Cultivating your Tribe thru Live Events

Being part of a tribe - people you relate to, and who get you -
can be good for your health.  Festivals strive to cultivate
a cool vibe that brings together like-minded people for a good
time, and there's an art to that.


FestForums, a conference that brings together
people who create festivals- and those who provide services that
support festivals and live events - is coming to Santa Barbara
November 21-23.  It's a very cool hang!


In this episode I speak with Laurie Kirby, co-founder of
FestForums, about trends in conferences, what it takes to put on
a successful live event - and what will be happening at
FestForums this year. Special guests at FestForums this year
include Penelope Spheeris, Jon Anderson (YES), Skip Parker, 
Ray Parker, Jr. and many more. And, this is an event where
everyone feels like a VIP, being treated to a variety of events
and activities from wine tastings - and live performances, to
panels, awards and presentations.


I will be there to offer Aroma Experiences, so I hope to see you
there.  For more information and to register (use the promo
