Who will you meet at Poppy Candid?

Women and allies who are just like you. Who are thoughtful, ambitious and in the rich, complex middle or senior part of their careers and seeking growth, transformation or just a good conversation to shake things up.

They’re sharp.

Curious.

Craving something real that isn’t on the screen in front of them.

They are all about truth-telling, resource-sharing, and making connections that open doors.

They represent nearly every industry present in the Seattle-area.

Leaders.

Owners.

Doers.

And above all - good humans.

Poppy Candid is for you if

  • You’re done keeping your raw, unfiltered thoughts in your Notes app and group chats, and ready to say them out loud.

  • You’re craving honest conversations about ambition, money, power, identity, growth and health - all the topics that we women aren't talking about enough.

  • You’re in the full, complex middle or senior stretch of your career and want to keep evolving, not plateauing.

  • You’re energized by sharp, generous people who stretch you and stand for you.

  • You believe meaningful connection matters as much as momentum, and the right room can change both.

  • You think growth should feel alive: vibrant spaces, unfiltered panels, real dialogue, and connections that last.
