A Note from Your Host
Charity Hudnall,
CMO at Vagaro
Hey there! I’m Charity, the Chief Marketing Officer here at Vagaro—and the proud host of this year’s Iconic Festival. I created this event with one big goal in mind: to bring the brightest minds and boldest talent from the beauty, wellness, and fitness worlds together in one unforgettable place.
Over the years, I’ve seen how powerful this community is. You’re building businesses, changing lives, and redefining what success looks like on your own terms. You deserve a space that not only fuels your growth but celebrates your wins—and that’s exactly what Iconic is all about.
This isn’t your typical conference. It’s where strategy meets soul, where inspiration feels like a party, and where you’ll leave with real tools, real connections, and real momentum. I can’t wait to welcome you to Napa and experience this together.
See you at Iconic!
— Charity
