After 8 weeks of anticipation, Friday was the big day. We walked into Seth’s stunning office with huge smiles and slight intimidation, naturally. It is Seth Godin, after all.
The walls covered in beautiful art, Obama’s big sign of Hope, McLeod’s comics, Purple Cow parafanalia…oh what a site to see! It was in fact so perfectly Seth – the King of personal branding. We spent 3 hours chatting as a group – to each other – being pulled into a side room to chat with Seth 1:1…while sipping delicious tea and Seth-made gluten free banana bread among other jewish pastries. The conversations were inspiring, the people remarkable and the Seth-experience: mind blowing!
Sadly, only 9 of us were chosen. I felt like I was on a live screening of Survivor or perhaps The Apprentice. Folks had flown in from Europe and across the US for this experience. Proudly, I was the lone Canadian, eh. …and the rest of the week shall not be blogged nor tweeted about…
So for now, I will leave you the picture of the crew (in a not-so-flattering-Steph-look):
And send out huge gratitude to this lil guy for watching our lil’bear while we are way:
Adorable!
Signing off from NYC…where we run in Central Park, shop in SoHo and live in the Upper West Side….life is but a dream!
PS – Crossed #59 off the Bucket List! BAM!
So so exciting!! When do you find out if you were chosen?
I was chosen! Hence the week in NYC…
Day#1 was amazing..i think my brains will be blown by day #5!
Way to go girl! You so totally rock!
YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES
Sorry for the delay in my excitement. Met with NJ on Sunday morning and her, Adam and I gushed for a few minutes.
Love you!
And by a few minutes, I mean ten. Ugh, did NOT mean to sound dismissive. So excited.
Oh Chlo! You make my chubby lil heart smile – thanks for the comments. Please keep your blog updated on your travels for more heart smiles:)
I can’t even put into words how thrilled I am for you so instead I will just ask: pretty please can your next blog post be titled, “Seth in the City”??
MWAHHHH.
