LOL Well, aren't you with just a fun bunch of consultants in Italy! 
I was lucky that I had Directors still in Japan when I left to do meetings for my team. Now that they have all left, some of the Team Leaders have stepped up & volunteered to continue. I don't have a Dallas team yet, so I'm not yet doing meetings here.Hopefully you'll find someone who can help you out. But please know that you don't have to attend meetings to succeed. I didn't have anyone local doing meetings when I decided to step up my business and promote. I just did it! Where there's a will, there's a way.
