My IgniteOKC 3 Experience

Image
“I always knew I had my father’s love. What I really wanted though was his time” This was one of the more powerful comments I heard from an audience member after my Igniteokc 3 talk recently. Ignite is an amazing grass roots event where everyday folks are given the opportunity to speak on a topic with just 5 minutes and 20 slides that move automatically. Topics are as diverse as the speakers and range from how to’s to important social issues. All the speakers this year did a fantastic job and showed great courage to jump out and speak. Thankfully the crowd was friendly and the atmosphere electrifying. The talk I submitted was based on a recent blog post of mine that I felt a particular passion about and had received a tremendous amount of positive feedback. Clearly based on the reaction this topic struck a chord and I am so thankful to IgniteOKC and the those involved in the selection process for picking my topic. I hope you will watch and share the talk with a dad yo
