The fact that highly capable speakers (CSPs) offered many different approaches leads me to believe that it's not necessarily what you said that made the difference - rather, the audience picked up on and connected with something intrinsic in *you*. They could tell you cared, feel your sincerity - and that was what made the event a success. Cheers, Daniel Brad -

Dealing with an individual struggling with grief, uncertainty and hope is incredibly difficult – all the more so when it is an entire community facing this struggle.

The fact that highly capable speakers (CSPs) offered many different approaches leads me to believe that it’s not necessarily what you said that made the difference – rather, the audience picked up on and connected with something intrinsic in *you*. They could tell you cared, feel your sincerity – and that was what made the event a success.

Cheers,

Daniel
