Friday, Dec 11: The Power of OneSM - Changing the World  One Person at a Time

Presenter: Allison Massari, https://allisonmassari.com/

• Hailed as “life-changing,” “riveting,” “extraordinary,” “bold,” and “deeply moving,” Allison Massari’s triumphant keynote is packed with poignancy and insight. As the survivor of two life-threatening car accidents, and having suffered second and third degree burns on more than half of her body, Allison shares her story of absolute loss, to forgiveness and understanding, and finally to success and a life beyond anything she could have imagined. Her dynamic and deeply moving keynote offers applicable tools to rise above any obstacle and find peace, purpose, and happiness despite turbulent times. As Allison states, “The truth is, that the same internal fire and ‘command of self’ that I needed to heal my life is exactly what has given me success professionally.”
