That novelty can mean that no matter what we've done before, we're still scared stupid! I love that "taking the choice out of it" bit - we often find resources we didn't realise we had when we're 'forced' into a situation AND of course the second time we'll do it differently but we have to do it a first time first! Wonderful that you all enjoyed it so much - knowing you as I do, I can imagine it was a beautiful experience. .-= Corrina´s last blog ..<a href="http://youinspireme.co.uk/2009/retire-not-in-this-lifetime/" rel="nofollow">Retire?

I ran my first 'group' Empowerment Tour here in Glastonbury last month. Although I'd done lots of one-on-ones, holding/guiding a group for the day was quite daunting, despite seeming like a natural progression. It wasn't until I actually set a date that it started to happen. I took the choice out of it and just had to rise to the challenge. And I loved it. (Fortunately so did they ;) I learnt heaps - and will do it differently next time - but was so glad I just went ahead and did it. So glad you're loving your Twitter teleclass! Look forward to joining them one day! :) N xx Love this post :) I particularly resonated with point 1: Create a deadline. I ran my first ‘group’ Empowerment Tour here in Glastonbury last month.

You'll no doubt find a whole host of inspirational women reading this post so be prepared to be inundated with offers :-) And ah yes, the terror that sets in once you've put it out there and now it's actually going to happen. Huge acknowledgements for you for that bravery and do pop back and leave another comment to let us know how it goes with your first one! .-= Corrina´s last blog ..<a href="http://youinspireme.co.uk/2009/first-time-for-everything/" rel="nofollow">First Time For Everything</a> =-. @Kerry – I love that the timing of the piece was useful for you.
