Do you have any transportation recommendations?

We are big fans of ride share programs like lift and uber but NYC is known for their subway system.

No, the content is only for those in the room.

If for some reason I can’t attend do you offer refunds?

No, I’m sorry we do not.

What is there to do in NYC?

Alright, NYC first timers (and jaded locals pretending they’re too cool for Midtown) — here are 10 things everyone should see or experience in New York City at least once:

  1. A sunset walk across the Brooklyn Bridge
    Start in Manhattan, end in Brooklyn, then reward yourself with pizza because you’ve earned it.
  2. The Statue of Liberty + Ellis Island
    Even if you’ve seen a million photos, it hits different in person. History, views, goosebumps.
  3. Central Park like you’re in a movie
    Rent a bike, wander with a coffee, sit on a rock and contemplate your “main character era.”
  4. A Broadway show (or at least the chaos of Times Square at night)
    Broadway is electric. Times Square is… a fever dream. Both are iconic.
  5. Eat something legendary you’ll talk about for months
    Bagel with lox. Slice of pizza. Pastrami. Dumplings. Whatever it is: commit fully and don’t apologize.
  6. The Met or MoMA (pick your vibe)
    The Met is epic and endless. MoMA is modern and cool and makes you say things like “interesting” thoughtfully.
  7. Riding the Staten Island Ferry for the views (free, baby!)
    Peak NYC: stunning skyline, ocean wind, and you paid $0.00.
  8. A rooftop moment
    Cocktail, mocktail, seltzer, whatever — just get up high and stare at the skyline like you’re in a music video.
  9. Chinatown + Little Italy wander and snack crawl
    Dumplings, noodles, pastries, espresso, cannoli. You’re not lost. You’re exploring.
  10. Comedy or live jazz in a tiny room
    One of those nights where you laugh too hard or hear a trumpet solo that changes your brain chemistry.

✨ Bonus NYC truth: the city is best experienced by walking with no plan, turning left when you should’ve turned right, and “accidentally” finding something unforgettable.
