Inman Connect holds a special place in my heart, and it’s not just because of the fantastic locations like New York City and Las Vegas or the stellar lineup of speakers. For me, the true magic lies in the people—the connections I make that go beyond just professional networking.

When I first attended Inman Connect, I expected to meet individuals who would inspire me professionally, and I wasn’t disappointed. What took me by surprise, though, was the friendships that blossomed from those initial encounters. Whether we were lounging by the pool, mingling at after-hours events, or engaging in conference sessions, we had an absolute blast together.

What sets Inman Connect apart is the caliber of attendees it attracts. These are individuals who are not only driven and ambitious in their business pursuits but also value the importance of enjoying life. That balance resonates deeply with me, and it’s why I always look forward to reconnecting with these like-minded individuals.

Beyond the conference itself, I’ve had the pleasure of meeting up with fellow attendees in different cities for dinners, theater outings, and even virtual FaceTime happy hours. Despite our geographical distances, the bond forged at Inman Connect keeps us connected and engaged in both personal and professional aspects of life.

As we gear up for Inman Connect in Las Vegas this August, I’m eagerly anticipating the opportunity to reunite with familiar faces and forge new connections
