SHIFT25 is about saying goodbye to corporate cliches and bringing together the real, raw, and dynamic voices shaping the future of leadership, wellness, business, and culture. As we gear up for a day packed with insight and bold ideas, here’s a look at the SHIFT disturbers who’ll be taking the stage.
Nicholas Reichenbach, founder of Flow Water, will explore how reinvention isn’t just a survival tactic but a growth strategy in his talk “Flow: Pivot or Die.” he’ll explore. He will be digging into what it takes to adapt and grow in a changing world, especially when standing still isn’t an option.

We shift gears with Myles Doak, an entrepreneur and pitch-master who reminds us that great ideas don’t sell themselves – great stories do. His session unpacks how to pitch anything with confidence, whether you’re on a stage or selling a side hustle.
