I Wish I'd Quit Sooner Book Launch - General Admission Ticket

Celebrate Dr. Laura’s book launch and experience a special preview of her 2026 TED Talk Style talk.  

Looking for the perfect excuse to duck out of work early on a chilly Tuesday? 

 
Join us on January 13th inside the iconic Dome at Contemporary Calgary (the Old Science Centre) for an energizing, inspiring evening with Dr. Laura, celebrating the launch of her new book, I Wish I’d Quit Sooner: Practical Strategies for Navigating a Toxic Boss. 

 

This special event features: 

• A powerful TED style talk where Dr. Laura shares the pivotal moments that shaped her journey into helping people navigate toxic bosses 

• Getting your book copy (or copies!) signed. 

• Connection with other professionals, HR leadership and community members who value honest conversation on a globally impactful topic 

 

You’ll also catch Dr. Laura later that week on CTV’s The Social and Global’s The Morning Show or at SXSW in March - but this evening is your chance to hear her message before it goes public. 

 
Books will be available and she’d love to sign your copy. If you or someone you care about has ever dealt with a toxic boss, and let’s be honest, most of us have, this is the book to share. 

 

The session is free, with options to pre-purchase a book(s) or drink ticket(s). Please note: there are various ticket options to secure your copy and pre-order one of our signature ‘Toxic Boss’ Cocktails ahead of time.
