And that person didn't exist.

Right.

So I knew in the back of my head that, you know, the way that everybody says they're going to start showing up when you really started making it.

But wouldn't you know what a surreal moment this week I received an email from Harry Walker Speaker Agency reaching out as if it was, you know, they had just signed me yesterday.

Hey, Heather.

We have a firm deal for you for two different speaking engagements.

Wanted to send you both of the offers.

Let us know if you have any feedback changes and then let's go ahead and get the contract set up.

And it was just this crazy moment.

Remember I told you I signed with them in 2018.

And here we are, it's 2022.

And I'm getting my first couple pieces of business from them, which I'm so proud of, so grateful for.

And I'm thinking about that conversation I had with that gentleman that when you really start making it, that's when you won't be so desperate for wanting the agent anymore.

And they're just going to start showing up.

And I'm starting, I'm not there yet, but I'm starting to see how that's playing out.

And as my business has picked up,

because of my LinkedIn, because of all the content I'm creating and putting myself out there and talking about my speaking business and getting recognized, obviously, by real leaders twice was a huge deal, right?

So that was in good company and headlining the event expo with Dame and John was huge.

I've had a couple of really surreal, big moments along the way that I understand how it's happening, but nonetheless-

It's surreal.
