Hey Friend! When I was first asked to speak at a live event, my initial thought was, 'I can't.' If you had asked me a year ago, I would have said, 'No!' and probably given every reason why I couldn't, shouldn't, and wouldn't do it (my schedule, my kids, etc.) I had all the excuses. The truth is, I was afraid. But I finally said yes, and I'm so glad I did! Today, I'm so excited to share all the personal nuggets, wins, and lessons I learned from my very first (very fancy) keynote speaking engagement. I'm taking you through my thought process from a place of fear to getting myself to a 'Yes!' to going and, finally, executing. Have you ever said a big, scary yes to something you were afraid to do? I want to take you along with me as I recap what I expected to gain from this experience to what I actually got out of it, and I hope to inspire you in the areas where you may be afraid to say yes and show you that you can do it too! I pray this blesses you!
