Why gratitude is important to me

Hello, my name is Carmen Sederino and I'm the founder and visionary behind Illuminated Story, a revolutionary approach to transforming high-stakes presentations into unforgettable performances. With a unique blend of theatrical artistry, business acumen, and communication expertise, I am the premier strategist for visionary founders and global leaders seeking to elevate their public speaking from mere words to lasting impact. Gratitude is important to me because I wouldn't be where I am in my business or life right now without practising gratitude. Aiming for the pinnacle and having the desire to cause enormous impact in the world doesn't come without challenges. There is something that is both grounding and energising about reflecting on magical every day moments. Moments that I am deeply grateful for.

The CAPS Convention

This week Halifax is hosting the annual convention for professional speakers in Canada. I'm really looking forward to it.

Today I’m grateful for:

  • the people at convention - it'll be great to reconnect with folks I haven't seen in a while and I look forward to meeting some new folks as well

  • learning - this event always gives me something that I can apply in my business and my life

  • the many volunteers who came together to make the event happen

What are you grateful for today ?
