With Grace 2026 — Day Schedule

A Day Retreat for Women in Business

With Grace

You Were Made to Bloom

June 10, 2026 · Willow Creek · Kansas City

10:00 am

Welcome

Doors Open & Morning Gathering

Arrive, settle in, and connect with the women in the room. Coffee, light bites, and time to breathe before the day begins.

10:30 am

Opening Keynote

Planted on Purpose

Nellie Sparkman

Nellie opens the day with the question that anchors everything: who do you want to be known for? This isn't a business talk. It's an invitation to look honestly at the legacy you're building, the vision you've been carrying quietly, and the version of yourself you want to grow into.

11:15 am

Session One

Find Your Soil

Mariam Saifan

Before you can grow, you have to know where you're planted. Mariam shares her personal story of building a business rooted in clarity and conviction, and guides attendees through a framework for defining the vision that's uniquely theirs.

12:00 pm

Session Two

Grow in the Direction of Your People

Christa · Lumen Events

Christa walks through how she used AI tools to get radically clear on her ideal client, and how that clarity transformed her content. Attendees leave with real prompts, a working ideal client avatar, and a content strategy they can use the next day.

12:50 pm

Break

Lunch & Vision Work

Space to eat, reflect, and sit with the questions the morning raised.

2:00 pm

Session Three

Bloom Out Loud

Bailey Pianalto

Bailey makes the case for showing up as exactly who you are, not a polished version of someone you think clients want. She shares how authenticity became her most effective business strategy and helps attendees find the version of their voice that doesn't feel like a performance.

3:00 pm

Break

Afternoon Break

A moment to reset before the afternoon continues.

3:15 pm

Sponsor Spotlight

Willow Creek & Olive Topic TBD

Willow Creek

A conversation from our venue and catering partners about creating experiences that leave people feeling something.

4:00 pm

Closing Keynote

One Small Shift

Nellie Sparkman

The day doesn't end with a to-do list. It ends with one honest question and one decision. Nellie closes by helping each woman name the single shift that will mean the most in the season ahead.

5:15 pm

Evening

Cocktail Hour & Photos

Patio drinks, good conversation, and time to mark the day before dinner.

6:00 pm
