Halifax Women's Network is starting 2005 with an exciting speaker - Tyler Hayden.  Tyler is a professional speaker and innovative educator. His business is personal development and nontraditional teambuilding programs.  The secret to Tyler’s success is his ability to entertain, enlighten and empower his audiences.  Join us for an evening where you will 'Laugh uncontrollably and learn unknowingly' with the members and friends of the Halifax Women's Network.
 

 "If you are looking for a stuffed shirt presentation and a quick nap – I’m not that guy. My shows are innovative, fast paced, and interactive - and that doesn’t mean Powerpoint, it means Rubber Chickens and exploding Rubber Gloves. So make sure you buckle up, ‘cause it’s one heck of a ride! "


Livin’ Life Large - This presentation is about creating that entrepreneurial spirit to achieve great things! There is no such thing as failure. Plan your prosperity. And above all, join me in living every single moment of every single day! (www.tylerhayden.com)

About Our Guest:  

 Please join us as we listen to a wonderful local artist, photographer and story-teller share the story in his most recent book:  "Peggy of the Cove".  This story is a must-hear for local residents, as well as, guests from away, as it is a heart-warming  and interesting story.  Please note the Mr. Ivan Fraser will be available for a book-signing opportunity following the dinner.  

Ivan Fraser is an established artist and photographer, born and raised in Nova Scotia. He uses watercolors and photography to share quiet areas as well as the awesome power and majesty of the sea. With his work portraying wonderful light, "serene, peaceful, and etheral" are perhaps the most common words used to describe his images. Fishing villages and abandoned buildings are also some of his favorite subjects. With the ocean in his front yard and the woods at back, Ivan has developed a great love for nature. His work has been shown and sold extensively in Atlantic Canada and Ontario.
