Movies That Motivate

Posted on December 7th, 2006 by Sacha Chua

Kevin McIntosh just linked me up with an interesting
motivational speaker named Emmanuel Lopez who’s starting a movie / networking series at the Royal Ontario Museum this January. =) Check out Emmanuel Lopez’s blog to find out more about the series and the guy!

You know what I *really* want? A weekly / monthly feel-good
conversation salon at which we talk about inspiring things and what’s
going *well*… A gratitude group, a happiness hangout, a joyful jubilee! =)
