So Can I

Lauren Cunningham

The So Can I podcast is a place that inspires, motivates, and encourages women to step out in faith, follow the dreams that have always been on their hearts, and have a little fun while doing it. Each week, Lauren will talk with different women who do the unexpected and think outside of the box. We cover it all: the good, the bad, the beginning, the how, the why, and most importantly, the journey. You will leave each episode thinking, “If she can do it, So Can I."

    Planning Events and Empowering Working Moms with Justine Converse and April Zorsky of Brigade Events

    Today I am joined by Justine Converse and April Zorsky!  Brigade Events is a women-owned event strategy firm behind some of the most high-profile gatherings in the world. Founded by Justine and April, the firm is redefining modern leadership and company culture by proving that care is a competitive advantage. Born from a shared frustration at watching talented women leave the workforce to raise families, Brigade was built to prove there’s a better way - one where women can lead, parent, and thrive simultaneously. Today, the team produces everything from intimate leadership summits to large-scale global conferences attended by thousands, all while modeling the future of flexible, human-centered work. Brigade’s progressive policies - including its signature “Transition Month” re-entry phase - have been featured in TIME and USA Today as national models for supporting working parents. Through both their work and their editorial series, The Fine Line, Justine and April are sparking a larger movement around empathy-driven leadership and what it truly means to build a workplace, and a world, where women don’t have to choose.  In this episode we talk about how April and Justine got their starts in the event planning industry, their time working at the Bush Center, starting an event planning company one year before the pandemic, their incredible maternity leave policy, and so much more!
