June Awkward Networking is 48 Hours Away!


Hello Reader!

We'll be at Equal Minded Café at 4327 Troost Ave, KCMO from 5:30-7:30pm on Thursday, June 27.

There is no charge to attend the networking event, just like before, but please plan to purchase a beverage to support our host business. (Pro tip--they have an amazing chai at Equal Minded!)

A couple reminders:

  1. Our host doesn't offer food during the week, so we can bring dinner with us if needed.
  2. Free parking is available on both sides of the street in front of the business.

Please forward this email on, or send the Facebook event to anyone you want to invite! The more the merrier, & the better the speed networking goes.

Heads up for this event and going forward: Jennifer White is taking over as solo host for Awkward Networking! If you'd like to stay in contact with Jen Roberts, and join her weekly email list, click here. Otherwise, reminder emails will soon be coming from Jennifer White.

Happy Monday Reader! Last week's affirmation about rest ended up being more applicable than I expected when I developed a sinus infection! There's nothing like illness or an emergency to force us to slow down and prioritize rest. Have you ever noticed that being sick is a socially acceptable reason to cancel plans? That it's a "legitimate" reason? When I have to tell someone no or cancel a plan, I usually feel the need to give a reason. It's something I've been working on as a "recovering...

Happy Labor Day Reader! Last week we looked at the water we're swimming in here in the U.S.--the water that makes constant productivity feel normal or even virtuous. Although I've been aware of this cultural pressure for many years, I still succumb to it regularly! As a business owner it's easy to put pressure on myself to work more, work harder, work longer to get my business to succeed. It's hard for me to slow down and rest when there is still so much to do!
