You know, we should take vacations more often. They say coffee breaks and vacations are key to success; it’s true! So, I’ve been doing this thing where I attend one conference a year – at least – for my personal, professional development. Last year, it was The CurvyCon; this year, the #ASxTCFStyleExpo in ATL.
