SUMMARY:Founders Spark - Orgins - Finding Your Fire
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” overlay_strength=”0.3″ shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_link_target=”_self” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column_text]To most\, Theoplis Smith\, also known as Phresh Laundry\, is widely known as an artist. His artwork covers a wide range of topics from racism and gun violence in America\, to powerful stories of victory and triumph. He’s captured the attention of his celebrity subjects and has been acknowledged by the likes of stars such as Gene Simmons and Erykah Badu. While his career as an artist has caught fire\, he’s also a father of two\, a husband\, a son\, and a man with a story to share with the world. \nTheo’s inclination to creativity started at the young age of three. One of four boys\, his creativity was sparked and encouraged by his parents. His father\, an oil painter\, and his mother\, a seamstress\, his upbringing gave him a lot of permission to exercise his creative muscles and express himself. As Theo grew older\, however\, he found himself frustrated with his lack of direction and identity. While others flourished and followed their paths\, Theo felt he was at a loss. \nEventually\, Theo realized that he felt the most value and worth when he painted. Ultimately\, was able to find himself in his art. Thus\, it gave rise to Phresh Laundry. The name comes from the powerful stories he tells through his art\, where he “hangs his laundry” for the world to see. Theo’s art shows his powerful perspective and is meant to spark conversation and dialogue among people. The bold messages he puts out through his art tell stories of mercy\, empowerment\, triumph\, or sometimes\, just really dope art.\n_________________________________________________________ \nJoin us as for a discussion with Theoplis Smith about his journey with Phresh Laundry and about finding what sparked his fire through the noise of life. We’ll dive into the personal challenges he faced in finding his authenticity and how following that authenticity led him to a passionate and fulfilling career that has influenced and touched so many. \nThere will be a cash bar\, hot drinks\, & food provided by Caliente![/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” overlay_strength=”0.3″ shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_link_target=”_self” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][nectar_btn size=”large” open_new_tab=”true” button_style=”regular” button_color_2=”Accent-Color” icon_family=”fontawesome” url=”https://www.eventbrite.com/e/theoplis-smith-finding-your-fire-tickets-55921321177?fbclid=IwAR0Xzo_ciUBQqHq4SXevpYZPjQjXsAJ0IYMOW6KApVBdQbGvB2xx_PyQxFw” text=”Register For Event”][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:GFW Inc. Women's Network - Leadercast Next Luncheon Series

Our notebook is filled with life changing principles and new ideas that could move us to become the leader we desire to be. However…once we return to the grind of the day those conference notebooks full of ideas get shut in a desk drawer and never make it to the light of day. We want to partner with you to put an end to this “leadership stifling” pattern. \nThis past November\, GFW Inc. hosted the Leadercast Women event. It provided an empowering leadership experience for men and women alike. Attendees were able to listen to leaders from all walks of life and learn powerful leadership insights from the all-female speaker lineup. \nLeadercast NEXT Luncheon is a series of “best of” leadership concepts and principles from the Leadercast Women’s event. We want to help you take your and your organization’s leadership to an entirely new level. Once a month beginning in January\, leaders of every kind will gather for lunch and deep discussions on key leadership principles. These leadership luncheons are open to anyone who wants to learn\, grow and take their leadership to the NEXT level. \nThe January Leadercast Next luncheon will feature the topic “The Art of Real Conversation” with Celeste Headlee. “Real conversation requires a mutual exchange where both people are changed by what’s happening. When you talk\, you are repeating what you already know. But if you listen\, you learn something new.” \n\nHave better conversations\, not necessarily more.\nWe’re in a distraction epidemic. Multitasking will reduce the quality of tasks by 25 percent.\nListen to the people who don’t agree with you. Listening is not endorsement or support.\n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” overlay_strength=”0.3″ shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_link_target=”_self” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][nectar_btn size=”large” open_new_tab=”true” button_style=”regular” button_color_2=”Accent-Color” icon_family=”fontawesome” url=”https://fwchamber.chambermaster.com/eventregistration/register/9940″ text=”Register For Event”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
