Like all the badass women in the workforce, our Create & Cultivate team is always operating at 100 miles per hour with a to-do list that never seem to end—that’s how we like it. Beyond our conferences, we juggle account management, editorial, graphic design, and so much more on the daily. And when we’re on-site for our events, those tasks continue at maximum speed and our frequencies reach an all-time high.

Our team stays supercharged in every sense of the word. From physically to technologically, we make sure we are able to function all day long. That includes having our laptops, walkie-talkies, and cell phones fully charged so that we don’t miss a beat. At our most recent conference in New York, our friends at STAMBA made sure that attendees stayed supercharged, too—you can’t post a shoe-fie if your phone is dead!

So how do we manage all that and enjoy it at the same time? Well, we asked our team at C&C headquarters how they stay supercharged—specifically on days of events.
