Guest Speaker
Kane Rozell, Ourglass Life Coaching
Kane specializes in the art and science of personal transformation. He started off with a cat and mouse analogy that illustrated the importance of creatively overcoming obstacles. He changed his own life to help others change theirs. He outlined 3 tools to get better results and move towards your goals, called Dream Principles. #1 - design your dream, since clarity is power. #2 - decide on your dream, and you will be ready and energized. #3 - befriend your fears, and continue to do the work you set out to do. Then, keep at it! Because remember, weeds come back :).

The Revs are the only original MLS team to have every league game in their history televised.
