I love this show! I watch it to reinforce my positive habits, and remind me where I could go if I don't continue with my healthy post-surgical regimen. It keeps my head in the game

So True! I wish there was a way we could more easily change and upload pictures. Like facebook. Mine is YEARS old and it just took so much effort, that I dont bother.

I wish an OH conference would come to the DC area. I would certainly go. Some day, I hope to have enough $$$ and vacation time to attend a conference and meet some of you guys in person.

October 2nd and 3rd, 2020 at Omni Houston Hotel Westside.

EB tickets will launch in January, which will be the best time to purchase your tickets. Room blocks will open up sometime directly after Early Bird, around February or so. We make announcements via our site and social media platforms.
