Portrait of a Different Thinker
Dante will talk about his own life story in living with autism spectrum disorder and how he has worked hard to get where he is through therapy, hard work, a good support system, and opportunities to grow. He will also touch upon how education should be tailored for students on the autism spectrum.
Dante Natarelli, 17, lives in NYC with his family and attends a wonderfully supportive school. He also volunteers with young kids on the autism spectrum.
Reboot: how I restarted my mid-life career by attending 100 events and leaving 1000 comments online.
Tereza Nemessanyi is a leading media and technology innovator. Companies she has worked with, at senior levels, include PwC, IBM, The Walt Disney Company, Unilever and Omnicom. As Founder/CEO of HonestlyNow.com, she won acclaim as one of Forbes “Ten Female Entrepeneurs to Watch”.
Special Guest Artist
Todd Reynolds, violinist, composer, educator and technologist is known as one of the founding fathers of the hybrid-musician movement and one of the most active and versatile proponents of what he calls ‘present music’. The violinist of choice for Steve Reich, Meredith Monk, Bang on a Can, and a founder of the string quartet known as Ethel, his compositional and performance style is a hybrid of old and new technology, multi-disciplinary aesthetic and pan-genre composition and improvisation. Reynolds’ music has been called “a charming, multi-mood extravaganza, playful like Milhaud, but hard-edged like Hendrix” (Strings Magazine), and his countless premieres and performances of everything from classical music to Jazz to Rock‘n’Roll seem to redefine the concert hall and underground club as undeniably and unavoidably intertwined. Amazon rated his 2011 release, Outerborough best of classical. It’s an Innova Recordings double CD featuring InSide, a collection of his own music, paired with OutSide, music written by a veritable who’s who of contemporary composers.
Filmmaker
Jeff Buccellato is an award winning filmmaker with years of experience creating narrative and documentary film through his production company Expansion Pictures as well as promotional media such as commercials, public service announcements and company / organization documentaries and promotional videos. His work has been seen in film festivals throughout the United States, broadcast television and scores of websites.

LIVE SPEAKERS
Facing Fears as the Gateway to Freedom
What do you do when the life you’re living no longer fits on the foundation where it’s settled? How do you access the strength to make a dramatic shift when your whole world is rocked? Witness as Nancy shares how she courageously reclaimed her life as her 18-year marriage ended. As you hear her story, you too will discover that the gateway to freedom lives in the space between facing our greatest fears and the magnificent, unforeseen opportunities awaiting us once we do.

Slow Down – The Power of SLOW in our Fast-Paced Culture
Slow down. Exhale, again, Soften the eyes and the corners of the mouth. all the way to the end of the breath. exhale….
Feel the soles of your feet connected to the earth beneath you.
Lengthen the spine, lifting the back of the head toward the heavens.
Soften the jaw, and the space between the eyebrows. Let the shoulders drop away from the ears. Exhale…. Inhale, lifting the heart forward and up. Soften the shoulders. Bring the awareness to the breath, soft and still. Stillness of body. Silence of speech. Spaciousness of mind.
By bringing the awareness to the breath and allowing it to be still and slow, we create awareness of the present moment. The body becomes still, the inner voice that narrates your life become silent and the mind opens to a spaciousness that allows you to act, rather than react in your old patterns of behavior.
Slowing down allows you to be every good thing you’ve ever hoped and wanted to be.
Molly Dahl is a delightful woman who teaches the Truth of how to bridge the gap between the Every-Day self and the Divine Self.
Celebrating the Abilities of People with Disabilities – a Cultural Movement
The general idea of the human experience is extremely restricted and narrow and is related to how people with disabilities continue to be primarily viewed and treated as the “other” in society. I look forward to expanding on this theory and discussing a groundbreaking movement that could rise from celebrating the diverse, intricate and valuable aspects of each person’s identity and abilities.
Jordan is the CEO of Miss Amazing Inc. and a sophomore at NYU, Jordan Somer believes in living a balanced life, embracing opportunities, exchanging ideas, and drinking coffee.
Women Helping Women: How To Bring About Real Change
Learn how women in Southern Ethiopia changed their communities from the inside by leading their friends in frank discussions about poverty and how they might address it. Some of these women had been forcibly married as young as age 14 and were expected to have as many as 12 children. They initiated open discussion about family planning for the first time ever. True change happens when people work together. That is an “idea worth spreading.”
Lara Crampe has worked with US and international communities for more than 13 years fighting poverty through community education and empowerment. She hails from West Virginia.
Deep Charisma: The Energy of Influence
Within seconds of meeting you, people form a lasting yet unconscious impression—whether they like, trust, respect or want to do business with you. We may think the factors that govern this lasting, gut-level impression are physical when in fact the energy involved is invisible. This astounding power to fascinate, ethically influence and persuade, to create transcendent moments when you speak, is available to anyone who knows how to harness it- and it doesn’t come from Powerpoints® or designer shoes. Susan Berkley solves the hidden mystery of charisma and shows you the #1 way to harness the astonishing energy of influence it in your very next presentation.

Work Hard & Play Nice
I believe in the spirit of New York — that anyone can change their life with hard work, but does that mean you need to become a heartless career climber to make it? In this short talk, we will explore the ways in which helping others helps us to live a determined, brave, and fearless life. We will explore how I ambition and kindness aren’t mutually exclusive.

I Don’t Dance
Do you dance? The majority of you answering this question right now are probably saying “no”. In a generation disconnected from movement, we have failed to acknowledge dance’s potential of accessing all of our intelligences and contributing positively to our understanding of the world. Yvonne Chow’s facetiously titled talk, “I Don’t Dance.”, is an invitation into the work of Safi A. Thomas’ brainchild, “The BLADE Dance Technique®” where she takes you on a journey through Dance Heuristics® to posit that we ALL must start dancing!
Mentored by Safi Thomas under The BLADE Dance Technique®, Yvonne Chow has cultivated a pedagogical expertise as Education Director of H+ | The Hip-Hop Dance Conservatory.
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure
There is a disease-driven model in healthcare. I can eat myself to three hundred pounds and there’s a magic pill to cure me. Genes are not destiny in health and disease and the role of environment in diseases are completely ignored by traditional medicine. An example would be heavy metals and their role in thyroid dysfunction. I have so much of my own experience with hypothyroidism. The role of prevention should be enhanced and I would like to cite an example such as the idea of organic acid testing; which is a simple urine test that gives insight into function of whole body including vitamin deficiencies, antioxidant deficiencies, energy status and neurotransmitter deficiencies. Listen in and learn about what can make you healthier in 2013 and for life.
