DESCRIPTION

These are the slides I used to support my keynote presentation at the Professional Speaking Association MEGA Convention 2013 in Manchester. The talk was about the life of professional speakers, and some of the "behind the scenes" of what it takes to make a success of professional speaking as a life choice.
