Speak, Lead, Inspire! Its a Toastmaster's Open House

I wish I had discovered Toastmasters' when I was an active caregiver. I missed the professional work environment and the opportunity to continue to grow professionally. If you are a caregiver, joining a Toastmaster club is something to consider, whether it be in person or virtual. Membership offers a different kind of self-care:

- a break from caregiving for a few hours a month
- an opportunity to continue to develop professional skills from public speaking, to interviewing, mentoring, managing online meetings and more.
- an opportunity to function in a professional capacity
- opportunity to reflect on your caregiver experience and express how you feel to a supportive audience

I recently gave a talk on the hidden side of caregiving to a club in Dallas, Tx. I know I connected with the audience providing insight into what the caregivers in their lives are going through. I know I made an impact, now that I am a better speaker than when I joined. I look forward to giving this same talk at my own club, here in Brooklyn, NY.

If Wednesday evenings don't work, there are hundreds of clubs all over the US. Guests are always welcome.

Hope to see at a meeting soon.
