What’s your passion? Let’s get you a megaphone so you can shout it out to the world.

In 2009, I attended a Minds of Mom (MOM) conference presented by Walmart and the entire day’s focus was all about bloggers. Mine was a last minute invite, one of those “hey, Lyndi, we’ve got an extra seat at this conference-thingy, you wanna’ come?” Always the one to jump on any conference-thingys, I jumped in my coworker’s car and arrived at a destination that would change my life.

I had entered the world of influencers.

“What is the magical world?” I remembered uttering those words out-loud to no one in particular. My head was spinning, twirling as blogger after blogger stood up and talked about their passions.

I wanted in.

Later that week I was having lunch with my friend Jason and he casually remarked, “hey, Lyndi, I’m following you on twitter. I had no idea you were such a foodie.”

I had never thought about it, honestly. Or, at least put it in those words. You see, my twitter handle those days was @lakebrittany, because, well I lived on Lake Brittany. Seemed logical at the time. And, like any proper and logically-minded gal I right then and there decided that my blog should have the word “foodie” in it. One of the speakers at the conference had a blog named nwadeals (now called Passion for Savings – Hi Heather!) and once again the logic kicked in. This blog was born. My passion had a voice.

So, I have to ask…

Where are you?

What is your story?

What is going to be your story?

What is your passion?

Let’s get you a megaphone so you can shout it out to the world!

You’re in luck.

But time is running out.
