ALT Summit 2022 + DIY Business Cards

I know I don't normally write most the business concern of blogging, but I still wanted to share a little flake of the feel I had in Salt Lake City terminal calendar week. I just got dorsum on Saturday night from 4 days at Alt Summit, a business organisation conference for bloggers and creatives. It was pretty awesome to be surrounded by my people!! I mean, hither in CT I have not ane blogging friend. Sometimes I fifty-fifty have to explicate what a blog is. And so to be amidst 600 like-minded women was completely thrilling and energizing. I barely slept only didn't fifty-fifty experience that tired because I just wanted to run across more people and hear more stories.

I'll stop gushing now, but I wanted to share a few things: Commencement, my Instagram photos above. Second, a graphic that I created with some inspiring and smart quotes from speakers. Third, a photograph of the cards that I nerveless. 4th, a quirky little iPhone movie I made. And fifth, some photos of me making my business cards which I barely handed out considering I'yard terrible at self-promotion.

These quotes were shared past a few different women speakers. Lisa Congdon was the keynote speaker and she was completely enchanting. As an artist and simply general artistic dabbler, she had so many wise words to share and wisdom to impart. I likewise heard Rachel Faucett speak from Handmade Charlotte. She was beyond generous to give us all of her Pinterest secrets. Eden Hensley shared her knowledge nigh content marketing, and Sarah Downey Robinson blew me away with her talk on SEO and inbound marketing. I kind of feel smarter now.

Ok, then I was super lame at collecting business cards. Simply I got a few and I loved meeting every single one of the people that these cards belong to. In order from top left and across:
