Keynote Speaker
Holly Hoffman
Professional Motivational Speaker & Author of 'Your Winner Within'
As we survive life’s challenges, we come face to face with fear and uncertainty. Challenges may allow us to step out of our comfort zone and push ourselves above and beyond our own self-limitations. It is how we choose to overcome challenges that make us who we are. It is our strength in times of difficulty that prove our character and self-worth. As I share my experience of being on a reality show, I encourage you to think about how you decide to survive on a daily basis. I will encourage you to think about six words to develop your survival skills. With my six simple words, you can take on any challenge you are faced with. Adversity is not so much contending with problems as it is learning more about who you really are and what is inside of you. Join me and explore what your true survival skills are.
Featured Survivor
Jenna Bell
Jenna Bell is a mom, Army Wife, daughter, keynote speaker, wine enthusiast, and a survivor of heart disease. When she was 23 she was diagnosed with a cardiomyopathy and told she was at risk for sudden cardiac death. She wouldn’t have a heart attack. Her heart would simply stop and she would die. Jenna was told that she would never have children and she would be living with heart disease her whole life. They were wrong. Jenna has two beautiful children who motivate her every day. She had a heart transplant that saved her life on February 16, 2016. Even with her new heart she will continue to fight for her heart, and yours, for many years to come.
