Meet Your Speakers for The Comeback

Aug 02, 2022

The comeback is always stronger than the setback.

After a 2-year hiatus, Speaker Slam returns to Lula Lounge on August 16th, 2022. GET YOUR TICKET

The theme is The Comeback and it fits perfectly with where the world is. We were all impacted one way or another by the pandemic. For some of us, we lost our livelihoods and way of life. Mental health struggles were on the rise and we lost connection to our humanity. This was a time of reflection and healing. Discovering what was important in our lives.

The real glory is being knocked to your knees and then coming back. It's time to get back on our feet.

Join us as we celebrate stories of resilience and coming back from setbacks at this special Speaker Slam reunion of community!


I am super excited to celebrate these speakers on August 16th at Lula Lounge when they share their Comeback Stories:

1 - Mary Pomeroy-Brown - Resilience Coach, Entrepreneur, Wife, Mother, and most importantly, an Awesome Nana from Ontario Canada



As I get a little older, I realize that life is a true gift, and if we are not unwrapping all the paper, then we are doing ourselves and the world an injustice. I have bounced around so much in my lifetime that it is time NOW to live life with no excuses, be my authentic self, and shine. I choose happiness every day and inspire others to do likewise. Just Be Happy!

As a systems strategist and lover of operations, I bring the HOW to the WHY's of audacious thinkers, heart-centered leaders, and world changers. There's nothing I love more than seeing a plan come together and seeing evolution happen at a community level. I love cycling, pop culture podcasts, romance novels, and hanging with my dog, Riesling. Yes, like the wine.
