I just wanted to say thank you for challenging us to be a part of a professional speaking organization. It’s funny, I just looked at Toastmasters International website today. I felt the need to be around other speakers. Prior to my most recent book being released, I started feeling like I was on the edge of something great. Now that’s it’s published and released I sense a type of blockage. But daily, I feel dis-contented with my current employment. Grateful for the income, but I still feel a sense of “uneasiness”, so much so that it becomes somewhat stressful. I feel burnt out at times. Ever felt that way?

I know that my life calling is greater than myself. A friend of mine said that I’m in a cage and it’s getting too small. I’m ready to give birth to what God has impregnated me with. So, making the sacrifice to attend a National Speakers Association Conferenece would be very beneficial to me at this point in my life.

Peace and blessings,
Patrina Gardner, author, speaker, life coach
