Exposing my Mondo Beyondo Dreams in A Summer Camp for Grown-ups (aka My World Domination Summit Take-Aways)
I’ve been home for almost 48 hours, but it’s taken me that long to get my thoughts together on the World Domination Summit I attended this weekend. It took me about 2 hours to even tell my husband about it, because there was so much to share I didn’t know where – or how! – to start. So, I spared you that and waited until things settled. You’re welcome.
I mention a whole lotta people in this video, and I wanted to link to it all as well as the people who made the weekend so special for me (mucho apologies if I left anyone out!):
- my personal WDS pics are here, while the entire professional master set is here
- peeps who I’ve been crushin’ on who I (finally!) met…: Jonathan Fields, Brigette Lyons, Jen Lemen, Andrea Scher, Bridget Pilloud, Chris Guillebeau, Colleen Wainwright, Rachelle Mee-Chapman, Kate Swoboda, Melody Biringer, Jonathan Mead, Pam Slim, Jennifer Lee, Jamie Ridler, Nailah Blades, Rachel Cole, Emilie & Abe & Tanya Geisler
- …and the peeps I already know and love, but got to reconnect with…: Tiffany Moore, Bryce Longton, Molly Mahar, Monica McCarthy, Shenee Howard, Tara Gentile, Jen Louden, Kelly Rae Roberts, Pace & Kyeli
- …and those who I met for the first time who made an impression: Ev’Yan Nasman, Jolie Guillebrau, Julie Daly, Erin Mercer (who was a former Declaration Debutante!), Shannon Ridler, Dave Ursillo, Rachael Maddox & Allison Gresik (Whew! Apologies if I left anyone out!)
- you can learn more about Mondo Beyondo here, Danielle LaPorte here, Neil Pasricha here (and his TedX talk here) & Pam Slim’s WDS-related content here
- get info on the World Domination Summit 2012 here
Apologies for the au natural look here, too. It got up to 95 degrees today, and make-up didn’t wanna have anything to do with my face.

I am having a very similar experience now that I'm home, and I'm spending a lot of time thinking about how I can maintain the feelings I left WDS with for the coming year. Being with all those people (and finally getting to meet you!) felt like stepping into my life.
I'll see you there next year…and hopefully this summer in NYC!
Girrrlll I hear ya! I almost called you today to be like, hey, can we go get a drink, cuz I totally wanted to make sure last weekend actually happened! So glad we live in the same city!!
Totally get how you feel but it is even more of a testament to the experience. We are in it together!!!!
PS Never apologize for not wearing makeup. You is gorgeous!
I had such an amazing time & it was so great meeting you! And getting to talk for more than approximately 10 seconds
The atmosphere of the summit in general was amazing and meeting so many people, and ah, the hugs! All of the content and inspiration was great, but I definitely think my favorite thing was the connection with the speakers and with fellow summit-goers.
PS: Next year, we should totally get as many awesome ladybloggers in one room of the hostel as possible and have a WDS slumber party
Watching this video brought back all of the feelings from the past weekend. I'm *still* trying to process everything I've felt – I really feel like my world has completely changed.
Loved, loved, loved meeting you in person. And I love how you're exactly how I imagined you'd be!
Hey, beautiful. I just love that we shared this experience. I'll always treasure seeing your beaming face for the first time live and in person. Way to own those big Mondo Beyondo dreams. Great things are coming! I've always seen that in you
Michelle! This was fabulous!!
