I’m Speaking at the Chicago Theater for the Together Tour!
Hey boos hey! It’s been a super busy fall for me as I’ve been on the incredible Together Tour! What’s that? It’s a tour that was co-founded by agent extraordinaire Jennifer Rudolph Walsh and best-selling author Glennon Doyle to bring women in a room for a night of radical transparency and inspiration through the power of storytelling. We are making space for women and girls to be empowered to create change, to laugh, to be encouraged, and to have the audacity to dream big.
Abby Wambach (soccer legend) is also headlining, and Latham Thomas (doula to the stars) is our movement guru.
We’ve been on this journey since mid-September. and let me tell you. This has been an AWESOME time, and I’ve been able to fall in love over and over with my Together family. I feel so thankful every time I get to share a stage with such unicorns and we are the unbreakable Wolfpack.

The love we’ve gotten from people after each stop astounds me, fills my spirit and makes my heart sing. After each one, people send messages and leave comments about how much the show meant to them and I am affirmed about how special what we’re doing is.
We have been to Portland, Seattle, San Jose, Phoenix, Austin, DC, Nashville, Minneapolis. This week wraps it up in Chicago and Philadelphia. We’ve sold out 3,000 seat theaters around the country.
CHICAGO!!! My home! I am SUPER excited that tomorrow (October 24) is the hometown stop.We will be joined by Jamia Wilson and Ibtihaj Muhammad. And y’all. I’m gonna be taking the stage at the historic Chicago Theater. The same stage I JUST saw Chris Rock perform last month. ME. CHILE WHAT? #LOOKATGAWD ????????????
It would mean a lot to me if you come. The show starts at 6:30pm, and doors open at 5:30. Tickets start at $25 because we wanted to make sure this tour would not lock folks out purely because of cost. So many of these types of rooms exclude women who aren’t balling, so tickets are cheaper than expected on purpose!
Sooo, friends. Come see me do the thing I love tomorrow. This is home. I need my people in the building. Get your tickets at TogetherLive.com.
And if y’all wanna know the rest of my speaking schedule, check out my website Luvvie.org. I might be in your area soon.
It is time to write that book. Come into The Book Academy and learn how to go from IDEA to INK.

I work for Ancestry and caught the end of your segment in Minneapolis. Although I couldn’t watch all of Together, I made sure here in Chicago, I could watch all of your piece. You are inspiring and love your sense of humor. So glad I could be there. Thanks for the fearless inspiration. <3
I was there! You were fantastic and I am excited to follow you and consider myself a new fan. I’ve been a Glennon girl for ages and was unfamiliar with your work before this. Thank you for your honesty, humor, wit and vibrance on stage. I am struggling now to find my grove/purpose/job/career/hustle after leaving the workforce a decade ago to mom full time to my 4 babies. They are growing and it’s me time again….except I have no clue what I want to do, other than I’m not compromising and I’m dreaming big. Something at the intersection of photography/writing/communication/storytelling/graphic design. Any ideas? LOL. I love hearing other’s stories and how they stumbled onto their gig. Thanks for the inspiration!
