I’m Connie Paglianiti, a speaker, bestselling author and event producer who speaks about second chances, gambling harm, red flags and rebuilding after crisis.

My memoir, From the Shadows Into the Light, shares my lived experience of betrayal, gambling harm, prison, shame, accountability and starting again.

I don’t speak from theory. I speak from life.

Through honest storytelling and practical insight, I help audiences understand the warning signs we ignore, the cost of silence, and why it is never too late to face the truth, rebuild trust and create a different future.
