Finally knocked out my head cold and summarized my last 2 conferences! I had a blast at the Inclusion Collaborative and we painted our own cookies! (I got my supplies from this company on The Cookie Countess) and I got a variety of palettes and brushes. So much great creative energy.

We talked about stress reduction, social connection, belonging and how the 3 intersect and contribute to overall wellness and self-care.

Day 2 at the Fall CUE conference was all about coding and I was in awe of the San Joaquin Office of Educatiob FabLab. I could've spent all day there and thankfully I found it on day 2, otherwise I wouldn't have gone anywhere else!

I'm heading down under to present at the Oceania Seating Symposium in Melbourne and the Makerspace Symposium at the University of Queensland in Brisbane. If you have any food or sightseeing recommendations, send them my way!

Check out my makerspace adventures on IG @atypicalpt or listen in on some highlights and practical habits to implement on IG @thenwhydontyou

As always, ask yourself "then, why don't you?"
