After 3 years I finally made my way back to Expo West 2023, and as an Influencer/Blogger once again. Grateful to be able to attend these types of events to bring you the 411 on whats about to hit the store shelfs. This year, like others before did not disappoint. I always try and attend Yoga in the mornings to prepare me for the long day ahead, to set my mind, body and soul to be the best that I can be. I was also able to attend Lairds breath work shop (something I had never tried) and I was very intrigued with it, so intrigued that I started incorporating it into my daily life.

I am so thankful to have been able to attend Expo West 2023. With the help of my husband for taking over the mom chores, from doing school drop off and pick up, taking girls to all their after school extra curricular activities, and cleaning, making lunch and dinner, I was able to accomplish this 4 day Expo. I met some amazing new companies that I hope thrive in the big world of sales. I met new friends, met up with old friends and had an amazing 4 days filled with information. Saying goodbye to Expo West 2023 and patiently waiting for Expo West 2024, hope you enjoyed this read.
