Presenting to the Business Students’ Association of LeMoyne-Owen College about The Importance of Networking was personally and professionally gratifying. I reconnected with someone who remembered me, my why, and my start from nearly 10 years ago! It was such a joy me to share with her and the rest of the attendees some of the networking strategies that have worked best for me. I wouldn’t be able to do all that I do in business or advocacy if it were not for networking. And with National Small Business week and month fast approaching, networking and relationship building are musts. Many thanks to LeMoyne-Owen College for the opportunity to talk business with the students and faculty. Making new connections and reconnecting with someone from years ago was definitely the icing on the cake.
It was indeed my privilege to return to Houston High School. This time, it was all about the young ladies. They have started a Beautifully Unique Girls Club. It gives them the opportunity to talk about important issues in a safe space for full transparency and self expression. February is Teen Dating Violence Awareness month. I had the opportunity to share statistics, knowing the signs of abuses, self worth, and my lived and professional experiences in this space. I appreciated their openness and desire to ensure that this topic was included in their monthly meetings.
I’ll be one of the presenters for this outstanding symposium & look forward to connecting with as many of you as possible. I will also also be participating as a panelist. I do hope you’ll be able to join us. To see the full lineup of speakers and get registered, please use the following link: https://www.eventbrite.com/…/changing-the-mindset…
On October 4th, I will present to the members of the Junior League of Memphis. The topic is Behind Closed Doors, A Conversation About Domestic Violence. October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month. This will be an open and candid conversation about the invisible scars of domestic violence, recognizing the not so obvious signs, and providing some strategic and tangible ways to support and holistically restore yourself and/or others with healthy resources and solutions. As always, I am honored to have the opportunity to speak, share, and educate on various topics, and domestic violence is personally as well as professionally important to me.
