Let's Do Brunch! Philly Spring Meetup Recap


On Sunday, April 28th, we held our fifth Philly brunch meetup at SoleFood (1200 Market Street) and had our largest turnout to date. There were a diversity of industries represented from education, fashion, insurance, online media, and public relations. We continued the discussion from our New York session on how women represent themselves in business. Each attendee was asked to apply it to their own business and industry and we gained many different perspectives. It was a very inspiring event and if you missed this one, please be on the look out for our next upcoming meetups that we will host this summer.

Here are the remaining tips from our previous post:

Accept Change
Change is a given. Everything must come to an end in order to allow growth.

Consider yourself  a VIP/Think & Act Like A CEO
Whether just starting your business, or working for others, always hold your head high.

Step Outside Your Comfort Zone 
Don’t be afraid to try something new.

Celebrate Other’s Success
Congratulate your colleagues. Cheer for their success as if it were your own. Read about others who are where you want to be and learn from them.

Our first NYC Brunch meetup of 2013 took place yesterday at Highpoint Bistro & Bar. So many diverse industries and perspectives were represented. Our Business Girl Topic Day "Who Does She Think She Is?" addressed how women represent themselves in business and how open or closed minded we can be when it comes to sharing our resources.
 
Here are 6 Tips that are important to remember:
 
1. Keep a Positive Mind - Master the art of positive thinking. You are worthy and deserving of the best life has to offer, but also its challenges.
 
2. Know Your Value - Don't sell yourself or your time short.
 
3. Control and Learn from Your Emotions
 
4. Never Stop Learning - Stay up on current trends in your industry
 
5. Surround Yourself with Good People - Have a circle of people that encourage and support your ambition.
 
6. Celebrate Your Success  
Give yourself a pat on the back for a job well done. Do something you enjoy.
 
 
Thank you to everyone that came out!

Let's Do Brunch! Philly Meetup {Winter 2013}

Left to Right: L Ayers, Jamillah Yaasmin Johnson, Nikkia Moss, Anjelica Hill, Danielle Jeter, Chanel Tartt-Minor, Jasmine Wall, and Etophia Lane


Our first meetup of 2013 was another success. We returned to one of our favorite locations Square 1682 (121 S. 17th Street adjacent to the Hotel Palomar). Our Business Girl Topic of the Day addressed "The Power of Patience". Here's a peek at our tip sheet for those unable to join us:

By HAVING PATIENCE you:
• Become meticulous and attentive to important details.
• Think logically and use more common sense.
• More likely to be prepared and have goals in place.
• Understand your strengths and weaknesses.
• Will be able to establish your resources and needs and know how to manage them.

IMPATIENT people are:
• Much more impulsive.
• More likely to jump to conclusions.
• Make hasty decisions that ultimately cost their business.

THINGS TO REMEMBER:
• Have a healthy dose of AMBITION to establish your goals.
• Take the necessary steps towards those goals and evaluate along the way. Some will yield success and some may go horribly wrong and that is okay.
• Take action! Don’t get stuck and never give up. You can always come back to a goal if it wasn’t accomplished. Having patience will help you take those steps.

Our next Philly meetup will be Sunday, April 28th.

Thanks to everyone for coming out!
