It's funny, when your list originally came out, I had only done a few speeches. Now, I have some major audiences learning about what was taken away from the Pursue the Passion project. Thanks again for your support! Hey Tiara,

Determined to increase the presence of young speakers at conferences, I created the world's first speakers bureau dedicated to representing speakers under the age of 30. Although adult speakers provide valuable experience, there are many young leaders qualified to be speakers. NotJustTheFuture Youth Speakers Bureau represents young people and connects them to conferences, schools, and other venues where they can share their ideas and knowledge on things they know most about. I invite you, and everyone here who wants to be a speaker, to visit our website at www.NotJustTheFuture.com. Please email me if you would like to further your efforts in giving people under 30 the opportunity to speak out!
