Unstoppable Tracy

With humor and motivation, you can crush your obstacles and soar to the top! No matter where you are in life, sometimes you just need to be inspired. You are a great leader pushing to drive your inner power. That's never easy. And sometimes you will feel like you can't do it anymore, any better, or any other way. Well, in 'Unstoppable You', Unstoppable Tracy helps you see that you can conquer your impossible. With a laugh, Tracy helps you turn ordinary days into extraordinary today

"Crack the Lim[b]itless Secret to an unstoppable you with insight to overcome barriers, uncertainty, and fear...and become the super-hero you always knew you could be! If I Can Do It You Can Do It! What's Your Excuse"?!

Career Compass by Community Living Essex County

Career Compass, the employment services team at Community Living Essex County will provide an overview of the different services they offer. They will also debunk some of the myths that Employers have about hiring someone with a disability, along with the myths that some people have around working while on ODSP. The audience will hear first hand from someone gainfully employed in their community about the impact it has had on their life.
