I spent today at the USANA Cross Regional Conference in Vancouver. Lots of engaging, interesting speakers who spoke about the wellness industry and a changing economic landscape that makes individual entrepreneurship and business ownership increasingly important. The event continues tomorrow – more on that in a bit.<\/p>\n

First, though, I want to tell friends in Victoria BC about a USANA Lunch + Learn<\/strong> event that my team<\/a> is hosting this Monday (3\/28) from noon to 1pm at Chinatown’s Eco-Design Gallery (17 1\/2 Fan Tan Alley): Pet Nutrition with Guest Speaker Cari McCune<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This is bound to be a fun and informative event, presented by someone who’s passionate about animal health and welfare. As always, it will be followed by a delicious lunch catered by the Dan Hayes, aka the London Chef<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I’m sending this to my Victoria friends, but with the Vancouver conference happening right now, I got a bit behind in getting this information out. So here’s the thing: if you’re in Victoria and want to attend this Monday’s Lunch+Learn, you must RSVP to me by 5pm tomorrow (Saturday) afternoon. Click through on the invitation<\/a> for details. You’ll note there’s a cost involved, but I’m extending two invitations to attend as my guest – I’m looking for two people who are really keen on preserving (or restoring) their pets’ health. Leave a comment, send me an email, get in touch if this is you! Invites going out on a first-come basis! \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

Back to Vancouver and the USANA XRC (Cross Regional Conference)<\/a>: tomorrow morning’s session is open to the public. I’d love to see some of my Vancouver friends there.<\/p>\n

Details available on this PDF flyer<\/a>, but briefly, tomorrow’s open-to-the-public morning session, “A Commitment to Excellence,” starts at 10am and goes to 12:30pm. It’s happening at the Vancouver Convention Centre in the East Ballroom A-C. There are four speakers, including Mark Wilson (Executive VP of Sales) and Dr Tim Wood (Executive VP of R&D).<\/p>\n

You will be entertained and informed, believe me. So stop by tomorrow morning, text me on my mobile (we’re Facebook friends, right?, so you have my number), and say hi!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
