SPEAKING ENGAGEMENTS
Bring the inspiring and reassuring
message of Shine to life at your next group event
Seeing the big picture in today’s hectic world can be a challenge. Shine’s universal message of love, hope and value is a reminder that we all have something special within us. It’s a reassuring message that Shine’s author, Mary Obana, can bring to life in an unforgettable way as a featured speaker at your next team meeting or group gathering.
With her natural warmth and positive energy, Mary develops an immediate connection with your audience to communicate powerful messages of hope, excitement and encouragement.
As a successful businesswoman and entrepreneur, Mary has developed a unique skill for delivering messages that both inspire and are relevant to the practicalities of our day-to-day world. She has been a keynote speaker at national conferences, hosted sales meetings and corporate retreats, and run countless team meetings in smaller, more individual settings.
No matter who we are or what we do, we all are called to find and share the unique “light” that lives inside us. Make plans today to have Mary spread this uplifting message of purpose to the people you value most.
