What you likely need
You're at an inflection point where your engineering leadership credibility is your biggest asset, but your coaching practice needs sharper positioning and a more systematic pipeline to scale. The highest-leverage Festival events for you are ones that put you in the room with Series B–D VPs of Engineering and fractional/independent operators who can become both clients and referral sources. You'd also benefit from gatherings that help you think through your dual identity as a coach and investor before one dilutes the other.
