How to Build an Extraordinary Life: Farewell Address to the Grade 9s

Posted on August 21, 2013 by Sherry Langland

The podcast below is the speech I gave to the Grade 9 class at their graduation on Friday, June 7, 2013.  It’s about 10 minutes long. I’m not sure of my speech flows all that smoothly or if it seems to jump topics too abruptly.  Let me know what you think.
