Wine Down Friday 13 - is it 2026 yet?

Happy Valentine's Day, a day for lovers, epileptics, and beekeepers (no, seriously, Saint Valentine was a real man of the people and saving the bees!)

What even is this year so far!?

Happy Valentine’s Day! A day for love, epileptics, and beekepers. No seriously, Saint Valentine’s Day is the patron saint for all three of these groups, talk about inclusivity! I can say that word by itself, right, not the other 2?

Yeah, we had a LOT of crazy things happen recently.

  • Federal funding coming to a grinding halt

  • Great Gov resignatioin

  • A plane crash

  • TikTok banned then getting unbanned

  • More RTO being pushed

  • More layoffs

  • California was burning then flooded

We’re off to a great start, aren’t we? 🙂 

In all seriousness, I hope that the gov employees who will lose their jobs bounce back quickly and that the people impacted by the extreme climate conditions get the help they need!

That aside, let me tell you all what I’ve been working on so far!

Introducing my new career coaching packages!

I’ve been hard at work putting together new frameworks around career coaching in terms of how I coach others and positioning my services so I can better serve people in these trying times of AI and layoffs!

So I’d like to reintroduce myself as a career coach and some info on my pricing moving forward 🙂 

If you want to work together, let’s set up some time to speak!

My biggest high point this month: first COOP webinar

COOP was an amazing partner to work with as I presented a webinar to over 100 young adults hungry to learn more about marketing!

I’ve never hosted a webinar with a ton of people having a great time conversing in the comments 🙂 

My next webinar with them will be in March.

2nd webinar with the PMI NYC Chapter!

I was sick as hell all last week, but I was still able to present a webinar about networking and LinkedIn for the NYC Chapter of the Project Management Institute! I’ve actually been speaking with them since May of last year about hosting a series of workshops for the thousands of PMs in their audience, so this is the start of a great partnership!

They even made a graphic for me lol.
