Lori Pappas' Bio
Lori Pappas is a humanitarian, entrepreneur, and survivor who has turned adversity into a source of wisdom and inspiration. From a traumatic childhood to the heights of success in the tech world, Lori has navigated a life filled with extraordinary experiences and profound lessons.
As a teenager, Lori faced a turbulent upbringing, including being committed to a mental institution by her parents. Escaping those challenges, she built a successful career in the male-dominated tech industry, becoming an award-winning and nationally acclaimed businesswoman. But her personal life was a different story, marked by difficult relationships and the struggles of balancing motherhood, marriage, and a demanding career.
After selling her company for millions, Lori could have settled into a comfortable retirement. Instead, she embarked on a new adventure, founding a non-profit organization and moving to Ethiopia to help marginalized communities.
Lori's journey has been one of resilience, self-discovery, and a relentless pursuit of purpose. Her experiences have given her a unique perspective on the power of saying “yes” to new opportunities, embracing change, and living a life aligned with one's values.
In her book, The Magic of Yes: Embrace the Wise Woman Within, Lori shares her story and the wisdom she has gained, offering readers a path to overcoming challenges, finding inner peace, and living a more fulfilling life.
