Time Away {Type A Philly}

Sometimes you just need to get away.

Last week that’s how I felt.  I just needed a vacation.

Of course, the day I left for Philly, my children were complete and utter angels.  My heart ached a bit as I said good-bye to them and watched them blow kisses to me out the car window.

I was hoping for at least a small tantrum so I could feel absolutely no guilt as I boarded my plane.

No dice.

But it didn’t matter.

By the time I arrived in Philly, excitement (and admittedly a teeny bit of anxiety) was coursing through my veins.  I was going to spend a little under two days with people I love, respect and admire.  There was going to be learning, laughter, sharing and more.

And there was.  I even got to dance a bit.

A huge congratulations to Kelby and Melanie for putting on a fabulous first Type A Advanced!

A few things I learned:

• It’s important to room with fabulous people.

• I don’t care for limoncello. (But a big thank you to Panorama for providing them to our table free of charge!)

• Taking a break in the middle of the day makes all the difference in the world. I went upstairs to lay down for a bit and that hour made the rest of my day AMAZING.

• Affiliate marketing does not have to be as hard as I make it. I’m going to give it one more go.
• Spending time with new and old friends is good for the soul.

• There is no Starbucks in the Philly airport. I might have teared up a bit.
• I need to get out of my own way. There are so many things that I could do or try, but I don’t.  Mainly because I’m afraid.

Must. Stop. Doing. That.

I’m flying home feeling renewed, invigorated and ready to work.

Bring it.
