WOW UniversityReset & Rise Summit
On December 19, 2026, WOW University is hosting the Reset & Rise Summit: a free summit to help people let go of what is buried in the ashes of this year and step into 2027.
It lands 25 years after the fire that started Obet Pabon's story. A week before Christmas in 2001, he stood barefoot in the snow and watched a fire take nearly everything he owned. His takeaway: ashes are what you plant in.
The summit is hosted and emceed by Obet Pabon II, founder of the WOW Legacy Movement. It is free to attend. Details and format are still coming together.
Speakers: applications are open. WOW University is looking for eight speakers who have lived their own version of this story. Sessions are pre-recorded, so you deliver yours on your own time.
Registration and speaker applications are on the event page.
Why it matters
Most of us drag the old year into the new one. The Reset & Rise Summit gives you a place to set it down on purpose. The idea comes straight from Obet's own story: you do not rebuild by pretending nothing burned. You plant in the ashes.
Who it is for
Anyone who wants to close out 2026 on purpose: people carrying a loss, a failed plan or a year that went sideways, and anyone who wants a clean start in 2027.
