About Event

Join us for an intimate fireside chat with Ilina Luthra, founder of Roster Radio, as she shares her non-linear journey across luxury fashion brands and emerging beauty brands, where she has led Marketing, Partnerships, and Community Engagement.

Through candid stories of career pivots, navigating layoffs, accidental entrepreneurship, and building a community from the ground up, Ilina will deliver a playbook on how intentional relationships and mission-driven work can become superchargers for new opportunities.

Whether you're looking to advance within your current company, explore a new industry, launch your own initiative, or simply build a stronger professional network, this conversation will leave you with actionable insights and inspiration for navigating your next chapter.

KEY TOPICS INCLUDE:

  • How to increase your visibility and build a personal brand that attracts opportunities, collaborations, and professional growth.

  • How to identify and carve out your own niche in any industry.

  • How community can accelerate career growth, whether you're looking to advance within a company, explore a new industry, or launch your own initiative.

  • How to leverage your strongest skills rather than focusing on what needs to be fixed or ‘improved.’

Note: Despite the Luma setting, tickets are non-refundable, as we order refreshments and swag bags based on the quantity of tickets sold and money raised. As a non-profit, we have a small team of volunteers that work to bring our events to life + all funds raised go back into each event we plan.

WALK-INS: Walk-ins are welcome, but they are not gauranteed entry! The best way to ensure entry is to join our waitlist, which will be opened up when space becomes available.
