are you coming to influence?

Can you believe it’s next month?! If you’re still on the fence, hop on over and buy a ticket! There are still a few left, and this event is shaping up to be a fantastic one. Some of us hosts & community leaders  decided to lighten the awkward and start getting to know each other more before the conference. Please oh please join in!

3 THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT ME:

1. I tend to dread “meet & greets.” I’m the one who wrote this post.

2. Early to bed, early to rise! My idea day begins at 7:30am and ends before 11pm.

3. I haven’t blown my hair dry in almost two years. I keep things long and lazy.


2 THINGS I’M LOOKING FORWARD TO:

1. Turning words like leverage and influence into words like applicable and practical.

2. Stripes party! Stripes party! Stripes party!


1 THING I CANNOT LEAVE HOME WITHOUT:

1. Burt’s Bees lip balm. Absolutely.




Your turn…

    Love Burt’s Bees! And a fellow early-to-bed, early-to-riser. Although that’s changed a little now that I try to get “me time” after the kids are in bed :) Looking forward to meet you!

    I love me some Burt’s Bees too! :) I’m a night owl though, so hopefully we can still be friends. *wink* Looking forward to meeting you at Influence!

    I’m not much for meet & greet stuff, either–too much awkwardness. Hopefully we’ll make a lot of fun amidst all that awkwardness, though!

    See you in October!

    LOVE the post you linked to. Haha I’ve been known to step out during that time in the church service when everyone shakes hands and says hello- it’s just so awkward. I think this is going to be good though :)

      My husband is the one ushering us into worship and encouraging us to mingle, and I’ve got my nose buried in my bag on the last row ;)

    I love the post you linked! And I so agree with you. I think Influence is going to be made up of a different sort of women than most blogging conferences are usually geared for. And I’m so excited for that. I feel like Influence is the conference with a heart, if that makes any sense?

    I’m looking forward to learning how to practically use my influence, too. I want to make much of Him and less of me, but sometimes it’s so hard to know where to start!

      I do! Sort of. Looking forward to it!

    I wish I was early to bed early to rise! It’s the opposite for me, that is if my son sleeps in! So I have to say I could already tell I’m gonna get along great with you- just from your sidebar. Eurgo baby, Flip, C/D (in general), bf- um yes yes & yes says this momma! Excited to meet you next month!

    Me too on the Burt’s Bees. I forgot it the other day and went and bought some because I was going to be gone for two hours. TWO HOURS. It ended up being 4, so I am glad I did it. Has anyone else noticed that NOBODY is selling the tins anymore or else they’re selling out in a day? I REALLY HATE the stick and NEED the tin. Can you get it where you are?!
