Influence Conference Meet and Greet
You all know I love community. We’ve worked hard to establish a sense of familiarity even here in the blogosphere. I love to know and to be known. I love to ask questions and I love to answer them. {Seriously, I don’t just ask a question at the end of every post because they told me at a blogging conference that I needed to. . .}
Speaking of blogging conferences {what a great segue}. . .
I am so excited to be attending the Influence Conference next month. It seems as though half of the attendees are pregnant {but I PROMISE I will not push this blog on them}. I’m more excited to get in a room with a bunch of beautiful {seriously, these girls are beautiful} women who want to deepen their understanding of how to use their influence for God. But I’m getting ahead of myself. . .that last sentence is a great answer to one of the questions.
I’m linking up today with many of these girls for a pre-conference meet and greet. Indulge me as I write a little more about myself than I am usually comfortable with for the sake of making friends before I make the trek to Indy in 6 weeks. Here it goes. . .
3 Get To Know Me Things. . .
1. One of my dearest friends is my OB/GYN. I know, weird. But having someone I see socially do my pap smear was the trade off for having a dear friend hold my hand through infertility, multiple miscarriages, several surgeries and two amazing births.
2. I would move to England in a heartbeat. Absolutely love it there.
3. I’m terribly shy at first but once I feel comfortable, I’m really fun {just like my 4 year old}.
2 Things I’m Looking Forward To About The Conference. . .
1. Meeting all of you {but please bear with me if I’m shy at first, refer to #3 above}.
2. Being inspired to better use my story for HIS glory.
1 Thing I Can’t Leave Home Without. . .
1. My flat iron. Seriously, my natural frizz would scare you. I’m sporting it now. It’s not pretty.
If you’re visiting from the link up, thanks for stopping by! Can’t wait to meet all of you soon!
P.S. I also blog here.

Yes Courtney. There will be so much to learn from each other. So exciting. Look forward to meeting you soon!
I can be really shy at first, too, so I understand how you feel with that.

So good to “meet” you! I think we are “neighbors.” I live in Brentwood
And watch out for my natural frizz. I gave up trying to tame the wild beast!

Hi! Can’t wait to meet you!I also love my flat iron. It can turn a bad hair day into a great one in no time.
Hey! So excited you will be at the conference and you stopped by my blog to say hello. I am learning there are so many of us attending not knowing many people or none at all! I look forward to making many new friendships:) Hope to meet up with you there!
Hi!! Just found you on another person’s blog in your comment where you mentioned living in Nashville. ME, TOO!!!!!! I’m dying to meet more bloggers and create a blogger friend circle here locally. I would love to meet you. I’m still looking for any roommates for the conference, so if you know any – please send them my way.
Thanks and will see you soon!
Hi Amanda! Would love to meet you. I’ll let you know of any roommate possibilities. So great to connect with you here!
My flat iron went out tonight- and my hair doesn’t look pretty without those heated plates either! Thanks for stopping by my blog and saying hello! Excited to meet you in October!

My biggest fear Nicole is having it go out on the day of an important event. I need to carry a spare just in case!
Your kids are darling! Excited to meet you in Indy!
