A Legacy Experience with Andy Bailey

Venue: Co-Lab
Location: Charlotte, North Carolina, United States

A Legacy Experience Andy & Katherine Bailey

Do you have a vision for your business. Do you have one for your family?

Join Andy and Katherine Bailey of Boundless for a unique two-day EO experience centered around something we rarely make enough time for: intentionally thinking about what we’re building beyond the business. Through meaningful conversation and interactive exercises, families will explore purpose, values, vision, communication and legacy - not simply what we hope to pass down, but how we help the next generation build meaningful lives of their own.

Friday, November 20 | Members + Adult ChildrenMembers and their adult children will come together for an interactive evening exploring family vision, values, expectations and the future — creating space for conversations that often get lost between busy lives, careers and businesses.

Saturday, November 21 | Members + Children Ages 10+Saturday begins with a kids-only working session where Andy and Katherine will help our younger next generation explore their own confidence, character, goals, leadership and vision for the future. Parents will then join the room, bringing everyone together to share, listen and turn those individual perspectives into meaningful family conversation.

Because the legacy we leave isn't simply what we build — it's what we help the next generation build for themselves.

Meet Andy & Katherine Bailey

Andy Bailey is a lifelong entrepreneur, author, speaker and coach who has spent more than 30 years building businesses and helping leaders create greater clarity, purpose and accountability in both business and life. He built his first company into an Inc. 500 business before successfully exiting, later founded Petra Coach, and has coached hundreds of business leaders and organizations. Andy is also the author of several books, including the Amazon bestseller No Try Only Do, and has completed executive education programs through Harvard Business School, MIT and Wharton

Today, Andy and his wife Katherine have turned their focus toward Boundless— helping individuals, couples and families become more intentional about the lives they're building. At their 111-acre Boundless Farm in Tennessee, they create experiences designed to get families away from everyday distractions and into meaningful conversations around purpose, relationships, goals and what matters most.

Together, Andy and Katherine bring a unique perspective to this EO experience: the same intentionality we use to build extraordinary businesses can also be used to build extraordinary lives and stronger families.


Havana Nights Holiday Party

5 December 2026 06:00 PM (GMT-05:00) Eastern Time (US & Canada)
Venue: The Lodge at Ballantyne
Location: Charlotte, North Carolina, United States

Join us as we close out the year in true EO style at our Havana Nights Holiday Party, an unforgettable evening filled with Latin flair, incredible food, handcrafted cocktails, live entertainment, and plenty of opportunities to celebrate alongside fellow EO members.

Set against the beautiful backdrop of The Ballantyne Lodge, this year's holiday party will transport you to a vibrant evening of music, dancing, and connection. Enjoy a delicious dinner, watch professional salsa dancers bring the energy to the room, then join in the fun as they lead us through an interactive salsa experience designed for everyone, whether you've danced before or not.

Throughout the evening, members can enjoy tequila tastings, cigar rolling, festive surprises, and plenty of time to relax, connect, and celebrate another incredible year together, or step outside to enjoy a fireside conversation and all the charm the Lodge has to offer.

Want to make a night of it? We've reserved the entire Ballantyne Lodge exclusively for EO Charlotte. For one night only, every room in the Lodge will be reserved for EO members and their guests, creating a private retreat-like experience unlike anything we've done before.

A limited number of rooms are available for $299 per couple and will be offered on a first-come, first-served basis. With only 40 rooms available, we expect them to go quickly. Reserve your room here: Reservation-Link 

Whether you join us for the evening or spend the night, Havana Nights promises to be the perfect way to celebrate the season, toast to another great year, and make memories with friends old and new.
