It is AUGUST!! Can you believe it? I'm just wondering where June and July went. I'm not readyyyyyy for it to almost be September.
I'm making more progress with the new techbizgurl.com and I'm hoping to have it ready to unveil to you next issue. 🤞🏽Eeek! So stay tuned...
In other news, I spoke at the Women in Tech breakfast last week and it was amazing. My talk focused on being visible and why that was so important to getting more women into technology. It's important for us to show up and share our stories and our titles because we don't know who may need that inspiration. And I already know that I inspired someone to start writing because of my talk. You never know who you could inspire by being visible.
I encourage you to think about ways YOU can share your story and experiences. Whether that's public speaking, writing or mentoring. Find something that works for you and your personality and get out there. The world is waiting to hear your story. ❤️
On to the picks for the week!
