Reviews
Wise people always say, “Never be the smartest person in the room,” so we’ve got that covered!! I’m not an industry expert.

The blogs blend humor, storytelling, and insightful commentary to make complex topics approachable. I attend events and document what is said (and not said).
“What they said” is written in WHITE and “what I’m thinking” in PINK/PURPLE. You can read the full blog, just the white, or just the pink. Boom!
Permission to Fail on Social Media
TLDR: Attending a friend's first speaking event about growing social media influence, covering identity shifting, overcoming fear of being on camera, video hook strategies, and how posting consistently for 20 minutes a day can lead to 10k+ followers.
The Ghosted Speech That WAS, wasn’t, wasn’t AGAIN IRL.
TLDR: Kelly was scheduled to speak at an event she helped plan extensively, including volunteering on Mother's Day, only to be left off the schedule and ghosted by three different organizers, prompting a break from events to focus on her own projects.
Ai in Global Edtech Leadership
TLDR: Kelly volunteered to emcee at a multi-day AI education leadership conference, covering topics like K-12 surveillance, student data privacy, behavior prediction AI, accessibility, and tablets for toddlers, while navigating the event's high price tag by signing up as a volunteer.
TRIFECTA IMPERFECTA:
TLDR: Three events that didn't go as planned: getting stuck in traffic en route to Harbor Island Film Studios, attending a spoken word open mic that wasn't suited for note-taking, and accidentally going to the wrong location for a winter solstice yoga-painting class.
