With Karen Vadino you will laugh... a lot! She will give us the opportunity to discover our own sense of humor and define the steps necessary to put more humor and laughter in our lives. Come laugh with your colleagues because humor moves us into a thriving mode.
Trisha Meili shared her amazing story of survival and recovery in her best-selling memoir, I Am The Central Park Jogger: A Story of Hope and Possibility. Trisha's is not a story of an attack, but rather, one of healing. The support of her family, friends, healthcare workers, co-workers and strangers allowed her to move from victim to survivor.
