Not Just Surviving but Thriving with Jennifer Gilbert
Jennifer Gilbert was violently attacked in the worst imaginable ways when she was just 22 years old
Her PAIN turned into PURPOSE as she decided to live her life surrounded by joy and celebration instead of fear and a place of victim and blame.
What started as a passion and healing quest turned into transformative, self-sustaining company.
But Jennifer did not stop there. Jennifer revolutionized the event planning world working with clients such as Google, Oprah Winfrey, the YMCA, the American Red Cross and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
This pioneering approach earned Jennifer Ernst & Young’s “Entrepreneur of the Year®” award and the opportunity to participate in MIT’s three year “Birthing of Giants” fellowship program.
She delivered a TEDx Talk on the “Entrepreneurial Spirit,” is a founding member of the Forbes Impact Summit, presented the keynote at BizBash and was EVEN a a fixture on a season of the Real Housewives of New York City as the event planner of choice.
Jennifer Gilbert today is the Founder and Chief Visionary Officer of Save the Date®, a New York City based hospitality and special events company celebrating 25 years in business with over $35 million in annual revenue.
