In today’s episode, I’m telling you all about the importance of speaker conferences and why you should try to go to them. What I learned from the first time I attended She Speaks and what conferences can do for you. 

Be sure to tune in as I give you some conferences that I’ve attended, and ones that I’ve heard are excellent.
