Keynote Speaker Announced
You won’t want to miss our special keynote speaker. This year we have invited Kristi Johnson, RPR, an official from Rancho St. Margarita, Calif., to headline our Premier Session. A nearly fatal gunshot wound to her back forced Johnson to make some difficult decisions in 1997. Now paralyzed, she faced the choice of letting this catastrophic event define her for the rest of her life or accepting her new reality and digging deep within for the courage and resilience necessary to rebuild her life and reshape her future. Johnson chose the latter. Join us to hear Johnson share the hard-earned lessons from this challenging period and how the experience shaped her into the successful professional she is today.
