F*ckUp Nights Team

F*uckUp YYC - The Crew Behind the Chaos
Hosts: Shahr Savizi & Amanda Ovaici

The FuckUp Nights YYC team is a collective of community builders and catalysts dedicated to tearing down the facade of "perfect" professionalism. Led by Shahr Savizi and Amanda Ovaici, the pair are on a mission to destigmatize professional failure through radical vulnerability and the power of raw storytelling.

By hosting high-impact events that celebrate the messy, human side of business setbacks, Shahr, Amanda, and their team foster a resilient entrepreneurial ecosystem in Calgary. Their work encourages local leaders to:

Embrace Transparency: Shedding the "hustle culture" mask for honest, authentic growth.

Drive Resilience: Learning more from a collapse than a win to build stronger ventures.

Foster Meaningful Connections: Creating a professional landscape rooted in shared experience and grit.

In a world obsessed with highlight reels, the team is here to remind us that our biggest blunders are often our greatest lessons. They aren't just hosting an event; they’re building a culture where Calgary’s leaders can fail forward, together.
