Sometimes the best talks happen when you weren’t supposed to be the one on stage.
That was me at Digital Summit Philadelphia 2017.
A last–minute fill–in slot.
Slides scrambled.
Adrenaline high.
It’s one of those reminders that preparation matters less than:
- Knowing your material.
- Caring about the audience.
- Being willing to show up when called.
You can’t plan every opportunity.
You can decide to be the kind of person who’s ready when they appear.
