An inspiring 4 days
I attended our national partners conference in QLD last week returning home yesterday.
I was a little nervous and slightly anxious before the conference but those feelings soon dissipated. I experienced great warmth and understanding from all as the news of my good outcome and proposed return to work spread.
I enjoyed catching up with and spending time with friends and colleagues. It was a little draining at times sharing my story but I understood that for many, especially those in other states and countries this was the first time we connected.
I am always inspired, energized and humbled by our annual conference. So much capability and intellect in the partnership. More than 500 partners attended and I always consider myself fortunate to be one of them.
Lots of laughs, good food, amazing wines and not enough sleep. My first small step back.
