Heritage Makers Reunion

I just got back extremely late Sunday night from the most amazing weekend I can remember that involved classes since Regionals. Our reunion down in Utah was three days of inspiration, motivation and team building. Team building is a term used a lot to describe learning to trust your co-workers and strengthening bonds between you to encourage the ability to work together; but never have I participated in team building that included girl talk until the wee hours of the night in bunk beds. I am getting ahead of myself though.



This is the site awarded to us after a two day drive from Calgary, Alberta to Midway, Utah.


 There is a specific reason why our team building included girl talk and that's because of the storytelling and the emotional connection we have with our own heritage. It gets us talking about what is truly important in life and that results in more meaningful conversations than just the average "What are you doing this weekend" watercooler talk.

Heritage Makers puts us deeper in touch with our desires for legacy and storytelling. It's a result of that and the people I went with that made it so amazing. Getting to know the consultants around me has been an enriching and rewarding experience. I love the friends I've made through Heritage Makers and I hope they love me :).

Getting on to reunion, I thoroughly enjoyed the road trip back and even though I was exhausted and ready to be home after the 12-13 hour road trip back on four hours of sleep, I loved the trip.








Our team wore fascinators to the opening session and they were really pretty!









Heading out for the next morning's session. This day we learned all about workshop tips and helping our club clients publish.



The townhouse all of us stayed in!

This is the awesome stuff we got there! We also got t-shirts! I love pretty swag!

It was so much fun to go, and I wish it could have lasted a little longer. It was great fun though! Next year's REUNION is in Arizona, who wants to go with me on my own team?
