BlissDom Conference

unspeakable joy and hard work

by 3 Comments

Any of the handfuls of women that worked on Blissdom this year will tell you the same thing.  It was filled with unspeakable joy and lots and lots of hard work.

It was huge fun and BIG hug filled.

It was lots of hard work. Not just the physical hard work, but the heart and mind stretching kind of hard work.

It was supposed to be hard work wasn’t it?

If you came prepared, humbled, opened, surrendered it should have been hard work.

Learning, stretching, growing, dreaming, humbling, reinvigorating, exhausting, all those adjectives and much more packed into three short days.

I had the honor of working with some amazing minds and the kindest of souls.  I’ve been basking in the encouragement and straight up bliss, working on entering the new normal of life and praying for every single one of these sweet friends.

What is the one message you can’t forget from Blissdom this year?

my everyday blessings by Lisa Lehman @StudioJewel

When the new year turned the corner, I was well aware of what was ahead.

That’s just plain funny.   The line up there is what has been sitting in this draft post for about six weeks now.  It’s a lie.  I had no clue what was ahead of me other than what God told me.

Surrender every single breath to me this year.   – love you, God (dude…)

I have, have been trying and continue to surrender every single breath.  It’s not been easy by any means.  He’s called me to a season of pouring out that has been beyond comprehension.

I’ve had the privilege of working behind the scenes with some amazing women on the BlissDom Conference this year and I’m excited to be joining them and hundreds of other glittery gals at the Opryland Hotel this week.

I have learned so much and been a part of a huge community of women working their bottoms off to bring attendees an environment filled with Love, Business and Community.  HUGE blessing.

One of the most exciting turn of events is my role with Picha Global, LLC as their launch project manager /operations coordinator.  I know, right?  Who knew? Not me… but it’s exciting to watch four amazing and entrepreneurial women who have a passion for changing the world build something mind blowing.. 🙂

We launch in three days.  Yep… three.  I hope you will join me in loving on Picha Global and spreading the word.
