Last October I had a chance to take a quick trip to Arizona and spend a day at Becky Higgins office with her and her team.
If you’ve never heard of Becky, she’s the creator of Project Life. I didn’t know her when I first found out about the Project Life system. But it was just what I had been looking for to help me get my photos off my computer and phone and printed where my family could enjoy them.
Over time I connected with Becky via Instagram, was chosen to be on her 2015 Creative Team, worked at her booth for Pinners conference last November, and now manage her Pinterest account. This is one of my favorite things about social media–the ability to make life-long friends. We were complete strangers and now I consider her a dear friend. And with her, I’ve made several more friends with women on her team who I connect with in ways I never imagined I could having just met someone.
Becky’s solid gold as is every single member of her team. She’s incredibly creative, has a great sense of humor, and is a talented businesswoman who I have nothing but respect for.
I got the chance to see behind-the-scenes in the office, sit in on a team meeting, ask ANY questions I wanted to (invaluable to someone trying to run her own small business), and hang out with the BH team for a day. Truly a day I’ll never forget and I’m nothing but grateful for them accepting me with open arms and making me feel like I belonged.
While I was there Becky talked me into being on Periscope with her. I’m not sure there was an option to say No. As you can see in the video I was wildly uncomfortable not knowing exactly what to expect. But I managed to bumble my way through it. Another great experience watching how things like that work within her company. Becky’s great on video and completely comfortable doing it. I learn so much just by watching how she does things. She’s a great example of someone who gives, gives, gives and was more than willing to share her knowledge and great advice.
