Hour You Justifying Your Fee? (Webinar Attendance, Not Whether We Attend Dance)
Disclaimer: Everything below is a mix of what I observed and heard during the event. The goal isn’t to pinpoint "who exactly said what," but to share (usually) an outsider's view and overall perspective on these industries. I’m not here to act as a definitive firsthand source—readers should do their own research. I hope this inspires you to attend events, explore new industries, and hear what leaders are presenting. These notes combine my observations with thoughts on how things could run smoother and how ideas connect (IMO). I’m not an expert, you know? Just hanging out in the room with them. Enjoy!

It’s time to get online and find out how much money I’m worth! This is hosted by Dress for Success (a company that has been stepping it up in “events” lately, and I keep prioritizing them above most others. You’ll see, I’m about to join their leadership program in a week or two, too). Then after learning from their 1 hr online, I’ll have a lot to do and then MAYBEEE go dance again. But, let’s see what my daughter wants to do. And me, too. Regardless, I have a lot going on lately and these blogs can’t take the priority. But at the same time, don’t wanna not write nuthin’ huh?
Why Attend: I am curious to hear how they encourage us to defend our value and hourly pay. For me, this is extremely relevant and helpful. So, I’m grateful for the advice! :)
