Healthy Living Summit- an idea takes flight

phyllisAugust 25, 2012August 27, 2012

As a new adopter of a healthy fitness lifestyle, I have been such an avid reader of health blogs for advice. So many of you out there have helped me along the way to where I am now.

I wanted to attend to see if my story stacked up.  I know, it sounds kind of  silly, but I am not the typical age of all the health bloggers out there and I was not sure what reaction I would get.

I was well prepped by The Healthy Living Summit site -so I had my conference to do list.

Set up blog –done! On the Tuesday before the summit with the help of my very talented Technical genius husband, strongbystrand.com went live.

Business cards -done! Kinda cool. I went with a cheerleader theme inspired by my recent trip to Bring It On The Musical and my love of cheerleading. ( YES, IT IS A SPORT) I was a coach for my girls competition team in middle school.  Best time ever! I like to think of myself as a megaphone.  Getting the word out on healthly living and the joys of exercise.

Anxious -check! I made an anxious call to my very accomplished daughter who talked me off the ledge and told me to get over myself and have fun. Who raised her to be so self assured and cool?  Oh yeah. that was me.

I got my name tag and  swag bag and checked right into the greatist session with Derek. It was amazing to hear his story and his enthusiam  for his business.   His statement that for his generation there isn’t a Health and Wellness spokesperson really hit home for me.  He is right.  The young ones really don’t have anyone to look up to. I had Jane Fonda, Richard Simmons when I was in my 20’s and 30’s. Not that I listened back then.

After Derek answered questions, we had a chance to network and meet each other in small groups.  This was my chance, so as we all introduced ourselves, I told them my vision for galfriday4hire.

It was met with such enthusiasm that here I am blogging away.

THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH and that was just the beginning…

signed,

Your galfriday4hire

    Today, considering the fast way of living that everyone is having, credit cards get this amazing demand throughout the economy. Persons out of every field are using the credit card and people who not using the credit cards have made up their minds to apply for one. Thanks for expressing your ideas in credit cards.
