I'm in the middle...(once again Yes, I need a new camera)
Several weeks ago I was asked to be part of a panel for the Chamber of Commerce to speak about Staging. The Clarksburg Chamber of Commerce sponsored a homeowners forum to give some advice to people interested in buying or selling a home. I was part of a panel of three and I specifically talked about how to properly "Stage" your home.
Although I felt very comfortable on my knowledge on Staging, I didn't feel comfortable about speaking in front of a large audience.
Many, many years ago (ok I am giving away my age ;) public speaking was part of my job. I used to be an Account Executive for a large health insurance company and I managed corporate health care accounts. To say I was a little rusty would be an understatement. However, I was looking forward to the challenge to break out of my "stay at home Mommy" mode.
During my long walks in the morning I would leave my IPod at home (I was getting ready to type walkman, can you believe that? talking about old) and practice my presentation as I walked. I am sure people who noticed me thought I was one of those crazy people who talked to themselves. I would talk out loud and absolutely got into my zone with the hands flying back and forth as I went through my presentation aloud. I need to work on the hand thing, I picked that up from my husband who is a New Yorker and it is very evident in my pictures that I use my hands when I explain something :)
By the time Saturday came around, I was so ready and confident for my debut. Our Community State Sen. Robert J. Garagiola was going to be there and I imagined a ton of people were going to be there as well given our current housing issues, it was sure to big a big hit. NOT. The papers read "Few attend Clarksburg forum". Lets just say it was less than 10 shall we. Well folks, it was a mini debut I guess and honestly, I was thrilled to be a part of it. Now I am one step closer to the next big opportunity.
Until next time,
T
