I heard about Pecha Kucha last spring when I attended The Enlightenment Expo. Kristi Borst shared her Pecha Kucha presentation that she created with her amazing art.
Next I saw a small ad for a Pecha Kucha show that was being held in Kennebunkport last May. Pecha Kucha? Japanese for ‘chit chat’. You present 20 sides in 20 seconds, for a total of 6 minutes and 40 seconds. My daughter and I went.
We loved it.
Next, I got an email from The Pecha Kucha Committee; they were looking for presenters for the August show. I had this crazy idea. What if I submitted a bid to be the show? A title even came to me: My Road to Reiki.
I sent the email. To my shock, I was chosen to be one of the 10 presenters!
So, eight months into 2015, I am continuing to be BRAVE (my one word for the year. “Fear does not start to fade until you take the step that you think you can’t,” from Secrets of a Charmed Life, by Susan Meissner).
Yes. That.
Be brave.
