"My goal is to speak like Lisa, learn the basics"
I often do my research and have a passion to tell my story, but always forget to breathe. Therefore, whenever I give a talk, I end up feeling exhausted afterward. When people say how I have inspired them, I always feel that I have let them down because I did not take the time. My goal is to speak like Lisa, learn the basics. Learning to understand that speaking to an audience is not a race against one's self.
