Video and what (or rather who) prompts me to show up
My mother died from Alzheimer’s about a year ago.
I only mention that ‘cause ... it just rolled through my head. She’s been creeping in there more and more lately. 💕
Plus honestly, I can’t remember whether I shared what I’m about to in here or not.
😐🤷🏻♀️
About three years ago (was Fall 2017 I believe), I was at a Legendary event and the gal who’s now the COO I believe, came up behind me and whispered -
“We have you on the speaker list for Sunday”
What? 👀
Apparently they’d sent an email lol - oops 🙊
Anyway, that was Friday, Sunday morning I still hadn’t prepared anything, not officially, but I woke up with the idea I ended up rolling with.
10 or so placeholder slides and a general idea of the story I wanted to tell, plus a couple of videos that had been made while we were there at the conference (omg how different it might have been without those)...
Et voila -
Here’s what happened next... or rather, here’s a post about what happened next 🙃😅
The recording of the talk is on the top:

Enjoy 😊 (or not 😄),
Andrea 😘
PS. recently someone told me she had a hard time figuring out where the door was to step into Planet Andrea.
I don’t doubt it.
Sometimes I have trouble too 🙃
Only the most interested find their way. Or their way back.
Had an unexpected sale just yesterday that reminded me how just plain awesome it can be to wait ... not even patiently-
A week or more ago, in response to yet another post about “I’m confused” in one of the HD groups on FB, I told this gal to “go buy this and I can tack on a free 30min call to clear up your confusion” ... and she didn’t respond.
So I deleted her from my radar.
Almost blocked her if I’m honest - I was that tired of seeing her flopping around.
Then yesterday, she buys and sends a note of apology “sorry I’ve been so slow”
Yeah waiting is kinda the bomb.
No denying I could use organizing
But clearly, that’s someone else’s work who hasn’t yet found me or decided to raise their hand to do it 🤷🏻♀️
‘Cause I’m not doing it. Or it would be done. :)
Scaling ... now that’s a different story, there might be some energy for that brewing (been in my conversation “air” for several years though 🙃)
Which WILL take some sprinting style laying of breadcrumbs in a way so the snackers can snack .... AND wander on through the transactions- effortless and joyful- without my direct attention.
In some ways, I think it’s part #beingaprojector that kinda gets bumped into here.
One-on-one is so dang easy.
