I missed you but was definitely thinking of you when I used your “hot mess” analogy! 🤣
I am great and enjoying life living on the coast.

Such a great conference this year. The venue was fab and the organisation was spot on. I really enjoyed all the sessions I went to and the interesting discussions and insights shared. Looking forward to next year in Manchester.

It was a great presentation.
