We’ve all been told that competition is the secret sauce to success. Hustle harder. Outshine the next person. Play the damn game. But what if that story is a lie?

In her groundbreaking new book, Uncompete: Rejecting Competition to Unlock Success, strategist and author Ruchika T. Malhotra flips the script and shows us how competition actually fuels burnout, anxiety, and isolation, and why it’s time to ditch the scarcity mindset once and for all.

Instead of battling for a seat at the table, Ruchika lays out a bold new framework for building success through collaboration, solidarity, and abundance. Drawing from her work as a leading inclusion strategist, interviews with leaders across industries, and fresh research, she proves what we’ve always known deep down: when we celebrate each other’s wins and lift as we climb, we all f*cking rise.

Join us for an evening of conversation, connection, and a chance to grab your copy of Uncompete. Because the future of success isn’t dog-eat-dog. It’s community-powered.
