And it’s terrifying because of, well, see above: standing shoulder to shoulder with the likes of Nicole, Dan, Aarron, and of course Jeffrey and Eric is, you know, slightly nerve-wracking.

Being part of this year’s road show has been one of the highlights of my career, traveling through five cities with my web heroes: the audience is fantastic, the speakers consistently wonderful, and I’ve learned something new at each show.
