Day 27 — 31 Days of Social Media {Vulnerability}

I’m at Bliss­dom and had a won­der­ful oppor­tu­nity to hear Brene Brown who was an incred­i­bly inspir­ing per­son as well as funny as all get out! With a room full of mom’s who do it all, she was not only able to relate, but did a fab­u­lous job of bring­ing us to our core. Bottom-line: you […]

The Velveteen Couch

[This is a writ­ing assign­ment that was first prompted in our Writ­ers Work­shop with some incred­i­ble Hall­mark writ­ers at Bliss­dom and Casey from Moosh In Indy and Stephanie from Adven­tures in Baby­wear­ing.

What is your Red Rubber Ball?

Image by rich­pix  via Flickr To those of us who attended Bliss­dom the words, ‘Red Rub­ber Ball’ has taken on a whole new mean­ing. Before the open­ing keynote speaker, Kevin Car­roll — Kat­a­lyst, spoke to us about his pas­sion, a red rub­ber ball reminded me of the many recesses spent destroy­ing oth­ers at 4-square. […]

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.

In the quiet of Bliss(dom)

Image by kajyu via Flickr Have you ever read a book and the author talks about the ‘buzz of the crowd’? I actu­ally expe­ri­enced that for the first time, I believe. Put 500 women in one room and you hear buzz. Not indi­vid­ual conversations…just a buzz. But that buzz cre­ates some­thing incred­i­bly pow­er­ful. The closest […]

Blissdom — first impressions
