LOCAL EVENTS

The Economic Club of Southwestern Michigan Speakers Series, hosted by The Mendel Center at Lake Michigan College, is presenting a professional development and networking event for young professionals, career changers, aspiring entrepreneurs, and college and high school students when it welcomes author and business coach Damon Brown.

Damon Brown helps side hustlers, solopreneurs, and other non-traditional creatives bloom. A best-selling author and 4x TED Speaker, Damon co-founded the popular platonic connection app Cuddlr and led it to acquisition within a year, all while being the primary caretaker of his infant son. He now guides others through his consulting/coaching business, #BringYourWorth show on YouTube, and long-running Sane Success column in Inc. Magazine.

Damon’s latest book is Career Remix: Get the Gig You Want with the Skills You’ve Got (January 2022), the follow-up to his critically-acclaimed Build from Now: How to Know Your Power, See Your Abundance & Nourish the World and the best-seller The Ultimate Bite-Sized Entrepreneur: 76 Ways to Boost Time, Focus & Productivity on Your Big Idea. He was recently Entrepreneur-in-Residence at the Toledo Library <bit.ly/ToledoTalks>.

We often undervalue our services to the market, to our bank account, and to the world. During his inspirational and practical talk “How to Bring Your Worth,” Brown shares the best ways we can joyfully make a living off our craft, create business partnerships worthy of our skills, and truly be of service to others.

Admission: $20 – $35
