#InfluenceConf 2014 linkup

Last September, I remember how nervous, yet anxious I was about going to the Influence Conference. The fact that I was flying across the country and rooming with two women I'd never met was a pretty big deal, but all my worries vanished the minute I checked in to the conference. Even as a an introvert, I found myself meeting new faces & introducing myself to bloggers I had been following for years because we all had one thing in common - making our online (and offline) life mean something.

This year, my nerves have been replaced with excitement. I can't wait to reunite with women I have gotten to know virtually over the last year and learn more about using my influence right where I'm at.

I hope to meet many of you next week in Indianapolis and while I will probably have my hands full (I'm bringing my five month old), I will be sure to have my blog cards so we can connect after we return home!

  1. Cannot wait to meet you in person Meaghan!!! And I'm so comforted you felt at ease attending as an introvert...this is the first conference I've gone to not really knowing anyone in real life and it definitely gets me a little nervous;)!

  2. Meaghan, I'm excited to meet you. I'm attending for my 2nd time as well, and I'll have my 5-month-old too! :) Thrive Moms is hosting a "Mommy Suite" at the conference with comfy chairs and bottled water and blankets for the babies to snuggle on, so I bet I will see you there!

  5. Thanks so much for sharing! It's good to know that a fellow introvert ended up having a great time! This is my first time attending the conference, and I'm definitely having some of those anxious feelings, especially not knowing anyone going. But I'm looking forward to it!
