On what she has learned from launching “The Happy Pop-Up”:
Two things: the first, you need a team of people around you that believe in your vision. And second, never be afraid to ask for what you want. I had my third event a few weeks ago, and landed a major print media event partner. I sent a cold email to the marketing team, and they responded immediately. After a phone conversation with her, she mentioned that her magazine loves creating new partnerships, but people never ask or they don’t follow-up. She then proceeded to say, “If you don’t ask the question. The answer will always be no.”
On ways we can best practice self-care:
Create a “Bounce Back to Happy” toolkit. The purpose of this toolkit is to provide you with a list of activities to help pull you out of a funk. Intention is everything. You have to equip yourself with joy enhancers at all times!
