KEYNOTE SPEAKER

Keynote Speaker: Tiffany Sauder

Keynote Topic: Dear 24-year-old Self

Tiffany Sauder is a wife, mom, entrepreneur, CEO, board member, investor, and mentor. 17 years ago, she founded Element Three and ever since she and her husband have been building their companies and their family on the exact same timeline. That means four kids, three businesses and two careers, all building towards one abundant life. While Element Three now has a growing stack of accolades and awards - this isn't the whole story. An amazing team and a hefty dose of hard work, wrong decisions and scary nights are all a big piece of how she got here. Tiffany has learned it isn't our trophies that are transferable, it's our scars and stories.
