All About Go Wild | Planner Conference | My 2023 Go Wild Experience | What To Expect From The Event 

This will be my first Go Wild. You are the reason I started planning. I watched one of your videos in late 2019 and fell on love with it. So when you see me coming towards you saying “OMG OMG it’s Desiree”. That will be me :)

I'm a born and raised Texan from Fort Worth. So glad Go Wild is finally coming here. We have a theme park called Six Flags Over Texas in Arlington (Looney Tunes and Warner Bros character theme park), Fair Stock Show and Rodeo in Fort Worth, Big Tex at the State Fair usually in Dallas, and a few other attractions. Buc-ees is a really nice gas station similar to QuickTrip/RaceTrac/7-Eleven but it has several departments like a merch area, Dallas Cowboys merch, Texas merch, beaver mascot, food, camping gear, grocery areas, etc.

Thank you for sharing. I never heard of a Planner Conference...your information was very insightful.

When I found it was in Dallas this year (my backyard) I was so thrilled! I have never been but have always wanted to go! I hope I get a chance to say hi! I love your videos, so inspirational and fun to watch! Thank you!

I'm so glad to hear last years was so much better than Anaheim! That was my 4th one, and it was absolutely chaotic compared to years passed. It just wasn't the same! Anaheim was so "big brand" bc so many ppl pulled out. And it's not about the sponsors and stuff, it's the *people * that weren't there. They were giving away tables to companies to sponsor and putting tables together last min. I know so many ppl were disappointed overall bc it just wasn't what it was hyped up to be. I totally blame the pandemic!! I can't wait to see you again. And if I can, I'll get zebra again too!!

Holy cow that’s a whole vacation mini vacation but oh my goodness that is way too much money just for a planner conference! May I ask what do they actually talk about in the conference itself? Planning is pretty much a simple activity to do and it’s pretty much in layman terms super easy to plan. What on earth could they be doing a conference that would cost that much money? 3:54 3:57 4:00

Hi Desiree! It’s so nice to see you in person. Thanks for always getting back to my questions. You are SO kind! Keep up your channel. Enjoyed watching them.

Thanks for the video! I'm going for the first time - so excited! Hope to see you in person and say "Hi! I'm a HUGE fan!" 😊

Just started the video & wow I love your desk & chair set up in front of your window, looks stunning ❤

Great video! I live vicariously through you as you attend the Go Wild conferences! Looking forward to your experiences at next year’s event. BTW, your desk set up looks terrific as do you. Nice to see your face rather than just your hands!😊 You’re the first planner I watch as I start my day so thank you!💙💛🪴

Thank you for all the deets! You are making us all want to go ✈️. On a side note and not planner related …your hair is beautiful!

Thank you Desiree for all the info about Go Wild you have answered all of my questions I had. This will be my first Go Wild and I live near Austin, Texas so I will be driving up and staying at the hotel. Hope to meet you there. 😃

Thanks so much for such a nice honest review. This will be my first go wild and I’m so excited! Hoping to meet you at the event!

Buccees is a gaint truck stop. Super clean and nice for a giant gas station. We do it big in Texas!

I got my ticket! I'm really excited. I'm coming solo so kind of nervous, too

My 1st time! Excited of course but very nervous about it. I’m in a wheelchair and need assistance. They told me the conference and what not are ADA. Can’t wait to meet others.I’m going to be pretty much alone. No planner friends in person or I reach out to others and no return messages or short replies. Otherwise Texas is calling lol! 💜💛✨

Tfs, hopefully, I'll be able to attend Go Wild in 2025. Started saving money. Almost got to 1K. However I had to spend all that money. I was so upset and angry. Now I have to start from the ground up and start it all over again. 😢

The actress was Renée Elise Goldsberry. She was, in fact in Hamilton amongst other Broadway and tv shows. Haven't been to Go Wild but agree that if theres a celebrity speaker/guest, they should focus on planning.

Such a helpful overview thank you. It would be great to see what the Zebra table provided.

Is that your new desk? It's beautiful❤

Buc-Ee’s is a giant gas station. We have one here where I live.

Well, I'm seriously thinking about going after watching your video. I am hesitant because I don't know if there are any other 60-plus-year-old people going. I don't want to be the oldest one there 😂

$3000 ? you can spend a week or two in Japan, 1 month in Thailand / Bali Indonesia, or Europe (Rome / Paris) for 7-10 days, plus shopping plus enjoy delicious food. Anyway, thanks for your info... clear information.

I want to go this year but not sure yet.

Do they still have tickets?

Buc-ees is a massive gas station and truck stop. It is geared toward motorist, not truckers. Buc-ees is north of Dallas by 35 min or out West of DFW Airport by about 15 min. Do you know what the name of the hotel is? I'm wondering where in Dallas it is located. I live north of Dallas. 🎉😊

From my understanding listening to others who’ve gone to this conference before it’s a very overpriced conference. It is expensive and I’ve heard it wasn’t worth the price. That comes from multiple other people that I’ve listen to. I believe Jen shape and went there to Washington DC one and she said it was just really super expensive! Hopefully your experience is time in 2024 will be a great one! 2:03 2:06 2:12

How do you find out what sponsors/companies will be there? Was pilot there?

👋🏽💚

Hi there, really interesting topic on the Go Wild Conference. The Hotel is only opening in February, I do like the other hotel that is near a market, it’s called Live by Louws Arlington hotel, looks big, same company. Been so new Will the hotel be good. The Go Wild I think falls over four days instead of three. So there is that change. I agree about the celebrity issue, we need more people who actually do planning. To me they would be more famous. Some content creators are really good, so would be great for interviews. And a fan like me would appreciate meeting them. Been a boy the Go Wild is not really worthwhile for me to attend, a lot of the swag, would not be useful for me to use. It would be a waste of a ticket. I would only be interested to visit in a day just to meet the content creators, just to ask them questions. I wanted ask, if you meet any of the organisers, could you ask them why they cannot have a day where people can just buy a ticket for the day, and get a chance to meet content creators. It would be much better, and staying for four days would be a bit much for myself anyway. Like I say, the swag would not be useful, and not always of benefit to give away. Could you ask the organisers to film more of the speeches and talks so that people from around the world can hear about the ideas. I do get disappointed when the speeches are a bit emotionally charged, with not much content. I do think content where the planner world helps overcoming difficulties is more important. I do agree the DC hotel was not that good, and for the price, not really worth it. Thanks for sharing this video, much appreciated, your content is great, better than any celebrity.😊
