3 March, 2023.

This is such a remarkable day in my toastmasters journey as I got the privilege of hosting the toastmasters awareness session of Area 1, themed “Toastmasters as professionals”. It was my very 1 time hosting an event I haven’t played the role of a host before, even in the school days so it was obviously a challenge for me. Then again, the toastmasters spirit popped out of me. Almost all the members of our Kegalle toastmasters family propped me up at least with a cheering and supportive word.

With all that backing from my KTMC fam I got guts and yeah, I was able to successfully wrap that session up Honestly that was such a worthy experience even for my own self as an undergraduate. We had 5 professionals who belong to various different fields and are also toastmasters. They shared their experiences & thoughts on how being a toastmaster could advance each carrier.

So, I was lucky enough to get the hosting experience plus the knowledge on the linkage between each carrier & toastmasters through the same single session. I am more than grateful to our Area Director TM Dinesh Nadun along with the president of Kegalle toastmasters TM Chathura

Weerasinghe for providing me with this valuable opportunity.
