Blue Stockings: Women Supporting Women. Facing Up to Hard Things
About this Event
Join us in Emma's garden in Nottingham for another round table discussion.
As business owners and freelancers, we all have to face hard things.
When you are working on your own, you can put off doing things that need to be done. Nobody is going to come after you & nobody keeps you in-check.
What are some of the things you find hard to tackle?These may be different for different people? Difficult admin, difficult conversations, difficult decisions.
- What strategies do others use?
- Learn from others how to make things easier on yourself.
- Have you wisdom to share?
Sometimes its good just to be able to tell others about it, sometimes others have been there before & have great tips on how to make things a little easier, sometimes its good to know you're not on your own.
Come together for a womens business round table discussion.
Sharing wisdom and tips over lunch.
We'd love you to join us for lunch - it's a bring and share so please bring a vegetarian or vegan dish or anything that fits a particular diet you follow. We will supply a free glass of bubbly - both alcoholic and not.
Expect a relaxed atmosphere, opportunities to ask questions and to share information and offers from your business.
The address will be supplied to ticket holders. We recommend coming on bus or tram & then there's a 5 min walk at the end.
If it rains we will run the meeting online instead and will send you the link to join us.
This meeting is free for Blue Stockings Monthly Subscribers and £10 for guests, so do invite your friends to get a ticket too.
We find that in-person people often want longer for meeting and having conversations, so you can arrive anytime from 11.30 for informal networking and the meeting starts with introductions at noon,
Ticket numbers will be limited, so get your ticket soon to secure your place.
