Dress code
All Things Bright and Beautiful. We want the room to look colourful.

Last year, we were Rooted to Rise. There comes a time when preparation must become movement.

Flourish & Win: Rise to Run is a powerful gathering for women who are ready to stop waiting for the perfect moment and begin moving confidently towards what is next.

You may be building a career, growing a business, navigating motherhood, rebuilding after a difficult season or seeking the confidence to begin again.

Wherever you are starting from, this day has been created to remind you that you are not behind, you do not have to move alone and your next step matters.

Through inspiring speakers, honest panel conversations, practical insight and meaningful connection, you will leave encouraged to rise—and equipped to run.

Who the event is for

Rise to Run is for the woman who is:

- Ready to move forward but needs clarity or encouragement

- Building a career, business, family or new chapter

- Looking for genuine community

- Rebuilding after a challenging season

- Seeking confidence and personal growth

- Ready to connect with women who understand her journey

You do not need to have everything figured out. You only need to be willing to take your next step

Charity partner: Flourish & Win is proud to support Chozen Foundation as the chosen charity partner for Rise to Run 2026.

$5 from every paid ticket will be donated to Chozen Foundation.

This means that when you secure your place, you are not only investing in your own growth. You are also helping support work that creates opportunities and meaningful impact for others.

When one woman rises, she creates space for others to rise too.

Dress your best, but most importantly, choose something that feels like you. Elegance is encouraged; comfort and individuality are welcome
