Mentoring at Haven Conference 2019

Hi friends! Next weekend Ben and I are flying out to Atlanta, Georgia to attend the Haven Conference!

Haven Conference 2018.

Haven Conference is a DIY/home decor conference for creators and influencers in the home niche. There are lots of blogging conferences out there, but this is the only one specifically for home decor.

As a blogger, attending conferences, especially in my niche, is very important to me. Conferences help keep me motivated and focused, allows me to meet with brands, learn more about blogging and social media, and of course gives me the opportunity to see all my other blog friends!

Haven is especially exciting for me this year as I’ll me a mentor at Haven Conference! I’ll have a small group of bloggers and influencers that I can help during the conference by offering blogging advice and tips, and sharing knowledge.

This past March I celebrated 9 years of blogging! I started the blog as a hobby and within two years it grew to be a legit career. Now I own my own business, help contribute financially to our family, and am a proud Entrepreneur! House of Hepworths has grown so much more than I ever dreamed possible. I’ve turned my passion for decorating, renovating, and living creatively into a full-fledged career.

Attending these conferences isn’t all business, we also have a lot of fun. Here’s Chelsea and I playing around in the Moen booth in 2013, and me creating a project in 2018:
