BlogHer Advice Column

I cannot believe that summer is almost over. I always mourn the end of summer and when I have spent the past month and a half of summer sitting in a class room? I cannot even explain to you how I am feeling right now.

Luckily, I have some excitement coming up!

Raise your hand if you will be at BlogHer….

If you are going to be at BlogHer send me an email or leave me a comment. Because I would LOVE to meet you!

Everyone is always giving advice BlogHer posts. I feel like I should follow suit so here are five things you should do before BlogHer…

1. Create A Plan
There are more parties than I can even catch up with. Thinking that you are just going to show up and follow your way to the parties is a little crazy. Write down an evening schedule. What parties are you going to? What time are they? Where are they located at? Trust me…you will thank me later.

2. Schedule A Nap
I am a people person. I could stand in a room and talk for forty five minuets straight without a breath. I can hug people all day and then go off dancing all night. However, conferences overwhelm even ME! There are so many women and so many emotions flying through the weekend. It is amazing but emotionally tiring. Please take a nap at some point during the day just to refresh. It will make all the difference.

3. Go Shopping
Ok, maybe this has nothing to do with BlogHer but you are in New York for gawsh sakes.  You may very well find me frantically trying to pick up the latest styles and rushing like a mad-woman to the checkout. That is what happen when your nearest mall doesn’t carry much more than the Gap…

4. Go See Procter & Gamble
Yes, they are in fact a client. But word on the street is they are doing some pretty cool stuff this year. On top of the fact that they will have cool stuff happening all weekend you will probably find me over in that area. And if I am not enough of a lure in I bet you will be finding Stephanie as well. So come see us!!

5. But Some Really Cute Stilettos
….Just kidding! Seriously, I cannot stress the importance of comfortable shoes enough. There is a lot of walking at BlogHer. Maybe even some running…Find some really comfortable shoes. You can do it. I believe in you.
