A Night of Intimate Conversation and Inspiration with Rachel Parcell and Blue Sky Planners

Posted by Jordan Lee on November 15, 2022

On Thursday, October 13, I celebrated my second year of collaborating with Blue Sky Planners by hosting an intimate panel discussion event.

The panel was moderated by ABC 4's Nicea DeGering, and focused on the secrets to planning for success. I was joined by some amazing leaders and public figures in our local Utah community. The panelists alongside me for this memorable night included:

Dr. Julie Hanks, Therapist & Thought Leader
Lizi Heaps, "The Food Nanny"
Fatima Dedrickson, "StyleFitFatty"
Lindsay Arnold, Dancing with the Stars Pro

Momi Tu'ua, Utah's first Female School Principal of Color

We exchanged stories about how we started our businesses, our triumphs, our failures, and how we stay grounded and inspired. It was such a special night. I felt inspired, uplifted, and so grateful for the support of the amazing people in my community, near and far! You can shop this collection now at Target!
