Challenge to Myself (Pursue Your Passion)

July 21, 2009 By Erin L. Leave a Comment

I fully intended to post about some of the bug’s latest developments until I came across this YouTube video.

At tradeshows, I am often interviewed about our products for Web sites, trade magazines and sometime even radio. But since our founder and CEO is our main spokesperson, I rarely see the footage…until today.

Wow. Could I say “actually” one more time? In my defense, the woman introduced herself and said “do you mind if we video you talking about your product offerings?” I barely had time to blink before the camera was rolling and I was blabbing away.

As much as I feel like I was rushing and I tilted my head to the side WAY TOO MUCH (I’m definitely out of practice), it reminded me that I LOVE doing things like this. I was addicted to performing in high school – loved doing things like theater and chorus. In college, I sang with the Furman Singers. And now….now I just sing and act for my son. (Lucky boy huh?)

I took acting lessons the year before I got pregnant, but I’ve never found the time to really put things into place and put myself out there. Now with the baby, there is absolutely NO time. But I want it. I love being interviewed. I like sharing my thoughts with the general public. I like taking on another character…even just a different voice persona. So this blog entry is a reminder and a challenge to myself. At SOME point….don’t know when….but some point, I want to start putting myself back out there. So if you know of anyone that needs cheap vocal talent, a cheap emcee for events/shows, interviewers for vlogs, etc. — give me a call!

How’s that for a shameless plug?

P.S. I really am better than this video portrays!

    All I can say is you were great, represented your product well and if I was in the market i would be looking at your products as soon as I saw that interview.
