Vulnerageous on the Mainstage: What’s your story?

What have you learned from vulnerability and courage that shaped your journey and work in sustainability?

At the intersection of vulnerability and courage lies a powerful, transformative space we call Vulnerageous. It’s about being open and authentic, and brave enough to share our true selves. For the Trellis Impact 25 community, this combination sparks deep relationships and fuels our work as changemakers.

This year, we invite you to share a story that reflects our 2025 theme, Momentum is Balance. In a special session, bring your 2-minute story about how vulnerability and courage have shaped your journey. One story will be selected to share with the full community onstage during the Wednesday keynote and receive a complimentary pass to Trellis Impact in 2026.

Listen to this conversation (click here) between Noemí, Mohan and Jake to help craft your 2-minute story.

Vulnerageous is not just a concept; it’s a call to action. Share your story, and let’s progress together.

Important points about participation:

• Please arrive on time and plan to stay for the full session. This is an honest, supportive space for open sharing—phones silenced, confidentiality respected, and compassionate listening encouraged.
• This opportunity is open to all registered attendees. Please take a minute to share your interest for presenting by clicking this simple sign-up form link, so that we can track interest and run the session efficiently.
