Is any part of this event virtual? No, this event is in-person only.

Will this be too difficult (or too easy)? That’s up to you! There will be levels for all, so don’t be intimidated. GO will be a fantastic opportunity to push yourself, get inspired, and self-reflect. The event will be as challenging as you make it.

How can I gift this? If you are gifting to one person, go ahead and use their information. If this is a surprise, you will be able to change your/their contact information later, so use their name and your email.

Is there a discount for multiple tickets? Shared experiences are the best. Therefore if you purchase more than one ticket (for you and a friend, etc.), there’s a published discount. If you are looking to enroll a large group, please contact Colleen (colleen@notalmostthere.com) for assistance.

Can I attend just listen to the speakers? The agenda will aim to be immersive intertwining the speakers with the activities. While you can just watch the speakers and not participate, you will not get everything you can out of the event.

Is there max capacity? There is, so we highly encourage you to get your tickets now before they sell out.

What if I need to change? There will be a private indoor changing area. More information on what to bring will be sent out closer to the event.
