We think the word ultimate gets thrown around a lot these days – but when it comes to HudCo, we mean it.
Ultimate HudCo Day is our letter to this community: a full day of learning, laughing, connecting, and discovering what makes this space so special. Whether you’re a HudCo regular or a first-timer who’s been meaning to check us out, October 30 is your moment.
Members, this one’s on us! No check-in required, just come in, grab a coffee, and dive in. Everyone else? Grab a day pass and come experience the magic.
Croissants, Coffee, and Clarity
The day begins the way every great day should, with coffee, croissants, and conversation. Our team will be there to welcome you, guide you, and set you up for a day of good energy and even better people.
At 10 AM, leadership coach and author David Spinks kicks off the first session, Unstuck!. It’s a workshop designed to help you quiet the noise, find clarity, and make more confident decisions (aka: everything we all need before another busy season begins). Expect guided exercises, small group work, and those “aha” moments that remind you you’re on the right track.
Meanwhile, at the HudCo Bar, Allison Schulte, founder of the Rivertowns Dispatch, will be hanging out to talk all things local journalism. She’s building a paper that reflects the heart of the Rivertowns, and she wants to hear from you.
Lunch & Learn
No HudCo event is complete without good food and smart people. Join AI strategist and professor Karen Kranack for a Lunch & Learn featuring soup and salad from Jody’s Kitchen. She’s giving a crash course in the latest AI tools, trends, and tips for working smarter (and more creatively) in a world that’s constantly changing.
Headshots, Healing, and Fresh Perspectives
The afternoon is all about taking care of you in whatever way you need it.
If you’ve been meaning to update your headshot (and let’s be honest, it’s probably time), photographer Alison Sheehy and hair and makeup artist Ilise Harris will be offering Mini Headshots in the afternoon. Professional lighting, expert touch-ups, and a relaxed HudCo vibe — plus, booking a headshot gives you a complimentary day pass!
Need a reset? Step into a 25-minute Quick Reset coaching session with Elizabeth Knell, or drop by the wellness corner for EarSeeds with Elizabeth Roper Wilde, an acupuncturist and herbalist who’ll help you rebalance and recharge in under ten minutes.
And if you’ve got a big idea that’s been stuck on your to-do list, Crystal Bave of Clarity Project Management will be running one-on-one Let’s Get It Done sessions all morning. (Yes, that’s Crystal who used to work at HudCo!)
Tea and Tarot
We’ll close the day with a little HudCo-style magic: Tea & Spirits: A Revery Happy Hour hosted by Sarah Epps and Sandra Dawn of Revery. Think herbal teas, HudCo cocktails, and Bloomy Cheese & Provisions with a side of tarot, oracle cards, and good conversation.
It’s the perfect way to wind down, reflect on the day, and maybe even gain a little insight from the universe.
Why We Call It “Ultimate”
Because it’s the best of what we do! Bringing together creative minds, big ideas, and genuine community under one (beautifully designed) roof.
Whether you come for one session or spend the whole day here, you’ll leave feeling refreshed, inspired, and reminded of why this place exists: to help people connect, create, and thrive.
So join us. Bring a friend. Bring your curiosity. And get ready for the Ultimate HudCo Day.
