Another great event in the books.
This was my second session, and it felt completely different from the first one. The first time, I was rushing from a shoot and walked in at the tail end. I didn’t get to really be in the space. I networked with who I could, and I didn’t create any content besides a random boomerang with the sign lol. I was just playing catch-up.
But this time? I was present. I got to actually be part of the discussion, and that made the networking feel natural. As someone more introverted than extroverted, this made a huge difference.
I met some dope creators, connected with people I’ve followed for a while and finally got to meet in real life, and got introduced to a few new brands I’m excited to see grow into their next level. It was one of those rooms that reminded me why spaces like this matter.
And shoutout to their discussion prompts because I landed on my word for 2026. I didn’t even pick one for this year because I forgot 🫠, but this gave me the clarity to start next year with something to hold onto. I’ll share it towards the end of the month.
Glad I got to show up differently this time and that I documented it. Look at me doing what I do for others, for myself lol.
Thank you for curating something real. Keep ‘em coming.
