Introducing our MC
Our MC for the event will be Yas Grigaliunas. Yas delves beyond the ‘showreel’ and revels in the ‘real reel.’ She evokes emotion, inspires introspection, and is boldly blunt in her unapologetic, unleashed, and unfiltered style. For Yas, being BRAVE means being Raw, Authentic, & Vulnerable every day. Yas is comfortable sharing her truth and evoking emotions. Traversing transitions and championing change is where she is most fearless, with a friendly and fanatical fortitude to encourage and empower others to find fullness & purpose.Introducing our Guest Speakers
