A connected, half day experience for women ready to step into their next chapter with clarity, courage,
and presence.

The Bold Start

Maybe you’ve built a career, raised a family, or spent years giving back to your community.
Now you’re at an inflection point. The path ahead calls for something more. More clarity. More purpose. More intention. You are ready to lead, but this time from wisdom, not hustle.
The Bold Start is a half-day experience for women who want to clearly define what comes next and move forward with confidence and presence.

This is where potential turns into momentum.

We are hosting four Bold Start sessions in 2026:
February 25
April 16
September 17
October 8
Each session is held from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at Bold Identity Studio in downtown Sioux Falls.

A bold start for women who are ready for what's next.

She has been a stylist and color consultant for House of Colour, a British company, for almost nine years.
