Last Thursday I was in Austin to conduct a full day workshop titled “The Art of Balancing Life” (Part 1) with EO Austin and EO San Antonio. It was a combined chapter event and we had a great turnout. 110 members and spouses attended this event. It was one of the most engaging crowds I have ever spoken to and I truly enjoyed the event.
It was my highest rated EO event thus far at 9.79 and humbled at being told I scored best speaker of the year.
Below are photos and comments from EO members and spouses.
Members and spouses arrive for the full day event.
The full day event was broken down into 4 segments with breaks and lunch, plus break out exercises.
Everyone that attended the event received a 46 page full color study guide with lessons and exercises to implement in their lives.
Part of the exercises for the day was for couples to take 10 minutes out and express appreciation, amongst other things, for one another.
Here are the ratings from attendees and comments.
