Amongst a busy few months of activities this year for the MultiPod crew, co-host Ted managed to get to a live event in June of 2023, the Camp Indie conference in Kent, Connecticut. Bringing location independent-minded folks together, there was a lot of crossover between the Location Indie and Puttyverse communities, with numerous folks there members of both.
One of whom was Colleen McGraw, part of the Puttyverse since early 2019, and someone we have long hoped to get on The MultiPod. As so often happens, things come together at the right time and, in particular, place, as Ted and Colleen were able to sit down for a live recording of today's episode.
We focused on the theme of attending live events, finding our place as multipotentialites, introducing the concept (as so often happens), and "finding your people." Colleen has been to quite a few of these in-person events, and talks about what it's like to meet people in person for the first time, and finding a path through an event as an introvert. You don't have to participate in everything, and you can certainly find the moments to recharge and take a break.
But it's wonderful to get to chat with people without any digital barriers (as much as those tools have brought us together in the first place). Live events have even made Colleen a hugger!
In the post-pandemic world, we appreciate the IRL meetups more than ever. Listen in for shout-outs to Ryan C and the Netherlands contingent of the Puttyverse! And if you're listening from the northern Virgina/DC/Maryland area, get in touch with Colleen, she'd love to go for a coffee ;)
To top it off, things are looking promising that The Puttyverse's own in-person event will take place again next year, this time in the Minneapolis, MN area, in either August or September. Visit https://everythingconference.com/ to get on the waitlist for more info!
And when the time comes, if you're on the fence: Just Buy the Ticket!
