In this world, there are dreamers and doers. Dreamers think about what the future could hold, while doers use the present to make the future happen. The doers start off as dreamers, but they don’t let those dreams stay in their head; they take steps to bring them to life. Born from an idea in your head, the seed grows into a full plant that will eventually become a tree that keeps giving. If you’re an entrepreneur who wants to grow a great idea into a successful startup, consider these six key actions to get started.

I find in helping professions, half or more of the audience are pleasers. We love to support,help and be there when others need us. It makes us feel good. 

Trouble is you can’t please everyone all the time; you end up feeling pulled in every direction and exhausted.

I was recently a corporate motivational speaker for a software franchise event.

Tom Crowl hosts the Savvy Event Planner Podcast. I went through his archives and listened to a great episode on planning an event on a shoestring budget.

On August 29, 2018, I was a funny motivational speaker for the Siksika Nation School Board Back to School event. The event was held at the beautiful Siksika Nation High School.

On August 29, 2018, I am a motivational speaker for the Foothills School District back to school event. The event is at the Foothills Composite High School in Okotoks, Alberta.

Over 1,000 educators, school support staff will be attending. School support staff include school bus drivers, teaching assistants, school lunch staff, school counselors, administrators, janitors, facility managers and more. This is one of a very few events where the school district brings together all staff.

Audience engagement is harder than ever. Every audience is segmented and has different interests and ways of engaging. Because of the influence of technology, people are further distracted and segmented.

If you are interested in building your business with younger generations but are falling short in spite of your best efforts, you may want to consider this in your strategizing:  

Younger clients do not want to have a relationship with you or your organization.

Millenials look for immediate solutions to their problems, solutions that don't require a relationship to proceed. 

Life can be stressful for anyone, but women can be especially susceptible to daily stress from work, family life, and social pressures. Women are more empowered than ever, but also facing unique challenges every day.

I had the pleasure of watching Judy Croon speak at a Public Service Event. The female motivational speaker and stand- up comedian presented a hilarious speech, Relieving Work-Related Stress with Humor.
