You Can Inspire Others
What is your thing? As a speaker, what makes you special?
Over the last couple weeks, I’ve talked about different ways that you can stand out as a speaker. One other way that I haven’t talked about yet is something about you — physically, mentally, a part of who you are, or maybe how you’ve changed — that can help others learn from you.
In this tip video, I will share about two of my speakers who use their own challenges and struggles to motivate and inspire others:
