Let everyone know what your message is! Some of us here could be good referral partners!!

I am awake, I am alive, and this morning, I AM PUMPED because soon I will be heading to yet another First Nation (Indigenous) community that needs my help. Like any other marginalized community, the three natural human reactions to oppression are obvious here - violence (in all its forms), acquiescence and non-violent resistance and non-violent resistance IS MYJAM! Together, we will REFUSE to be the stereotype. Together, we will HEAL. Together, we will LAUGH. Together, we wilL LEARN. And I cannot wait to assist yet another community be all it desires to be for its current members and for future generations. The journey begins in a few hours! YAY! Crush your week, everyone! Plant the seeds for YOUR amazing tomorrow! Love ya! Sandi

Sometimes the best time to sharpen your message is when no one’s expecting it; like on the way to the gym. I recorded this quick video while driving, because inspiration doesn’t wait for a spotlight. If you’re a speaker, thought leader, or storyteller, don’t overlook those in-between moments. They’re often the ones that carry your voice the farthest. Enjoy the video; and try it yourself sometime!

Aloha Everyone! I’ve been busy… I made it to the Top 100 in the Next Top Speaker Tournament out of Australia with Kaley Chu and Richmond Dihn. There was over a 1000 applicants, then it went to about 400 video interviews, then Top 100. From there it was an all day event; the first 100 went in groups of 10, then to 50, then to 10 then to the Top 3 and out of the 3 the Next Top Speaker was selected. I went as far as competing in the groups of 10 in the Top 100 but that was it. It’s ok though, I may not have won but I gained the experience that it will take to become the Next Top Speaker. I don’t get a lot of opportunities to speak so this was a great experience. I recognized that my speech didn’t stay on topic and I should’ve reiterated the topic point more times throughout my speech. It was a seven minute speech. I need to learn more and practice more so I can get clearer on the message (I think there’s parts I can omit) work on the flow and watch my timing.

How can I start speaking to corporate America about Mindfulness? I’ve written nine books on the subject.
