The Power of Bliss

It’s been 2 days since I’ve come back from Blissdom and I still can’t get my mind wrapped around everything that I got out of this conference. {The power vibe is strong with this young Padawan.}

But this is what I do know:

~These women are strong and bold. I’ve never seen so many cojones in a room full of women!

~These women are givers. They want to help others succeed. I’m sure there were a few that did not fit this description but as a whole? Amazing givers.

~They’re not strangers. I came to this conference not knowing a soul. I followed a lot of them on Twitter and read their blogs, but have never met them. Thirty minutes into it, I was family. Seriously. And by the end of the 1st day I couldn’t walk down a hallway without hearing someone sing, “867-5309″. I belonged. And there isn’t a feeling much stronger than that.

Blissdom did everything that it promised to do. They (with their sponsors) took care of my family so I didn’t have to worry about them while I was there. Then they pampered the hey-hoo out me while they were feeding me with so much information my head hurt. And the networking! Amazing.

Hi Jenny,

Wasn’t Blissdom the greatest?!!! It was so fun meeting you and getting to spend so much time with you. It was awesome to hear your stories and to see your big heart. Sorry we didn’t get a chance to say bye.
