MEET OUR OPENING KEYNOTE SPEAKER FOR THE 2024 FLOW BUSINESS CONFERENCE

It’s no April Fools joke! We are thrilled to announce that Dr. Adam Christman will be the opening Keynote Speaker at this year’s conference in Tucson! His Keynote is entitled:

“Navigating Success with the Power of Knowing Your ‘Why’”.

We are truly gifted that we have the privilege to get up and do what we love to do for the love of the human-animal bond in the triangle of pet care. Some days are more challenging than others but at the end of each day, a mission is accomplished, whether it be an individual task or a team effort. And all throughout the center of this is your "why".

Sometimes you ask yourself "WHYYYYYY?!" and other days you ask "what IS my why?" Knowing your "why" is the sum total of who you are in life. Has someone ever said to you, "I don't know who you are anymore!". Or even YOU may have asked yourself that! And that's ok.

Come laugh, learn and realize what your "why" is and how it will continue to ignite your purpose in life. The pet care industry needs you and I'm here to tell you WHY!

Learn more about Dr. Christman here.
