While some may think that the little things in life can be annoyances, I personally think it is those small things we tend to over look are what we actually need to pay attention to. So, I find myself in the midst of a whirlwind of little things and need a few more days to get grounded cause I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed at the moment. I'm just going to post some light stuff the rest of the week so I can focus my attention on things that need tending to.
Sharing a secret
On another note, next week is the BlogHer08 conference, and just to share a secret with ya'll. This will be the first time I speak about my experience with bulimia in front of a live audience that is not any kind of anonymous healing program. Frankly, it's freaking me out a bit because yes sharing online is different than doing it in front of hundreds of eyeballs focused on you.
Logically, I know BlogHer08 will be very safe place, and there is nothing to worry about, but still, talking in public about very personal things like this is like that naked dream where you're buck nekkid in front of a crowd and feel really vulnerable. Do you stand tall or do you run off the stage? I'm going to stand tall and even though I have the jitters, I know doing this will help so many others and will definitely help me grow as a person. I consider doing this speaking gig "God's work through me." That belief is the source of my motivation and will keep me from wanting to run off the stage like a scaredy cat.
Come say hi at my BlogHero8 session
Yeah people, next week the comfort zone is going to get a major stretching and that's good. If any of you are going to be at BlogHer08, please come by my session "Coming Out Via Blog" on Day 2 at 1:45pm, the first sessions after lunch. If you get there early, please do say hello and let me know you're there because it will help me immensely knowing that my BISJ peeps are there. I so love you all!
I'm a bit bummed because at the same time as my session is the Blogging Birds of a Feather Meet-Up: Health/Fitness where I have no doubt that many of my fellow fitbloggers will be attending. Dang! They would have to schedule the two at the same time.
If you can't come to BlogHer08, come see a special preview of my session online
But no worries, if you can't make it to my session or aren't going to BlogHer8 at all, next week, a very popular health/fitness blogger whom I won't share yet because it's a fun surprise is going to host an interview with me where I will share some of what I'll be speaking about at BlogHer08. I'll let you all know on Monday where the interview will be.
I so love Angie and her big guns
Another source of kick ass inspiration for me is watching Angelina Jolie in her kick ass roles like in Lara Croft, Gone in 60 seconds, Mr & Mrs Smith, and Wanted. Here's "The Little Things" from the movie and great for cardio I might add. I've been running to it lately, and the beat makes me feel like I can battle anything.
