Yaroslava Gres, "Blue Dress". An evening of inspiration

YAROSLAWA GRES READS HER BEST TEXTS, TELLS INCREDIBLE STORIES, AND HELPS YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE. RIGHT THERE IN THE HALL.

Exactly 15 years ago, a story with a blue dress happened in the life of Yaroslava Gres. At that time, she was the world's youngest editor-in-chief of the magazine "HELLO!". Due to the global financial crisis, the magazine was closed. Yaroslava was left without a job and with a large mortgage on an apartment. At the same time, she was going through a difficult divorce and taking care of her daughter, who underwent heart surgery. And it would be nothing if she didn't have to buy the dress. The dress she wore to the last "HELLO!" and which cost $2,500. This dress became a symbol of great trials, experiences and success that eventually happened.

In 15 years, Yaroslava made her way to becoming the owner of the best communication agency in Europe, became a mother of four children, created outstanding projects with her team, wrote hundreds of inspiring stories that were shared by thousands of people on social networks. For the past two and a half years, she coordinated the work of the UNITED24 fundraising platform, which raised more than 650 million dollars in support of Ukraine.

In September 2024, Yaroslava created the Telegram channel "Storyteller". And it became a place where dreams come true. A place of extraordinary strength, mutual support and hope for the best.
