Are you living your passions? Are you living the life you want? Come and join us to discover why it’s important to find your passions and live by them. Kirsi Paalanen, Certified Passion Test Facilitator, will be introducing all this starting at 7 PM to kick off the night on celebrating PASSION.

Studies show those who achieve enduring success are all passionate about what they are doing. Yet, 4 out of 5 working Americans are unhappy, unfulfilled and unsatisfied. Only 20% are living a passionate life.

As late icon, Steven Jobs so aptly advised Stanford students: “You’ve got to find what you love. And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle.”

Kirsi’s work is based on the Passion Test™. It is a profound yet simple process that helps you to gain clarity about your own personal passions and purpose. The Passion Test is used worldwide and has been most recently featured in Oprah Magazine. It was created by Janet Bray Attwood and Chris Attwood, authors of the NY Times bestselling book “The Passion Test – The Effortless Path to Discovering Your Destiny”.
