in #steemcreators6 years ago (edited)


Hi Friends!

I am incredibly excited to announce that I will be a keynote speaker at the upcoming Steem Creators Conference and SMT Summit in Toronto this September.

I had such a fantastic time connecting with fellow steemians and speaking at the Steem Creators Conference in Las Vegas earlier this year. I can't wait to meetup with my friends again and get to connect with some new faces! I'm really hoping this conference attracts a lot of the east coast crowd because I would love to hang out with you guys in person!

I am so honored that @steemcafe not only asked me to come back as a speaker - but to fill a keynote role. It is a huge honor and I am thrilled to consider myself part of the Steem Creators family! <3

  1. I dig your napkin. 2. Thank you for a killer vid. @coruscate You are going to crush that stage. If anyone is on the fence about thinking about going to conference. Do it. It will be an incredibly rewarding experience. Lea we are so stoke to have you a part of the #steemcreators team. Key Note Speaker & Maid of Honor.....Whaaaaat!?! #nolimits #itsabouttogodown -rsteemed-

I just might go, that sounds amazing!

That's awesome to hear @jarotondi!

Aww you saw Mary’s video!! So exciting. ♥️

Seriously can’t wait to hang with you and the gang in Toronto! Thanks for taking Steemit by a storm and planning all these awesome events for us to attend! 😃

Can't wait to see you Lea, gonna be a blast!
Sooo, things I would personally love to hear you speak about is how to present yourself on Steem. You are amazingly authentic and I believe that is part of the root of your success and would love to see more of that on the platform so yeah, teach that lol
Much love, thanks for the shout out

ahhh I can't wait to see you too!!!

I have to say, your comment really has me thinking. My first impression is that you can't really teach people to be authentic on camera (to other people) if they aren't truly authentic with themselves. I'm not saying people are intentionally in-authentic, but you can often feel the difference of someone who has worked through some of that and is at more of a sense of ease with themselves. I could be wrong, but i'll have to think about that more.

Thanks for the thought provoking comment. You are good at those! :)

Maybe teach them that is okay to be authentic, or be aware of how they are are putting themselves out there. So many have their social masks on
I know what you mean though, is a loaded question with a rabbit hole attached to it bearing the question of "who am I really."
I'm sure whatever you talk about will be amazing, I got a lot out of your last speech

I have to say... you have successfully had my mind pre-occupied with this all day. hehe

I think the hard thing is that many people don't even know they are putting on social masks. The next question - is that are the reasons different for each person, or are there common threads that can be strung together to help most people see those masks?

Considering your experience with LoA and the fact that you are super grounded in who you are - I may pick your brain on this more sometime. ;)

Fair enough, wasn't my intention to pre-occupy your mind though it puts a huge smile on my face that you've been thinking about this all day.
Whatever you are inspired to create will be amazing, no doubt about it. I'll take on the authentic self in my talk 😋

I felt very honored that I got to design the @steemcreators logo, @steemcafe was kind enough to offer to give me a couple tickets for the event, I wish I was able to go, next year for sure! I agree, the connection I have made already in these 2 months is amazing, a real feeling of community and friendship. Talk about your work ethic and why you do this at the conference. I really need to utilize steepshot more. I'm excited for you.

I wish you could join too!! It's okay - there will be plenty more conferences in the future. Thanks for the feedback on topics for my talk. I think I have 45 mins to an hour...so I am definitely looking for inspiration as I start mapping that time out.

Awesome job on the logo by the way - I think it turned out really great!

Wow congrats!! 🎉

Congratulations! Can't wait to see the videos of it! I won't be making it unfortunately.

aww thanks my friend! Wish you could join! I know they are planning more conferences in different locations - so maybe one will hit a little closer to home for you sometime. :)

Congrats Lea!

aww thank you @jarotondi!

This is SO. COOL. Hope you have a great time! I know everyone there will be lucky to hang out with you! We'll have to meet up one of these days as well.

Oooh yes!! I don't usually find myself in SLC - but maybe we'll have a Steem Creators Conference there someday?? Who knows! It's a great city for that sort of thing. :)

I hope we get a chance to meet in person sometime soon! <3

Well deserved! Hope it will be awesome! Too bad I live on the other side of the planet. Won't attend I guess :(

aww thank you my friend! Wish you could come...but I guess you have a good excuse. ;)

You deserve it Lea. Way to go :) Looking forward to seeing you again.

aww thanks Ken! Congrats to you as well for being a speaker in Toronto! #steemcreatorsfamily
