East Room presents Work/Life Live, a rare, unfiltered look at what it actually takes to rise: the pivots nobody saw coming, the pitfalls that almost ended it all, and the breakthroughs that changed everything. No polish, no soundbites, just real stories and practical wisdom from people who’ve lived it. In this session, we sat down with Erin Kleinberg for a candid conversation on reinventing yourself again and again: the risks, the pivots, and the lessons learned building brands across fashion, media, and beauty.

Now, we're bringing those conversations off the page and into the room. ​Featuring Gareth Brennan, Founder of Eventscape. ​East Room presents Work/Life Live, a rare, unfiltered look at what it actually takes to rise: the pivots nobody saw coming, the pitfalls that almost ended it all, and the breakthroughs that changed everything.
