Are you a Los Angeles-area content pro? Would you like to get off the internet (just for a few hours!) and meet some people IRL? ?? I'm planning a meet-up in LA for the beginning of 2025, probably mid-January. Anyone who works in content or journalism or PR or marketing is welcome. There's no big agenda, just a desire to meet some of the wonderful people I've connected to here on LinkedIn, and hopefully some new people as well. If you're in the area and might want to join, I've put together a short survey that will help me plan an event everyone will love: https://lnkd.in/gc2s_crr Someone here posted about "networking across" the other day (truly cannot find the post now, if this was you, please lmk so I can tag you!), inspired by a quote from Issa Rae, and it really rang true to me. It's important to consider your ICP in your audience, but it's just as important to consider your peers. We're all moving around this crazy media/content job market, helping each other out when we can. Someone who pitches you a story today could be in a position to hire you tomorrow. But most importantly? I think it will be really fun to grab a coffee/cocktail/mocktail together. That's all that's required. ??

?? NOW ACCEPTING INTERESTED APPLICANTS! Last week, WNDB announced our latest initiative to send specially curated mental health care packages to queer teens all across the nation. Originally, we shared that The Trevor Project reported a 200% spike in crisis calls from LGBTIQIA+ teens preceding the presidential election.

Queer and trans youth need our support, comfort, care, and resources now more than ever, and WNDB is preparing to send out curated care packages for queer teens that will contain: ?? queer & trans books exploring mental health or sharing queer & trans joy ?? WNDB bookmarks ??
