Keynote Speakers

On Tuesday, May 20, Anthony Robles will speak to attendees at breakfast. Robles was born without a right leg, yet he never let disability stop him from achieving his dreams. With unrelenting determination – and the belief that he could do anything – he defied all odds and became a champion collegiate wrestler, competing against able-bodied athletes. An NCAA Division I Champion, three-time All-American, and a recipient of the ESPY Jimmy V Award for Perseverance, Robles inspires others to believe that they too can overcome the odds.

In this moving, awe-inspiring presentation, he shares his extraordinary life story – now chronicled on the big screen in a major motion picture starring Jennifer Lopez and Jharrel Jerome – and illustrates how perseverance, hard work, and a strong belief in yourself can not only lead you to success but make you unstoppable.

On Wednesday morning, May 21, join Kentucky Department for Public Health (KDPH) Commissioner Steven J. Stack, MD, MBA as he discusses, “Our Healthy Kentucky Home,” a Team Kentucky initiative with the KDPH. The program will engage and inspire Kentuckians on a personal journey of achievable health and wellness improvements through increased physical activity, improved nutritional health, and decreased social isolation through targeted interventions.
