Back Stage At The Dove Tales:
Linda here, I am telling you...
ad-libbing is not pretty for me!
As I have shared, I created 4 Steps to Rebuild Your Inner Life After Loss and these are included on my website. We also have a Community for likeminded folk – both those who are actively grieving and those who are interested in networking with new people.
There are a few things I would like you to know that are not included in the about page.
First, I am a bit on the shy side, and have been in isolation either in active grief or in creating the Steps and website. But I have never been great at public speaking, memorizing lines or acting of any kind. I have very intention to improve these skills, because I want to share with you what I have learned.
You may notice that in my videos, I am reading the words I want you to hear. I have tried ad-libbing and lets just say it ain’t pretty and wastes lots of my time in editing, or your time trying to tolerate it to get the message. Allow me to have "the space of grace" to become better at video creation, to include when they are converted to go on audio platforms. Remember, my goal is always to help you rebuild your inner life after loss, not to become an internet actress.
Although I am a competent writer, I think it is so important for me to share my message the way others want to receive it. So in addition to a written blog and youtube videos I will also be transcribing each video for Spotify micro-casts, so you can listen while you walk, run or are travelling.
Secondly, I want you to know that I live an RV lifestyle, so space, lighting and sound requirements are interesting on great days and challenging on those that are not so great. This too will improve as we go. Thanks for putting up with the weird backgrounds, wild lighting and odd noises occasionally.
Finally, I just want to share that I am so passionate about helping you. Bluntly, I want to be the person I needed for myself. I hope you will allow me to be the person that you need. Thank you.
