SXSW has chosen two of my talks to be put up to a panel vote. They use the vote tallies to choose the final ones that get to take the stage. You have to create an account (takes a few seconds) then place a heart beside the talk title. That is it!! Your votes would really help me. Thank you!! The links for my sessions so you can vote are here: https://participate.sxsw.com/flow/sxsw/sxsw26/community-voting-edu-auth/page/community-voting/session/1753456154345001c4vk And https://participate.sxsw.com/flow/sxsw/sxsw26/community-voting-sxsw/page/community-voting/session/1753454780013001gwFC

Hi all - I'm really looking forward to this Summit and learning from everyone here. I will be at INFLUENCE next month so please connect if you will be there too! RE my books : I worked with the major hybrid, Greenleaf for my first book in 2020 and they did a great job. Although my book launched during the Covid shutdown and derailed much of the marketing plan, it received rave reviews and launched my TEDx talk and speaking career. My 2nd book is a workbook and I self-published it on Amazon. Now I'm writing my 3rd Non-Fiction business leadership book and am exploring all options!
