From The Heart
***TRIGGER WARNING**** This episode contains mention of drug use, fraud, arrest and prison time. Connie Paglianiti is a dynamic keynote and motivational speaker, best seller author, and award-winning event manager with over 40 years of experience in the industry. Having faced and overcome a gambling addiction that led to life-altering consequences, she now uses her lived experience to break the stigma around addiction and inspire others on the path to recovery. Through her powerful storytelling, Connie speaks on resilience, transformation, and second chances, sharing how she rebuilt her life after hitting rock bottom. She is the author of From the Shadows into the Light: Breaking Free from Stigma and Scandal, a deeply personal and powerful book that sheds light on the realities of addiction, the journey to redemption, and the courage to start over. In addition to her advocacy work, Connie is the founder of WeSocialise, where she teaches aspiring and seasoned event professionals how to run successful, high-impact events through her online course, launching in 2025. Connie’s mission is twofold: to empower those struggling with addiction to take control of their future and to help event professionals thrive by learning from real-world experience rather than just theory. Whether speaking on stage, hosting workshops, or coaching, Connie’s message is one of hope, reinvention, and the power of turning adversity into opportunity.
