[Adta] Amazing conference

[Christine Hopkins]

Hi eveyone--

The conference this year was amazing!  I feel completely re-fueled and nurtured and supported.   We have such an abundance of talent, community empowerment, determination, know-how and passion about our work.  It was extremely inspiring to be part of it.  I had some pivotal learning experiences in seminars, benefited from networking synergy and danced over the moon at the banquet.  Being at the conference was a catalyst for my career and my personal healing.  Wow!  

Plus serving on the board, which for me is a profound learning experience, builds significant new skills for my professional portfolio and is fulfilling teamwork, especially the rhythm & dance jam moments calling the end of breaks.  

I remember during my first ADTA conference many years ago I had the feeling that you all are my TRIBE!  Now the ADTA is my global village and it just keeps getting better, especially since I am more able to receive support and caring, due to my own personal recovery journey which is ongoing.  I love that my profession supports the development of my soul, the renovation of my heart and the healthy vitality of my body, as well as keeping my brain entranced with complexity, not to mention that all of it is a playground for my creativity.  

Bravo to everyone who worked so hard and had so much fun putting it all together.  I'm already looking forward to next year in New York City!

Kudos and many thank you's,
christine h.
