I just got back from San Francisco where I was speaking to lawyers attending the American Bar Association Annual meeting.
I was honored to give two presentations while I was there.
The first, an ignite-style presentation in which I had 6 minutes with 20 slides advancing 18s at a time.
I spoke about Love, Sweet Love for lawyers.
Here’s a bootleg copy of that presentation.
What you can’t see is that my knees were literally knocking beneath my skirt.
I’m not sure if I’ve ever been that nervous doing a presentation before.

So here I am.
Exactly where I was just a couple of years ago in so many respects.
And yet so far away.
