It’s not about who you know, it’s about who knows you. Invest in your network, it’s your net worth and everything ties backs to it. Go to events, connect with people, follow-up, send a note, connect on LinkedIn.

Provide value. My network did not happen overnight, this was over 20 years in the making. Put in the work nothing good in life is handed to you.

We were not prepared for perimenopause, much like our periods, sex, or anything else to do with our bodies. God forbid we talk about it openly.

We were taught to be ashamed, keep quiet, and to just accept it’s part of being a woman.

I reject that narrative. In fact, I like to bring it up in every conversation. Does that make you uncomfortable? Good.

When we normalize perimenopause and the conversation around it, we stop isolating, and we’re all more prepared for this sh*tshow.

Come to Uncomfortable Conversations: The Pause on September 24th. Go register; it’s gonna be a powerful convo, and @8thirtyfour is partnering with the @smallbusinessassocofmichigan Michigan Women’s Business Council. Link in bio.
