Just Make Sure You Lead the Second Time Around”

If you weren’t even in the running for prom queen, or basketball MVP, if you can’t get into a speedo, or think a BlackBerry is something to eat, this event is for you. Gay or straight, the experience of not quite fitting in is a common one. With humor and compassion, motivational speaker Tom Froehlich shows that even our most oppressive experiences hold the key to a rich and fulfilled life.

Much to his surprise, Tom Froehlich grew up gay in a conservative Midwestern town. His experiences trying to fit in, trying to hide, trying to adapt, led him down many interesting career paths. He has been a graphic designer, writer, owned and operated a pottery studio, bartended, traveled the world buying beautiful things with someone else’s money, and taught art and math to kindergarteners.  His is the co-creator of the inspirational book, “101 Suggestions for Better Living”, and has recently completed his book of inspirational and humorous essays, “It Happened Along the Way”.

Whether you grew up poor, fat, gay, red haired, too tall or too skinny, Tom’s insight and witticisms will help you revisit the tired old demons of the past, leave them behind and move forward. He encourages you to not only accept your differences, but celebrate them as these are the things that make you uniquely you.
