What’s Your Story Event Helps People Heal Through Stories - Oct. 14-15
People who have overcome traumatic and adverse situations share their stories of how they have achieved their dreams and passion.
The healing power of stories is being featured at the inaugural What’s Your Story event on Friday, Oct.14 and Saturday, Oct. 15 at the Ahern Hotel. Featured presenters include people who have overcome traumatic and adverse situations to achieve their dreams and passion.
What’s Your Story founders Missy Day and Michelle Hausbeck are holding the event to inspire hope and encouragement to others. “All of us go through trials in order for us to grow and become who we’re meant to be,” they said. “Our stories matter; but more importantly, we go through these situations so we can help others move through theirs and know they’re not alone. What’s Your Story will be inspirational, empowering, and fun.”
Speakers, including Gary Miracle, Dean Smith, Jeff Barnes, Briell Decker, and Enzo Perez, will share their stories detailing how they persevered through loss of a loved one, trauma, illness, murder, abuse or addiction.
