Let's talk
Life is full of randomness, even though Einstein said that:
"Everything is determined: the beginning and the end, as well."
I don't know if it's true, and I won't definitely argue with Albert, but everything I talked about this week happened without me knowing it would happen!
However, I bet it wouldn't happen, if I were not doing a ton of things prior ??
I call it curated serendipity! (thank you Carolyn Zick for this term!)
So, in case you missed it, here is what I've talked about this week! ??
In Today's Issue
Let's Dive In ??
Community ROI
Your community isn’t just about connection—it’s a powerful tool for saving costs and boosting customer retention!
Discover how a community can directly impact your Support Team’s budget!
Community ROI podcast
Community isn’t just a standalone effort—it thrives on cross-team collaboration, and aligning with HR, ERGs, and even legal teams transforms a community into a trusted and indispensable business partner ??
In the latest episode of the Community ROI podcast, I spoke with Stephanie Nakano , a seasoned community leader with over 12 years of experience, about how internal partnerships can elevate your community strategy and ROI.
Mastering Freelancing
Freelancing is full of ups and downs, especially when it comes to handling rejection and feedback, but recently, Ted Lasso was a great example for me of how to deal with hard things in life!
For example, I explored how to “be a goldfish” and let go of the sting, focusing instead on growth and resilience ??
Human Connections
Sometimes, a simple conversation can lead to discovering an unexpected delight!
For example, meeting the author of a mystery novel featuring the quirky detective Noah Clue ??
It reminded me of the magic in human connections and how opening up to new people can lead to surprising friendships and stories.
If you're already here, please share your reflections with me, I’d love to hear from you! ??
And thank you for being on this journey with me! ??
Curiosity Corner
"Before the Internet young people compared themselves to their peers in schools or in their hometown. Today, they contrast themselves, and how they are doing, to peers in every school across the world."
Excerpt from "Small Data: The Tiny Clues that Uncover Huge Trends" by Martin Lindstrom
