GEW - Free classes to learn & grow your business skills


Hi Reader,

Have you heard of Global Entrepreneurship Week (or GEW)? It's a free educational conference that happens every November on all things business ownership and being your own boss.

So of course my business owner friends should make plans to attend! But even if you don't have a business or side hustle, there are networking events & skills classes that could help anyone.

And I'm teaching two such classes at GEWKC!


It's Smart, Not Selfish! (How to establish boundaries to get your own work done)
Tuesday, Nov. 14
3-4p
Bank Midwest
, 1100 Northwest South Outer Road, Blue Springs

Find yourself too busy helping your employees or coworkers or putting out fires to get your own work done? In this class, we’ll discuss a step by step process for carving out time for your work priorities. You’ll have time in class to make your own personalized plan, and we’ll do a bit of role playing to practice holding our boundaries around that plan.

Attendees must confirm attendance via Eventbrite for free tickets due to limited seating (max. 12).


60 Second Self Care at Work
Wednesday, Nov. 15
11:15a-12:15p
PlexPod Westport

Self care has become a buzz word that’s often used to sell us expensive or time-consuming products. The truth is, self care IS important, but it doesn’t have to be pricey or take a huge chunk of your day to be effective. Before you give up on self care because you can’t afford a fancy spa day or find the time for a luxury vacation, come to this session to learn and practice multiple ways to make time for self care during your busy work day. You’ll also leave with a list of over 60 free or low-cost ideas for self care.


Again, all the classes and events are free to attend so I hope to see you at GEWKC in a couple weeks! It's a great resource in our community, so take advantage of it if you can.

Check out gewkc.com for the full schedule of events & to register for classes you want to attend!

Breathe deep. Drink plenty of water. You got this!

Hey Reader, It's summer break! My husband is done teaching for the summer--he never teaches summer school because we need the break wayyyyyy more than we need that wee bit of extra money.

Hello Reader, Our affirmation stays the same this week: I have all the time I need. Remember: If you don't have all the time you need, there are only 2 ways to create it: Delete items from your to-do list or Delegate items from your to-do list I've been thinking a lot over the past week about having all the time I need for my hobbies. As a working adult, I don't always have time for my hobbies! And my hobbies are seasonal to an extent too. I don't need nearly as much time for gardening in the...
