Riding The High After A Successful Gig
The best kind of gigs are the ones where I don’t feel like I am working at all. The ones where I feel like I am part of the client’s organization, committed to making the event a success.
I had such an experience this past Saturday, when I emcee’d an annual conference for a high-profile organization. When you connect with the audience, anticipate the speakers' needs, and keep the energy flowing, time seems to vanish. It isn't just about reading a script; it’s about holding the space, bridging the gaps between sessions, and ensuring every attendee feels the impact of the message being shared.
Riding this "post-gig high" is a reminder of why I do what I do. It is fuel for the next project, the next workshop, and the next stage. Thank you to everyone who made this event a resounding success.
