About Donna Drake's Presentation:
Learn to F.O.C.U.S from Podcasting Basement Blues to Broadcast Vodcasting Victories
There are a few simple "keys" to help us FOCUS: Figuring Out our Consistent Unique Strengths. Understanding who we are, and what is special about us, will fuel confidence, growth, and success in our lives. Donna uses her life story and how she overcame life's trials and tribulations by focusing on her consistent unique strengths to live a life of abundance and joy...all while helping others to do the same. In 2008, Donna launched her own uplifting and empowering talk show "Live It Up with Donna Drake" that airs regionally on the NY CBS affiliate. She self-funded her show by selling everything she owned and investing in literally, a dream and herself – and never looked back. Among the guests that have appeared on her show are Tony Bennett, Mel Brooks, Gloria Gaynor, Jay Leno, Howie Mandel and many more. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
