UPDATED: Upcoming Good Girl Chronicles Events & Appearances (Sept 2018)

Lolo is Back with some Awesome Community Events


Hey Team Good Girl. That is my cute moniker for people who follow me on social media and on this blog. I believe we're all in this together. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for following my journey. This past year I've grown my social media presence, storytelling, advocacy, speaking, and consulting in some amazing ways. One of my favorite things to do as a business owner is to host small events that inspire, educate, and empower people. So here is the list of my upcoming events and how you can join the fun. 


Shatter the Silence: 



 UPDATE: Due to the upcoming storm Hurricane Florence, Shatter the Silence was postponed to November 2. I will have more details as they become available. 

Pretty stoked about this one. Ya girl Lauren Hope AKA is hosting the third annual Shatter the Silence event in Norfolk. As a suicide attempt survivor, storyteller, and Certified Peer Recovery Specialist this event is near and dear to my heart. I have shared my story at this event the past two years.

Shatter the Silence is a collaborative suicide prevention event for Hampton Roads Roads. The focus of the conference is to create a community that talks about suicide openly and honestly and seeks help for friends and themselves. Speakers and presenters include: Lauren Hope, Teens with a Purpose, Local Poets, Michelle Peterson and many more!! *all speakers and presenters are subject to change. Spread the word! To adults, youth groups, sports teams, clubs, professionals, etc. EVERYONE IS WELCOME and the event is FREE!! Doors Open at 4:30 with pizza and drinks served at 5pm.  SEPTEMBER 14!

 TALK SAVES LIVES with American Foundation for Suicide Prevention
This past year I have increased my role with the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention or AFSP. I have recently become a volunteer and board member of this amazing non-profit. One of my missions as a board member is to bring more suicide prevention training to Hampton Roads. September 19th I'll be giving a Talk Saves Lives presentation at the Downtown Portsmouth Library from 12:30 p.m. to 1:30 p.m. Come and learn about the issue of suicide, how to help those who are struggling, and where to get help. Here is the Facebook events link to the training - https://www.facebook.com/events/468966536912769/https://www.facebook.com/events/468966536912769/




Good Girl Chronicles StoryTelling Night
I believe everyone has a powerful story and most people want to tell it. That is why I am hosting my first Storytelling night September 28, 2018 at Bearded Bird Norfolk,VA from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. A diverse mixture of storytellers will take the stage and share their truth. This event is free and open to the public. I will be taking donations for my LLC Good Girl Chronicles.
