'Reinvention'
Hosted by blogger & motivational speaker Michael Ian Cedar
Want to feel inspired? This quirky take on storytelling events will entertain AND get you thinking about your life in new ways. The performers and presenters are all people who gave a middle finger to the status quo. If you want to leave something great behind, you will want to hear first-hand tales from those who are already making their mark.
The theme for this upcoming show is “Reinvention” – Michael Ian Cedar will give the role-models the opportunity to talk about how they gave their lives and their careers a second chance.
*The producer(s) of this event hold no responsibility in the event that you quit your job after attending this show.
