.

  • What's the weather like in Minneapolis in June?

    This is a once-in-a-lifetime event! Your ticket secures your seat, meals, materials, and transformation experience. All ticket sales are final and non-transferable.
  • Is this just for virtual assistants?
    VA Fest was born in the VA and team industry, but the content: identity, wealth, embodiment, business strategy, and scale is built for anyone who runs or is building a business. If you're a VA, OBM, founder, or service provider who's ready to lead at a higher level, you belong here.
  • What makes this different from other business conferences?
    We don't do dry chicken and PowerPoints. This is a full-body, full-spirit experience designed to strip away who you've been performing and reconnect you with who you actually are. The strategy is world class. The energy is electric. And the people in the room will become some of your closest humans. It just hits different.
