Two highlights of this busy week were attending Boulder Chamber's Women's Night of Connection to hear from SOS Jena Griswold, and joining MPIRMC for a fireside chat with Rachel Benedick. Two inspiring examples of staying true to yourself while leading successful change!

I'm so looking forward to the first Better Events Conference on Dec 20th! Connecting with other #eventpros, focusing on some #professionaldevelopment, and #planning for 2024. It's going to be amazing 🎉 bettereventspod.com/conference

I'm trending toward awesome!! Thanks @BetterEventsPod for a wonderful day. #IYKYK

The closest thing to heaven on this planet anywhere is a quiet Christmas morning in the Colorado snow. #optimistic for a #WhiteChristmas

Finished one place out of the diamond league, and Duolingo asks if I want to 'repair' my status for 2,000 gems. Already fell for that once - lost 2,000 gems AND had to work my way out of obsidian all week! Not falling again, maybe time to give up on this educational avenue. 💔

For the sake of our travel economy, thank goodness this merger wasn't allowed. Also, JetBlue - raise your standards! northstarmeetingsgroup.com/News/Industry/…

Labor rates are going up, but banquet/event services are still one of the areas where staffing is most challenging. #EventPros, have you had positive or negative experiences with this in the past couple of years you can share? meetingsnet.com/meeting-planni…

Interesting trends emerging from the Meetings Today 2024 planner survey. 56% of us love the industry so much that we didn't spend any time last year considering alternative professional endeavors! #Eventpros #LoveWhatYouDo meetingstoday.com/articles/14440…

Cardio at 2,000 ft and this view - not a bad Friday! #eventpros #WorkLifeBalance

This is a very important issue that I doubt many people are aware of. Pulling for Carvalho to win so she'll have the chance to set thoughtful regulations that aren't directed by financial interests of a single corp, which is the current trajectory we're on.

Vive les jeux olympiques! #MerciParis2024

What's the opposite of patriotic? That's how this MI commercial-turned-#LA28 preview made me feel. We went from streamlined choreography with 100+ artists, a national orchestra and a suspended(!!) piano, to a drunken crowd ogling someone twerking in cutoffs. How embarrassing.

Kroger now admits it jacked up milk and egg prices above inflation. Millions of shoppers had no choice but to accept it. This is what happens when five companies dominate over 60% of American grocery sales. Minimal competition means maximized price gouging.

The world's 10 richest people saw their fortunes skyrocket by a jaw-dropping $64 billion after Trump's victory Tuesday night. Make no mistake: the ultra-wealthy and Wall Street will make out like bandits during the second Trump term. Everyone else will be left behind.
