Time. Do you have an abundance of it all of a sudden?  
Or - at least different kinds of time. TIME has freed up in the some incredible ways… and it opens up possibilities for us… 
 
I was on a Zoom call this morning (sound familiar?!), and this amazing entrepreneur I was talking to told me that speaking was "always on the list, but never at the top of it - Until now." 
Her business has slowed a bit, and now she has TIME - and she is taking that time to invest in her speaking skills, among other things. <3 
 
I am so delighted in all of the ways people are seeing this time as full of POSSIBILITIES… possibilities are my JAM. They drive me. 
 
Think of all of the things happening right now because of TIME we didn’t have before… 
  1. Time with my family. 
  2. Time to organize that over-stuffed closet. 
  3. Time to master a new skill. 
  4. Time to take more walks. 
  5. And - I believe - Time to dive into your talks, your video skills, and your speaking. 
 
We don’t know when exactly live events will be coming back online (no pun intended there) - but when they do, you want to be ready.

  2. 2) A fabulous pdf workbook with some simple prompts to help you pull out the essential stories, pillar ideas and themes that will point you towards your topic

Weekly Live Q&A’s with me, resources to help support you - and a Mastermind interview from a TED Talk guru with some awesome AHA’s that will be key in your process.

Friends - this is all free. In about a month, I’ll be launching my new Signature Talk course - and if creating that one talk that you can use in ANY context is where you’re at and what you need to help build your brand, your business and your movement - you are going to want to join us for that! More info about that coming soon.
