Mark Nelson O’Brien is a thinker and does something about it. He writes. “A popular expression says Everybody’s got a story- I’m luckier than most, I have many.” (descriptor for Random Thoughts: A Writer’s Notebook). His writing and conversations dig deep into the territory of Entertainment and inspiration. Our conversation/storytelling session with Mark will be chockful of stories that invite interpretation and fun!
Mark tells us stories of being unfocused and confused – and yet “never afraid of change” – He just knew he was not cut out for corporate bureaucracy. Not good at being anonymous or invisible. And that’s worked out just fine.

Susan Sneath
Susan is a coach and performer who has spent over 20 years helping people bring their visions to life ranging from creating an Alberta Centre for Peace and Meditation to the largest Fringe Theatre Festival in North America. Whether it was the retired accountant turned harpist stricken with nerves before performing that she asked, “What do you know to be true?” They went still and entered their zone of flow.
Susan Sneath is really very quiet and subdued...when she sleeps! When she’s awake, she takes the business of life very seriously, she loves to laugh!
As a Coach “Susan provides a vibrant and intuitive approach to coaching. I have worked with Susan for a number of years and as such have received continuous positive feedback from clients who have benefited from both her engaging presentation style and strong ability to connect with them as she guides them to explore and resolve challenges and find success. Her sense of humour is just a bonus!”
