I wonder if giving her the benefit of the doubt would be the right choice to make. 30 minutes ago, one lady made me lose face in front of many people. I was on stage talking to the audience about how everyone can be as fit as a fiddle. After I finished my speech and went backstage, one pissed off lady came to me. She shot down everything I said and she reamed me out in front of the whole backstage team. Maggie, a friend of mine, got behind me and she said that she either needed to get her act together or keep her mouth shut. She seemed to back down. I wasn’t sure what was going on. Now after the heated confrontation ended, she stood in front of me and apologized for what she did earlier. She said that she mixed up between another speaker and me. It felt like it was an elaborate put-on. I wasn't really persuaded. But since she was embarrassed about the whole situation, I think I can go the extra mile and forget about it as if nothing happened. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wafa-damlaj/support
