The Courage to Belong: How Resilience and Connection Shape Our Stories
May 7 @ 5:30 PM - 9:00 PM
Registration for this event has now closed.
Please join us at Radicle Personhood™: A Persons Day Celebration, where we’ll continue the conversation on belonging.

Have you ever stepped into a space and wondered, Do I really belong here?
Quiet Tenacity and Garden of Even are partnering to offer an evening of thought-provoking conversations, storytelling, and connection as we explore the power of belonging, the resilience of women, and the cultural curiosity that fuels our sense of home—no matter where we are.
This exclusive in-person event will take place at the Verity Club, a space designed to empower and connect women and will include immersive storytelling, art, music, bites, experiential learning and networking.
Through storytelling, history, and sharing real-life experiences of displacement and adaptation, we’ll uncover:
- The power of choice – finding empowerment in disempowering circumstances by recognizing how belonging starts with deciding I am here.
- The strength of showing up – Why presence and persistence lead to opportunity.
- The courage to take risks – How curiosity and bold moves can shift your journey from survival to thriving.
- The role of community – How we build spaces of support, together.
This is more than a talk—it’s an invitation to reclaim your story, step into your strength, and find a deeper sense of belonging wherever you are.
Event highlights include:
- Two inspiring TED style keynotes
- Immersive networking in an elevated space perfect to explore and share our personal stories and memories
- Interactive viewing of the Garden of Even Art Exhibition
- Numbered limited edition Garden of Even print with each registration
- Refreshments: bites and bar
Come ready to reflect, connect, and walk away empowered.
Kadie Philp
Women have always been present, shaping the world around them. But their stories and impact have been downplayed, ridiculed and trivialized, which has negatively shaped how we see and value women, and how women see and value themselves, for millennia.
Kadie Philp is on a mission to change that. Through art and storytelling, Kadie uses her Garden of Even interactive art exhibition as a platform for personal and professional discovery and growth.
Together, Kadie and her audiences uncover the stories that have shaped our worldview, biases, and how we see ourselves and others. Audiences leave feeling inspired and expanded with reclaimed confidence, clarity, and creativity through transformative storytelling, immersive experiences, and bold new narratives.

Inna’s approach is rooted in education, experience, and an unshakable belief that when people truly understand one another, they don’t just work better together—they thrive.
