Summary

In this episode, Logan and guest co-host Vanessa Loney tackle a question every event professional should be asking themselves: Are you actually staying relevant, or are you just staying busy? They dig into what relevance really means in an ever-evolving industry — from how you network and which conferences are actually worth your time to how intentional you're being about vendor relationships and your own visibility. Whether you've been in the industry for two years or twenty, this episode is designed to bring intention and awareness to how you show up and grow in the events world.
