Most business events celebrate the win. This one is about the mess.
Every founder story eventually reaches the parts that don’t make the LinkedIn post. The hire that didn’t work out. The season that broke you. The conversation you avoided too long. The morning you almost quit.
Once a month at Messed Up Mondays, one of those founders sits down and tells you all of it. Not the polished version. The one they almost couldn’t share out loud.
This Monday, September 14th in Edmonton, we are learning from Wilson Wong, a co-founder of Boa & Hare, CRW Orient Coffee, Van Loc, and a champion for revitalization in Chinatown and downtown Edmonton.
“My purpose is rooted in the revitalization of Edmonton’s Chinatown through entrepreneurship, sport, and mentorship.” - Wilson Wong
We would love you to join us for this free event!
What to Expect
• The real stories behind the polished version, told without script or stage performance
• A live Q&A where you can ask the questions you actually want answered
• Pre and post event networking with a room full of founders, operators, and people doing the work
• Bar and food available throughout the evening
• A reminder that bad seasons in business aren’t the end of the story. They’re part of it.
Who this is for
Founders. Operators. Team leads. People running real businesses with real teams and real payroll. Anyone who has read the leadership books, tried the frameworks, and felt the gap between what the book said and how it actually went. Anyone going through a hard season right now, fresh out of one, or about to walk into one without knowing it yet. You belong in this room.
