Yeah, I don't need that.

No, you can tell I have enough energy just coming out of my body.

That's why I didn't have it this morning.

I'm good.

I'm excited to be on the podcast.

That's all I need.

Yeah, I just had my own event, and it was my very first event.

It was also my very first time ever on stage, so I'd never even given a speech before.

And I can't even believe I'm saying this, but it went off perfectly.

There was literally no hiccups.

We hosted over 300 people.

They all had such nice things to say about it.

I got to meet a lot of people whose lives I've touched in person.

It was amazing.

It was really addictive.

And then Ryan, last minute, had a cancellation.

for one of his speakers and so he invited me to fill that in and i was like i'll be there so yeah i'm pounding the pavement a little bit with my speaking and appearances and stuff now i'm a fan of the irl events because we all have like audiences online but to do it in person it hits different right

I think it does.

I think it's also a lot like throwing the event was such a learning curve for me.

I didn't know how hard it is.
