We invite you to ask questions and get an inside look at the hearts and minds of these courageous creatives. RSVP here!

Living with a chronic illness since childhood, Poet Gold, or as she is affectionately known as “Gold”, brings a soul-searching insight about the human existence, love, dreams, challenges, and triumph.
