Molly Bloom is an inspirational keynote speaker, entrepreneur, and bestselling author of Molly’s Game. She is best known for her memoir, Molly’s Game, which was adapted into an award-winning film of the same name by Aaron Sorkin. Bloom’s memoir chronicles her journey from college student to LA waitress to building and operating the largest and most notorious private poker game in the world. Her games featured hundreds of millions of dollars and players like Leonardo DiCaprio, Tobey Maguire, A-Rod, and Ben Affleck. Bloom began her career as a world-class skier. While training as a pre-teen she was diagnosed with severe scoliosis and had to undergo surgery that the doctors said would end her athletic career. A year later, fully recovered, she was back on the slopes. She later joined the U.S. Ski Team and at 21 years old was ranked No. 3 in North America in moguls, but her Olympic dreams would go unrealized as she left the team to pursue other projects. This led her to what she thought would be a year sabbatical in LA. Bloom was finishing her degree in Political Science from the University of Colorado – Boulder, and was in the process of applying to top tier Law Schools, when her assistant job turned her into an accidental entrepreneur, running one of the most exclusive, high-stakes underground poker games in the world, pulling in as much as $4 million per year. What happened next is where her story truly begins. The film Molly’s Game, written and directed by Aaron Sorkin, stars Jessica Chastain (as Molly), Idris Elba, Kevin Costner, Michael Cera, Brian d’Arcy James, and Chris O’Dowd. Bloom has appeared on numerous shows and in media outlets such as Ellen, Vice, The Los Angeles Times, NPR, Vulture, and has been asked to speak at Fortune’s Most Powerful Women, for companies like Blackrock Financial, SiriusXM Radio, and will deliver the 2018 commencement speech at Colorado State University. Bloom is now focused on building WeWork for female entrepreneurs. For years

The Brothers Koren, Isaac and Thorald, are not just artists; they are visionary leaders committed to unlocking the profound potential of music, song, and voice, crafting transformative experiences that cultivate connection, foster teamwork, and ignite inspiration. The essence of their work is human interaction and they are masterful at creating safe and fun spaces in any environment. Their mission? To explore the peak of human potential using song & music as a model of collaboration. By using their innate musicality, their keynotes focus on culture building, creativity and inspiration. Hailing from Australia, the Brothers Koren embarked on an odyssey, drawn by their fiercely independent mother's quest to reclaim her voice—a voice that once echoed on the stages of the original cast of 'HAIR'. Landing in NYC in 2001, they aspired to global acclaim, envisioning themselves as the biggest band on the planet. Their musical journey as 'The Kin' spanned 15 years, from the hush of empty dive bars to the roaring applause of millions, culminating in a coveted gold record. Their talent took them around the globe, sharing stages with the likes of Coldplay, P!NK, Bon Jovi, and Rod Stewart. However, amidst the glittering success lay a void—a yearning for authenticity and a sense of unfulfillment. In a defining moment of clarity, the brothers envisioned a new path: to be guides, mentors, 'brothers' to others, nurturing and championing their voices, just as they wished someone had done for them. This epiphany birthed 'The Songwriter’s Journey' in 2015—an immersive expedition from the birth of a song to its soulful sharing. This endeavor was just the beginning. Today, the Brothers Koren have fostered thousands of voices, from diverse backgrounds, through a myriad of programs. Their work illuminated the pervasive issue of 'VOICE TRAUMA', underscoring the voice's vulnerability and its unparalleled power to influence and incite change.
