Today on the show I’m so excited to be introducing you to Lauren Ready - an Emmy Award-Winning producer, videographer and documentarian… and one of my speakers! Lauren started her career as a TV reporter, in front of the camera - and felt a pull to tell the stories that often didn’t get told…So she stepped behind the camera and started producing stories, events and virtual experiences from that angle. I'm so excited for Lauren to share her unique vantage point, focusing on how the speakers she’s produced have been able to overcome the obstacle of disconnection - and bust through that wall - aka the camera! - that too often exists in this virtual world…
