Spark + Hustle: What Do You Want To Be When You Grow Up?

You've likely seen her on Good Morning America dishing out advice on all things career-centric.  From job fairs to best practices, Tory Johnson started building her empire from a small corner in her home and with $5000.  In her 11th year of being an entrepreneur, Tori has helped countless people tap into their talent and walk into their professional purpose.

I've admired her from afar like millions of others, I'm sure.  She's beautiful, brilliant, funny and driven.  Then she called. Yes...Tory Johnson and her team reached out to me. I kid you not...it was like getting a call from Madame O.  When Tory Johnson calls, you answer.  As it turns out, Tory has birthed a genius of a concept called Spark + Hustle.  It's a 3-day conference that will be held here in Atlanta from July 29-31.  The conference pulls together some of the most dynamic businesswomen from all walks of life.  From corporate scions to entrepreneurs, this hand-picked group of experts to share their journeys and their smarts with others trying to turn their passions into dollars.  The whole event has an unconference-like spin.  As long as I've been around (and I'm no spring chicken), I've rarely seen a concept so innovative.

I'm so excited about it that I can hardly breathe. Paper bag, please. Amongst other things that I'll share in due time, I will kick off the conference on Saturday morning sharing how I've turned my passion (being The Broke Socialite, that is) into profit with attendees. Did I say that I can't wait? OK...don't mean to be obnoxious.

Tori and her team are offering a special discount to The Broke Socialite readers.  When you register, enter the discount code: TBS and you'll receive $200 off. You read it right. $200. Talk about a budget-friendly deal. It's nearly 25% off.  If you're at a crossroads about what you want to be when you grow up and want to be inspired, join us.  Registration is here.
