A short YouTube testimonial by TEDx speaker Damilare Adeyeri thanking Stacey Lauren for hosting a TEDx watch party (on Zoom) that increased views and engagement for his TEDx talk. Adeyeri describes the event as a chance for viewers to watch his talk together, ask questions in a live Q&A-like interaction, provide feedback, and deepen the talk's transformational impact—likening the experience to an author book-signing and calling it a "My People party" format. The testimonial expresses gratitude and highlights ripple effects from increased visibility and meaningful audience engagement.

Hi, everyone, my name is Damila Adieri, TEDx Keynote Speaker, Peak performance coach and movement professional. And I'm here to give a shout out to the most wonderful Stacey Loring for hosting a TEDx watch party. For me, what I really loved about it is first off, as a speaker, you want people to hear your message. And that was exactly what Stacy's TEDx watch party did for me. We brought people together on Zoom. We did a watch party and did not only watch my message, but which gave more views on my TEDx talk on YouTube. I love the engagement. So people were there, they asked questions about my talk, really enjoyed the topic, wanted to know. And guess what? When you have a message as a speaker, it's not just about stepping on stage to give the message. It's about knowing that the message is transforming lives and having an opportunity to talk with the people, to get the feedback, give them more information by turn, give them more transformation and really just created that ripple effect of their message. And that's exactly what Stacy Lawrence, TEDx watch party, did for me by hosting that and bringing people together in our My People party format to watch my TEDx talk. I really love that it got more views, of course, spread the message much more, and people just really got an opportunity to engage with the message in a much more conscious, meaningful way. And in a way, it felt like an author book signing event because people could actually ask me questions about my speech. And I really love that. So absolutely, absolutely. Call this a testimonial, call this a gratitude, call this whatever it is. But Stacy, you're awesome. Thank you so much and I really appreciate it. All right, bye. Bye.
