I know what you’re thinking, ‘not another Haven recap’
So I will make it short and sweet.
I had the honour to speak at Haven this year, and I’m not going to lie, I was scared.
Like, really, honest to goodness scared and hardly slept the night before.
But I soon realized that Haven is all about community and women building each other up.
It’s a group of people cheering for you and wanting you to succeed.
It’s a group of thinkers, doers and entrepreneurs.
A group that creates and inspires.
A group of ladies who have many things in common,
like little ones tugging at their heels while they try to work.
Dinners being cooked while pictures load.
Husbands waiting patiently while posts are being written.

Women who have built a community worth noticing.
A community who is sought by the big brands because they know our worth.
Women who are not scared to use power tools (no, they do not belong to men only)

Leaving you with something super fun by my friends at Haven.
Jaime and Maxwell just made my days. They were so adorable together!
And we should have gotten our own photo with that bartender LOL. It was so funny
I’m so sad I missed Haven this year, but have really enjoyed all the recaps! I’m sure your class was awesome – and those water color feathers are just incredible! What a labor of love from you! Looking forward to Haven 2015 and hope to see you there!!
What a fun update Lucy. I wasn’t able to make it to the conference but loved reading all of the recaps and everyone mentioning how much they enjoyed your session. It sounds like you hit it out of the park! 🙂
