Where has the time gone?
As a parent, I know I say this at least weekly about my daughter, but in the past few years I’ve been saying it more about career milestones. And even more so this particular year as I’ve realized that I’ve been a practicing dietitian for 20 years now. #HowIsThisPossible?
To this point, Blog Brûlée – the small but mighty weekend blogging conference for registered dietitian and healthy living bloggers that I co-founded with Regan (Healthy Aperture), Robin (Robinsbite) and Gretchen (kumquat) – is now in its 3rd year.
Looking back on last year’s post, Celebrating Year 2 of Blog Brûlée, – I echo similar thoughts for Year 3:
- The synergy formed with the inaugural 2014 group has only gotten stronger and more impressive with the addition of Year 2 alums
- We continue to feel like proud parents as we see these emerging dietitian and healthy living bloggers going to the next level with their online presence and professional aspirations
- We can’t wait to meet the “incoming class” of attendees in Vermont in September to keep the momentum going
And since Blog Brûlée has become about so much more than just what happens over the actual weekend workshop, I’m listing the reason for this – all the bloggers who’ve attended to date. Check out their blogs and follow them on social media to see all the cool things they’re up to:
