Momondays Expands Across Canada, Coming to Kelowna and Edmonton

    TORONTO, ON, November 19, 2014 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Introduced in February 2012, with just 15 people in the audience, momondays event now attracts over 100 people in Toronto. The event has expanded to 10 cities in Canada and keeps spreading across Canada, coming to its 11th city, Kelowna, on December 1st and its 12th city, Edmonton, on January 12th.

Momondays is for all kinds of people who have a great story and life lessons to share, from people who have never set foot on stage, to professional speakers and everyone in-between. Each event, there are six to eight speakers who tell a few personal stories. Some are funny, some are thought-provoking, but all are motivating.

For professional speakers, momondays offers an excellent opportunity to refine established bits or try out new stories. For non-professional speakers, momondays gives them a platform to share life lessons and in many cases, extraordinarily powerful stories that would otherwise never be heard. For the audience, momondays offers personal transformation packaged as professional entertainment.

For a world that is becoming more digital, more virtual and seemingly less human, it's a powerful combination that people today are hungry for.

Professional speaker and MC, Michel Neray, originally created the event to help his fellow speakers rehearse stories and develop new content for speeches, but the concept quickly caught on with the general public - especially after he expanded the concept to include non-professional people on stage.

Michel believes that aside from being great entertainment, momondays fills a real need for people: "Audiences are tired of canned speeches, negative rants and empty laughs. They want 'real' - real people, real stories and real inspiration. Momondays takes the audience on a roller coaster ride of emotions, leaving the audience feeling empowered and motivated."

Momondays seems to attract its fair share of speakers at every stage of their career, as well as people who go to traditional networking events; people who are interested in self-growth, and others who simply enjoy a fun night out.

Neray, the founder, further adds, "There are all kinds of networking events where you can connect with people on a professional level. There are dozens of events where you can 'get into the minds' of brilliant experts on countless subjects. But how many opportunities do we have to get into their hearts? By sharing our personal stories, we connect with each other at a deep and powerful human level. By openly sharing our personal stories, momondays is creating a ripple effect in the communities and organizations we belong to. We bring authenticity, openness, tolerance and love into the mainstream."

Put story-telling into a blender. Add a dash of personal growth & transformation. Then drop in a load of laughs. Mix in real, live music, and great conversation with some of the nicest people on the planet, then push the 'high' setting... and out comes momondays!
