I DID IT! WHAT AN AMAZING EXPERIENCE!
The TEDx stage is one of the most amazing events of my life! Thank you, TEDx Billings, MT! The learning, the writing, the practices of LEADR and the planning, AND the host, the workers, the performers, everyone and everything involved in the hosting of the event! Lights, camera, action! WOW!
The most miraculous part was the comfort zone I actually felt on the stage standing on the red dot! No comparison with the nervousness of my practices, especially in front of my own camera. I was well prepared!
THANK YOU to LEADR for all the hard work you did/do in getting us prepared for our moment to share with the world! The coaches are absolutely phenomenal - Ean, Illona, Tonya, Korbin and I know there are others that perhaps I only encountered once or twice. The majority of my path’s time was spent with Ean in the beginning and Korbin at the end.
Ean laid the groundwork working with me over and over again with tweaks and suggestions that only made it better every time. Korbin kicked it up a notch when Ean moved on and I finished my journey with her fully prepared to shout to the world.
For all who read this post, your time will come and believe me you WILL be prepared - not to worry! Never give up, keep attending practice and sending out those apps, and be ready for the event of your life and connections to last a lifetime!
PS YES, I was barefoot! Quite a story behind the outfit and the bare feet!
