The #IMakeaLiving event brings together creatives, entrepreneurs & small business owners for a lively, candid and often hilarious conversation.

Part small business boot camp, part group therapy you’ll leave feeling inspired and motivated. Plus, you’ll get lots of actionable insights to take you and your business to the next level. (And, no, this isn’t one of those events that’s actually a sales pitch)

After the discussion, the event opens up for boozy networking.

And here’s a new update to #IMakeaLiving: themes. Starting this month, events will focus on one topic to help guide the conversation and keep things fresh. Portland’s theme is Being Your Own Boss, how to hustle and own it.

On the panel: Aaron Draplin, Courtenay Hameister, Jack Phan & Nathalie Weinstein.
