E106: What Suze Orman, Ta-Nehisi Coates, Oprah taught me about saying YES to events

YOU WANNA DO WHAT?!: Personal Brand, Public Speaking, Thought Leadership for Career Professionals and Founders

Are you saying YES to invitations, announcements and event emails?

In today’s world, we are often so busy (or convince ourselves we’re so busy), that we tend to ignore any event promotions that pop up in our inbox or on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram. But are you making a mistake?

Events offer so many benefits that you really should be making time for them.

In this episode, we discuss:

• My top 5 reasons why you must start saying YES to the events, parties and networking opportunities that are available to you
• What Suze Orman, Oprah Winfrey, and Ta-Nehisi Coates taught me by attending events
• List of resources to help you started if you are starved for events but don’t know of any happening near you. Location doesn’t have to prohibit you from getting out there.
• How to work with me and launch your podcast (https://calendly.com/youwannadowhat/20min)
