# Event Details - **Event Name**: When You ARE The Business! - **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 16 Sep, 2026 at 11:00 am – Wed, 16 Sep, 2026 at 01:00 pm (-06:00) - **Event Description**: When you own a business, the line between who you are and what you do can become difficult to see. Your reputation, income, responsibilities, and sense of purpose may all feel connected to the business. When the business succeeds, you feel successful. When it struggles, the pressure can feel deeply personal. But what happens when your capacity changes, your role must evolve, or the identity that helped you build the business begins holding you back? In this interactive Business Decision Series™ session, Lauren Colizza will help business owners examine the connection between identity, performance, and leadership. Drawing from her experience working with elite athletes, military personnel, first responders, tactical teams, and high-performing leaders, Lauren will explore what happens when the person behind the business is under pressure. Together, we will explore how to: > Recognize when your identity has become too closely tied to business performance > Understand how pressure affects your thinking, leadership, and decisions > Adapt when your capacity, circumstances, or role changes > Separate your personal worth from a difficult business season > Build a stronger, more sustainable definition of success You will leave with a clearer understanding of what may be driving your decisions, practical ways to navigate change, and a healthier foundation for leading both yourself and your business. Featured Facilitator: Lauren Colizza Strategic Advisor, Keynote Speaker, and Performance & Leadership Strategist Colizza Performance and Consulting Lauren brings championship experience, performance science, and more than two decades of work with high performers under pressure. A National Collegiate Figure Skating Champion and two-time Golden Gloves Boxing Champion, she understands firsthand what it means to build an identity around performance and what it takes to redefine yourself when circumstances change.
