I Hate Motivational Speakers.

I’m kidding.

As I’ve mentioned before in this space, I’ve recently returned from San Diego, California where I attended the National Speakers Association national convention.

Check out this cool photo of two of my friends (and fellow motivational speakers) and I in between break out sessions. It’s motivational speakers Steve Spangler (from Denver, Colorado) and Brad Barton (from Utah).

We have more in common than just the fact that we are motivational speakers. First of all, we all got our start as magicians. Steve has since moved onto other things, (amazing thing teaching teachers) but Brad and I are still magician speakers.

But the coolest shared experience we have is that we’re all co-authors in my book, Humor Us: America’s Funniest Humorists On the Power of Laughter. I’m proud of that book, and we’ve been floored by the sales. But what is one of the coolest parts for me is introducing members of the authorship team, like Brad and Steve, who know about each other, are familiar with each other’s work as speakers, but haven’t yet met in person.

It was a cool moment.

Cheers!
