I love learning new things and turning that information into something useful for other people! I love communities and all the great people in them. Say hi! 👋
It's pleasing to see that vendors are moving towards less swag that's just going to end up in landfill - either by having things that are really actually useful or just saying 'we're donating to a charity instead - come talk to us because you want to, not because you want free stuff'.
I think being intentional about everything - whether it's attending sessions, meeting/networking (I really enjoy that and sometimes regret not making enough time to meet people), or just calling it early and realising that I need a break... is the best way to really enjoy a conference! So great advice!
I also try to make notes the day of an event vs trying to remember what happened a week later.. hahahaha. All the sessions blur into one...
