I have a new Vlog for you all!
Over last weekend I went to my first ever blogging/creative conference! I was really excited to be there to learn and grow with other creative types like me. I had a great time and really loved the conference environment I am even looking at maybe attending another one this year.
Have you ever been to a creative conference? If so which one did you attend and was it worth while? Let me know down in the comments!
The Thrive Conference's Key Note speaker was Emma Chapman Co-Owner of the Lifestyle and DIY blog A Beautiful Mess. Her message was all about being a boss babe and called it 3 traits of being boss. Here is a high-level overview of these traits.
1. Set measureable goals OFTEN! Give yourself permission to dream and start now!
2. Embrace learning and failure. Real life has failures and is just a step on the path to success.
3. Power through negativity. Negativity can come from ourselves, close relationships, and the "peanut Gallery".
Other speakers included ho spoke all about the legal basics and the importance of protecting yourself and your business. The amazingly talented who was one of my favorite speakers who shared the financial side of things and how to make money work for us. There were also panels which were covered working with your spouse and . All the speakers were wonderful and I feverently took down notes to review later.
For day 2 of the Conference I signed up for the instagram workshop which was given by founder and director of b is for bonnie design. This was by far my favorite portion of the convention, getting to break out into smaller groups and get into the nitty gritty of the business. We talked about how to grow your followers and how to have an engaged community. I definitly wrote down pages of notes from this class.
I had a great time and was able to meet lots of fellow creative types! I am already looking for my next convention to attend!
