Join Brittany and Benn as we unpack a treasure trove of insights gleaned from our recent adventure at the BLD Southeast Conference in Raleigh, North Carolina. This was no mundane conference. It was a vibrant gathering of purpose-driven businesses, a celebration of unity, and a space for transformative conversations.
The panel on preventing burnout was a game-changer. It made us rethink our work-life balance and taught us the importance of finding joy beyond our professional lives. We delved into the concept of planning sprints and discussed the life-altering difference between soul singing and soul sighing. But the learning did not stop there. Our breakout sessions were enlightening, as we explored the intricacies of seeking investor funds without succumbing to perfectionism, the necessity of intentional community in the B Corp space, and the hard work that embracing diversity involves.
But the BLD Southeast was more than just panel discussions and breakout sessions. It was a journey of experiences that spanned a walking tour of Downtown Raleigh, an inclusive Networking session including the new Be Proud network, and the welcoming warmth of the B Corp community. So, let us take you on this journey. Listen as we share our stories, our insights, and the powerful lessons we learned about unity, diversity, self-care, and the strength of a well-knit community. Because at the end of the day, it's all about finding our shared purpose and celebrating it.
