Praise for the Revival Conference

Have you ever said yes to something on a whim and walked away forever changed? That was me at Revival 5.0 last Thursday.

I first crossed paths with the incredible woman behind this event Liat Horovitz while emceeing a conference last month. After she and Robyn Ptak from Procter & Gamble lit up the stage in a fireside chat, Liat (with her trademark warmth) invited me to join her upcoming gathering as her guest. I could tell Liat wasn’t the kind of person who does anything halfway, but I had no idea just how transformative this event would be.

Imagine a room pulsing with possibility, with every seat filled by women committed to honest sharing and radical support, and bursting with infectious energy. As we listened to one incredible speaker after the other, I was wiping away tears from laughter one minute, and from profound sadness the next - awestruck through it all by the resilience beating at the heart of every story.

The real magic was the container Liat created: a space of vulnerability, curiosity, and fierce compassion. She introduced each speaker with extraordinary generosity, then guided the conversations with intuitive gentleness and unwavering belief in and admiration for every voice.

Forever grateful to these powerhouse speakers who moved and inspired me so deeply: Chris McMartin, Kristen Gale, Jenn Harper, Negin Cheleh , Jake Karls and Tanya Kololian.

Loved spending time with long-time friends Irena Kahn, Yael Grimman and Alyssa Kerbel, while getting to meet so many fantastic women, including Marnie Rabinovitch Consky, Michelle Andre Francis, and Sharmila Sriram.

Liat, thank you for crafting such an authentic, empowering space. Revival is now officially an annual can’t‑miss on my calendar. 💖
