SUMMARY:Jim and Jamie Shiels present: Date Night with a Question
DESCRIPTION:Improving your relationship with your spouse is just as important as improving your business relationships. Do you give it the same level of attention? Do you have consistent routines or rhythms in place to deeply connect with and focus on your spouse?  \n\n\n\nAlthough the concept is widely known\, few couples actually use Date Night to its full potential. This simple rhythm\, when scheduled and kept as a top priority\, gives you and your spouse a known and trusted place to talk about successes and concerns within the family\, as well as how and in what direction your relationship is progressing. It opens up a world of communication & intimacy. You will know your spouse in a way that just simply is not possible without this regular rhythm. In true Date Night fashion\, this sweet evening will include time for cocktails\, a sit down dinner and dessert. \n\n\n\nJim & Jamie Sheils help busy professionals create deeper\, more connected\, more meaningful relationships with their spouses and children so they can have the family life they always imagined.

SUMMARY:Shark Week’s Paul de Gelder: Improvise\, Adapt\, & Overcome
DESCRIPTION:Shark Week’s Paul de Gelder: Improvise\, Adapt\, & OvercomeThese three words—a mantra Paul learned in the Australian Army as a young Paratrooper—resonated with him the first time he heard them. Paul chased adventure wherever he could find it. But trouble hunted him down in the form of a 10-foot bull shark in 2009 while diving for the Navy. Paul lost 2 limbs and his career as a Navy bomb disposal diver was flung into jeopardy. \n\n\n\nPaul will guide us through the journey of embracing uncomfortable change as a catalyst for growth\, understanding the lessons learned from facing challenges and setbacks. Lessons drawn from his military experiences will highlight the significance of teamwork\, discipline\, and adaptability in thriving in high-risk environments. Paul will also offer personal insights from surviving the life-threatening shark attack and shed light on the psychological and physical challenges of recovery. He’ll exploring strategies for developing a resilient mindset\, including the power of positive-thinking and self-belief. Paul is joining EO Detroit for this event to inspire and motivate us to embrace challenges as opportunities for growth and cultivate resilience in all areas of life. \n\n\n\nEO Detroit Members\, Accelerators and Strategic Alliance Partners are encouraged to invite a guest to join them.

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.
