225: Why Now Is the Time to Create Your Signature Talk

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. This is an amazing time to do the thing that is always on your list - but never at the top of it… NOW is the time to create your signature talk.
