SUMMARY:Gaby Natale - Pioneer
DESCRIPTION:In a surprising turn of events\, the originally scheduled speaker for the upcoming June 21st event in Detroit\, Speech Thomas\, will not be able to attend due to health reasons. However\, this setback has allowed for an exciting opportunity to arise – Gaby Natale will be joining us instead. Gaby Natale is a trailblazer in her own right\, having made history as the first Latina in the history of US television to win three back-to-back Daytime EMMYs and the first Latina to be published by HarperCollins Leadership. She will share her inspiring message on embracing your uniqueness\, breaking barriers\, and redefining what is possible in her keynote speech titled “Pioneer.” \n\n\n\nOne of the key takeaways from Gaby’s speech is the importance of identifying and cultivating an individual’s potential for greatness. She encourages attendees to embrace a sense of purpose to become an agent of positive change and to understand the difference between the Emulator mindset and the Pioneer spirit. By converting enthusiasm into fuel and learning to blunt adversity\, Gaby Natale’s keynote offers a roadmap for anyone looking to make a difference in their lives and the world around them. \n\n\n\nIn conclusion\, while we were disappointed to hear that Speech Thomas will not be able to attend the upcoming event\, we are thrilled to announce that Gaby Natale will be joining us instead. Her keynote speech promises to be empowering\, uplifting\, and full of actionable advice for anyone looking to make a meaningful change in their lives.  \n\n\n\nwww.gabynatale.com \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nFor EO Detroit Members\, Accelerators and Strategic Alliance Partners one one guest.

SUMMARY:Dave Coulier: Failing My Way to Succes
DESCRIPTION:Failing My Way To Success\n\n\n\nA Lifetime in Show Business with Dave Coulier \n\n\n\nFor every success Dave Coulier has had in his career\, he can count at least fifty (yes FIFTY!) failures.  So\, he’ll tell you\, that if you’re failing (a lot)\, that usually means you’re on your way to a career. \n\n\n\nWhen he was 19\, Robin Williams pulled Dave aside\, backstage at the Comedy Store in LA and told him\, “Showbiz is 10% show and 90% business.”  And in his experience\, that has shown to be very true. There’s no magic bullet when it comes to having a successful career; an extremely hard work ethic and persistence are your most valuable tools. Dave’s worked very hard for his success – and still does today. Because no one cares how talented you are in this business if you’re not making them money.  You’ll be considered a genius if your “project” makes everyone gazillions!  With today’s access to instant connectivity\, even those in show business can position themselves to do the bulk of their work at home. \n\n\n\nSo please join Emmy Award winner Dave Coulier for a fantastic keynote and an open discussion at the place where it all began – Mark Ridley’s Comedy Castle as he shares his journey about how he “Failed his way to success\,” being a sitcom actor on “Full House” and “Fuller House\,” directing TV sitcoms\, doing voiceovers for animation\, movies and commercials\, standup comedy\, writing\, producing and hosting cable and network TV shows.
