Brit+Co Re:Make Summit 2016
I spent this past weekend in San Francisco at Brit+Co's Re:Make Summit. I found out about it only a week or so before and made the insane decision to splurge and attend. SO WORTH IT.
Friday was spent listening to the likes of Sophia Amoruso, Melanie Whelan, and two of my FAVES Grace Helbig and Mamrie Hart. I've been following these two YouTubers for years now, and it was so amazing to see them live. They're both comedians, but I love listening to them speak in interviews and panels like this because they are real and honest and so relatable.
Then there was Brene Brown. WHAT. I KNOW. She spoke for only about 30-40 minutes, but I could have listened to her for the whole 8 hour day. One of my teachers introduced me to her Ted Talk on The Power Of Vulnerability years ago. I've been meaning to read her books, but have not gotten around to it with all of my school work. After this weekend though, I know I need more Brene in my life. So amazon, here I come!
Saturday was a day free to the public with vendors of all difference creative mediums. There were DIY projects, food trucks, live music. I stayed with a girlfriend in lower pac heights, and on Saturday I decided to walk back to her apartment from the Fort Mason Center. I figured the two mile walk with much uphill climbing was my exercise for the day (especially since my morning was spent at Tartine). I loved all of the old homes and apartments, especially with the vines and flowers and greenery all around.
