Fight Like a Girl:
Driving Change Outside the Ring
With success comes responsibility.
I was raised to believe that when you're in a position to give back, you should.
It's a lesson I was taught early in life—and one I carry with me today as a founder and a leader.
That’s why I made the decision, through Tarden Advisory Services, to sponsor this year’s “Fight Like a Girl” Charity Smoker, hosted by Community Over Competition Foundation and CoC founder Crystal H.
An all-female fight card—ten powerful matchups driving real change outside the ring.

Embracing the Future:
Year One in Review
Written by Eric Sedlacek, Founder of Tarden Advisory Services
It’s hard for me to believe that a year has already passed since the launch of Tarden Advisory Services. This last year has been a powerful learning experience, filled with challenges that pushed me to grow, innovate, and stay ahead of an ever-evolving industry.
I’ve been reflecting on what the journey has taught me because every milestone is an opportunity to step back and force oneself to assess their progress.

Three years. Hundreds of hours. One win that changed everything.
Two weeks ago, Sincerus was awarded a prime seat on the State Department’s GLOBALCAP IDIQ, a contract that will shape how the U.S. responds to global instability for the next decade.
For me, this was more than just the biggest capture I have ever led. It was about the journey. The strategy. And the persistence to keep moving forward when the process and the headwinds made it anything but easy.
Eighteen months of disciplined capture work laid the foundation. When the RFP hit, the challenges got real. But we stayed purposeful, methodical, and united.
At Tarden, our mission is to help clients navigate complexity with clarity and purpose, and this milestone reflects exactly that.
