Wristband Number: 782706

I was waiting for my flight home when I saw Dr. Geller across the gate and I walked over an began to thank him for his wonderful inspiring presentation at ASSP PDC 2019. We sat and had about a 10 minute incredible conversation. This renowned speaker walks his talk. He was incredibly personable and showed active listening as we spoke. I was inspired and we spoke of our mutual friend safety speaker John Drebinger. I had gotten a wristband at the presentation and was still wearing it.

He told me of his TED Talk and I shared my love of Dr. Amy Cudy’s TED talk about “Presence- Bringing your best self to your most challenging situations.” Scott was so gracious to hear me out with such enthusiasm and kindness. He took a blue wristband off of his arm and placed it on mine and challenged me to become a participant in the program for Police. I hated to part, but I realized he needed time to himself after a much delayed and crazy flight to NOLA that cost him a nights sleep. It was an AWESOME experience I will not soon forget.
