This is an excellent recap and key takeaways post. You did an amazing job summarizing at the end of the live session, and I love that it was your tip in here. Jotting a key takeaway from each speaker you hear - anywhere - has so much value. Makes sure you remain present. Helps you hone in on what works for you. And there’s value for the speaker to hear what resonated the most too, out of everything they covered. I am still in awe of the event you created. Thank you.

6 个月One of my attendees mentioned how amazing the content in this event was. Plus, I love that you get to mix and match what works for you. For those uninterested in LinkedIn audio or podcasts, they may have found value in the Speaking Strategies panel. Either way, it is rinse and repeat content as you navigate the many detours in solopreneurship.
