Hey there, hero!
If you don’t know by now, one of my favorite hobbies is to brag on my VOHeroes Pro clients.
(Given how real the struggle is to be a professional performer, and how we constantly have to manage our mindset when we inevitably don’t get the gig, each win is a savory morsel of delight.)
Everytime that happens, I get a little giddy.
I can’t lose. I always win. It makes me happy inside.
And when the joy of success is layered twice over, it’s even better.
Karen Merritt is a Lifetime member of the VOHeroes Pro community. She’s been working on her craft for decades, in a town far outside the typical big production centers, and she’s very calm and cool about enjoying her journey over the long haul.
No short-term disappointment for her…part of her satisfaction comes from the journey itself.
And this past month, Ms. Merritt got not just one, but two validators that she’s the Real Deal.
One came from Toastmasters, and one came from the brand partnership between Bath & Body Works and the folks at Disney.
Have a look or listen to how things rolled out for Karen and how you might steal a page from her playbook.
