There’s something special coming to Toronto ladies and I can’t wait to share this news with you. Next Saturday September 29th at the Arta Gallery, I am going to be apart of the very first Millie Speaks event. Created by Founder Chelsea Brown, Millie is a new company that in all honesty has the capability of being something HUGE. The goal. To inspire and support women in their journey to LIVE TRUE through a series of speaker conferences and exclusive travel experiences. The inaugural female centric speaker series, appropriately titled, “Your Authentic Life” has been created for like-minded women looking to inspire and be inspired by each other. I am so deeply honoured to be a part of such a phenomenally diverse group of panelists and stoked to hear the stories and tales from the other women who I look up to so much. I’m really also looking forward to being totally candid with all of you in attendance and open up more about my personal journey to where I am today. A 38 year former athlete, turned Marketer, turned entrepreneur and mom to a 1 year old, who has overcome so much adversity to find my way to true happiness and success. I will get to speak to this more during the conference. Trust me, I am fully aware that happiness and success mean very different things to different people and having one doesn’t necessarily mean you have the other. Took me years and quite a few road bumps along the way to learn that.

So…what You Can Expect From Millie Speaks: Your Authentic Life? Over the course of the day, you will get to sit in on a series of three different panels showcasing women who champion as “Living Authentically” and courageously embracing what’s unique to them.  “The Everyday Heroine” who has achieved an impressive level of success but still experience an element on self doubt in their lives, and the “Adventurists” who have unlocked their own potential and greater perspective through travel”. The list of 10 panelists, including yours truly all bring different backgrounds, expertise and perspectives, which to me means there will at least be one panellist you’ll connect with on a deeper level.

The moderators aren’t to be outdone by the panelists and are a group of amazing women, some you may already know of; Noreen Flanagan Editor in Chief of Fashion Magazine, Sangita Patel from ET Canada, Sarah Daniel; Beauty Editor and Creator of The Hidden Beauty Podcast and Dominique Lamberton from OnRoute Magazine. Plus, two Key Note Speakers that will BLOW. YOUR. MIND.

In between all this amazingness…(yup, there’s more!) the day will kick off with an uplifting meditation. You’ll also get to check out the FASHION Magazine lounge, enjoy mini facials, hand massages and complimentary skin analysis from Caudalie – the ultimate brand in luxury skincare, fuel and refuel with great food, drinks and so much more.
