State of the Union
In President Obama’s address to Congress and the nation last night, he vowed he would continue to fight for overhauls of health care, energy and education.
The president spent about two-thirds of his time discussing the economy, which is top of mind for Americans as the recession persists.
As individuals and organizations are still wondering how this will all affect their bottom line, they are turning to economist, Todd Buchholz.
By “connecting the dots” of the world economy with his program, “Is the Economy Headed Higher — or Off a Cliff?” Todd Buchholz will help his audience develop a vision for the economy and the stock market.

Haiti
Friday, January 15th, 2010There are not enough words or emotions to discuss the current situation in Haiti.
If you would like to hear the story of Rene Godefroy and the journey that has transformed his life, contact us at Speak, Inc.
- Born in a tiny, isolated village on the island of Haiti, Rene was an impoverished child tormented by extended illness. Abandoned by his father and left behind while his mother sought work in the city, he survived primarily on breadfruit and the occasional rare fish he caught with a string and hook. Unable to speak English, Rene arrived in America with just five dollars, two shirts and one pair of pants housed in a tattered briefcase. Where many would see nothing but overwhelming odds stacked against them, he saw an abundance of opportunity and a chance to pursue the American dream.
