I have always felt led to do public speaking. Coming from someone who was incredibly shy and reserved most of my early life, it is quite a surprise to me too. The way I have always envisioned this happening was in front of a live audience, on a stage, to feel the energy of the crowd and to interact and give back so much passion and energy. I know that I have this unique gift and it requires no prep, drop me on a stage now and I will FLOW and connect with my audience.

Well, due to Covid, my first Keynote speaker address was virtual but an amazing and fulfilling experience regardless. The opportunity arose really out of chance. An old Twitter acquaintance had reconnected after years and she reached out to ask me if I would be willing to speak for the opening of their Annual Writers Conference (Rave Reviews Book Club). I was so excited but also I was entering uncharted waters. I think it is natural to have pause when one of your dreams comes true.

It was such an incredible experience. I truly connected with flow and gave my address for a little over 20 mins. My friend who asked me to speak called me before she was done viewing it and was almost in tears how moved she was. She said “If you aren’t doing this for a living, you NEED TO!” The feedback from all the members who saw it was so touching and inspiring.

I am so honored to have had this opportunity and I know future ones will come. This is an example of connecting with a calling, with entering a pure flow state. This is being a vehicle for God. I was not nervous and really didn’t prepare other than a one word outline. I am so grateful to have had this experience and to know that my gift was used to lift others up.

You too have a gift, a talent, something that you lose yourself in and that can help others too. Let that gift out! The day will come when I get to get on a stage, feed off the energy of the room and flow to serve others.
