In follow-up to our November event in New York City, we brought Reset the Table back to Los Angeles on December 9th, 2022. For re—inc, live gatherings that create space for conversation and community have always been part of our strategy. We exist to boldly reimagine the status quo, and we can’t do it alone. Through the art of gathering, we find kindred spirits to help us scale our collective impact.

In celebration of our re—inc x Angel City FC x Klarna collaboration, the New Everyone Club, we gathered a group of diverse voices for an engaging conversation around a new and inclusive way forward.

The evening was hosted by re—inc Co-Founders Christen Press & Tobin Heath alongside ACFC Co-Founders Kara Nortman & Julie Urhman. We had a meaningful, nourishing conversation with folks from different backgrounds, industries, and perspectives on how we create inclusive spaces.

A thank you to Klarna, an ally in change, for making this special evening possible.

Please read on for event takeaways and some inspiration for your own gatherings.

The consensus: inclusivity is the new exclusivity.

From our guests, rediscover resources for provocation and changemaking:
