I spent the last few days with 700 (or so) new and old friends in Orlando at the annual conference hosted by the National Association of Professional Organizers (NAPO). It was soooo much fun meeting organizers that I had only talked to on Twitter for the first time! I also soaked up some knowledge (but not enough sun) with the fantastic educational sessions that were offered.
One of those sessions, “Are You Media Ready?,” was presented by my organizing colleague in Portland, Ellen Damaschino (“Ms. Damn-Machine-Oh”), who offered tips and tricks on getting, well, media ready. Know what one of those tips and tricks was?
Wear makeup. Anyone who knows me knows that most times my makeup consists of moisturizer and chapstick (grape flavor, thank you very much). I mentioned this during the session, and received LOTS of encouragement to get over myself and slap some paint on my face, especially since I’ve got this media thing coming up (more on that later). I took that advice yesterday and paid a little visit to the MAC cosmetics counter at a local mall in Pembroke Pines, FL.
So, here’s my makeover…tell me what you think…am I media ready?
This is me before MAC
Half way there...
