My only goal walking into networking events is simple.

Human connection.

Not what can I sell you.
Not what can you sell me.

Just real conversation.

Because the moment every interaction becomes a pitch, the room changes.

And nobody wants to stay in that room.

What a powerful example of community in action. đź’ś

Today, I stopped by The Dre Project’s pop-up perishable food pantry at Stumblebum Beer in Troy, where volunteers came together to help provide free fresh and perishable food to families across Metro Detroit.

Throughout the summer, The Dre Project will be hosting pop-up food pantries every Sunday at locations throughout the region, distributing approximately 6,000 pounds of food at each event thanks to partnerships with and .detroit

A huge thank you to for hosting today’s event and helping make it possible.

If you or someone you know could benefit from free food assistance, or if you’d like to volunteer and give back, visit thedreproject.org and follow on Facebook for upcoming locations and information.

And thank you to with 1 Girl Revolution for continuing to shine a light on organizations and individuals making a difference in our communities which is how I found out about this event.

Getting comfortable on camera usually starts in a very unglamorous way. You ramble, you second guess yourself, you feel awkward, and half the time you are staring at your own face wondering why you are even doing it. That is normal. In the beginning, the work is not to be polished. It is to practice. Record it. Save it. Let it live in your camera roll. You do not have to post every version of yourself learning.

What matters is getting honest about what you are trying to say and paying attention to the story you keep repeating to yourself while you say it. If you are still telling yourself you have nothing to offer, the camera is going to pick that up before your audience ever does. The comfort comes later. First you need reps, and you need a clearer relationship with your own voice.

A lot of people are living like they were handed a sequence and their job is just to keep moving through it. You do this, then this, then this. After a while, it can start to feel less like a life and more like a system you are managing.

What gets interesting is when that sequence stops making sense and you have to ask yourself what you actually want without the usual markers telling you what comes next. That takes you back to a different part of yourself. Not the polished, responsible version. The part that could imagine something before it knew how to explain it.

That space can feel wide open in a way that is exciting and uncomfortable at the same time. There is no clean checklist. There is no guaranteed order. You are looking at your life without the usual instructions and realizing you have more say in it than you thought.

Even the way we fill our time starts to look different. A lot of what we call busy is not automatic. It is chosen. And that means it can be chosen differently.

It is still wild to me how many people say they support creators, brands, and small businesses, but will not take 30 seconds to like, comment, share, or follow their own friends who are creators or small business owners.

You do not always have to buy something to help. Sometimes support looks like engagement. Sometimes it looks like helping more people see the work.

Amplifying a message matters more than most people realize.

What is free for you can still be valuable for someone else.

And the people who understand how much visibility shapes momentum usually know that support is not a small thing. It is part of how good work keeps going.

Your FREE like, share, and thoughtful comment is often the difference between us being seen and being missed.

For a long time I stayed in my head.

Thinking about the risks.
Thinking about the reasons something might not work.

Then I started leaving the house.

Meeting people in real rooms changed everything.

Sometimes the best strategy is showing up.

There was something really powerful about the “You Are Not Crazy” mental health awareness event hosted by On The Wings of Angels at Chief Financial Credit Union.
The panelists were incredibly brave in sharing their stories and what stood out to me most was the reminder that abuse doesn’t always look the same. Mental. Physical. Verbal. Emotional. Financial. And the person causing the abuse isn’t always who people expect either. It can be a spouse, a family member, a partner, an employer, even a child. Abuse is abuse.
What keeps so many people trapped is the shame, the confusion, the excuses we make to survive it. And over time, if we don’t get help, it impacts our mental health in ways we may not even realize until we’re completely burned out.
One of the most beautiful parts of the event was watching people in the audience stand up and share their own stories while JoJo held space for them with so much compassion. When she puts her arm around you, you genuinely feel safe. Seen. Supported. That’s what she has created with On The Wings of Angels.
If you’re in a situation where you feel confused, ashamed, isolated, or you don’t know what to do next, please visit OnTheWingsOfAngels.org and fill out the survey. You are not crazy. And you do not have to go through it alone.

Watching Barbara Walters record voiceovers changed how I understood the process.

She would stop mid-sentence, adjust a word, and go again without hesitation. There was no expectation that it had to be right the first time.

That’s when I realized how much of the final product is actually shaped afterward. The magic is in the edit!

The same thing applies to interviews. A lot of people focus on writing the perfect questions, but that’s not what carries the conversation.

What matters more is being present enough to notice how someone is responding in the moment. If something shifts, if there’s hesitation, if there’s emotion, that’s where you go deeper instead of moving on to the next question.

Barbara was always paying attention to that. Not trying to force a reaction, not chasing a specific outcome, just following what was actually happening in front of her.

That’s what turns it into something worth watching.

If you want to create something, you have to stop consuming so much.

Creators always say the same thing:
“I don’t have time.”

But when you actually do a time audit, the truth shows up.

The time exists.

You’re just spending it consuming other people’s content instead of creating your own.

Funding doesn’t fix fundamentals.

Getting funding doesn’t mean your business works.

Grants.
Pitch contests.
Investments.

They can help.

But if the model wasn’t generating revenue before, more money won’t magically fix it.

Money amplifies what already works.
