Episode Overview
Every year, Theresa Laurico puts on one of the largest entrepreneurship conferences in the country as part of her mission to light up Canada’s young professionals. The SociaLIGHT conference brings together entrepreneurs, influencers. Global leaders and everyone in between to jumpstart a movement that creates a positive impact on communities and the world. “When you think of a flourishing future for the world, one of the things that I think a lot of entrepreneurs miss is that you yourself must also flourish.” Theresa’s many achievements were not reached without facing beyond her fair share of obstacles along the way – including a near-death experience two years ago. In this week’s #StartupPodcast, host Rivers Corbett talks to Theresa about what SociaLIGHT means to her, her journey as a social impact entrepreneur and why she chooses to think of her accident as a miracle.
