Welcome!

The theme for Lucky Life Fest 2025:

The Transformative Power of Making the Right Bets

Lucky Life Fest is a full-day experience dedicated to exploring how bold decisions, smart risks, and everyday strategies can completely shift the odds in your favor.

We are truly excited about the inspiring speakers we have lined up for Lucky Life Fest 2025! They’ll show how the “game” of life changes when you know where and when to place your bets.

We had our most exciting Lucky Life Fest so far! It was a full day of inspiration and energy, exploring the many ways that smart choices and bold bets can transform the game of our lives.

If you missed Lucky Life Fest this year, don’t worry — get ready for the next round! Planning for next year’s Fest begins soon, and we’d love to have you with us from the start.

If you’d like to join the Lucky Living Network (LLN) mailing list, we’ll keep you updated about upcoming meet-ups, community gatherings, themed sessions, and of course, next year’s Lucky Life Fest. Click here to add your name to the LLN email list.

Delisa also introduced the Lucky Living Network Online (luckylivingnetwork.com). This new project aims to connect people who want to share experiences, ideas, and strategies with others who are curious about reshaping their odds in life. The activity doesn’t need to be about risk or chance — but whatever the setting, it’s all about making choices that stack the deck in your favor.

We’re just at the early stages of this project and welcome anyone interested in helping us build it further. Reach out to Delisa or Charlie Renideo (907-355-2245) if you’d like to get involved.

Research shows that people who place their bets on consistent, smart lifestyle choices often enjoy longer, healthier lives — and in many cases can even turn the odds against challenges that once seemed impossible to overcome.

This year's speakers:

Ocean Robbins – Ocean Robbins is the co-founder and CEO of the Life Strategy Network, a global community of more than 350,000 people learning how to make smarter moves and raise the odds of success in health, lifestyle, and mindset.

He co-authored, together with his father John Robbins, the bestselling book Voices of the Life Revolution, inspiring readers to take control of their own “game plan.”

At just 16, he also co-founded Youth for Smart Choices (YES!), which he led for 20 years — showing how bold decisions at the right moment can change the course of an entire generation.

Ron's Alaska VegFest talk title:
The Power of Plants and the Transformation of American Healthcare

An Alaskan whose personal journey took a winning turn after discovering how the right daily choices — learned through one of Delisa Renideo’s Life Strategy and Cooking Classes — can completely shift the odds in the game of life.

Anna Luby - Back in 2009, Anna felt the odds were stacked against her: she was 70 pounds overweight and had just been diagnosed with diabetes. Working in a kidney dialysis center, she knew the risks all too well. In March 2010, she decided to change her strategy — placing her bets on healthier choices and smarter moves. The result? She’s back to her college weight and has completely turned the game around, reversing her diabetes.

Click here to learn more about Anna and see how her story proves that changing your strategy can completely shift the odds in your favor.

Delisa Renideo - MC of Lucky Life Fest and President of the Lucky Living Network. She teaches life strategy and smart choice “masterclasses” through her program, Yes To Life Solutions. Over the last 11 years, she has guided thousands of students in learning how to play the game of life with stronger hands and better odds — and she’s still just as excited about helping each individual transform their own strategy.
