Last Friday, a trio of fabulous ladies swapped thoughts on the job search, career transitions, yoga, finding a good therapist, the economy, and what to do when COBRA runs out. Oh yeah — plus, we shared some ideas for the DinnerGrrls.org – NYC 2010 season.
Here’s how the 2010 program is shaping up thus far:
- January – dinner – especially for women interested in figuring out / helping each other brainstorm ideas for how to translate “what you love” into “paying the rent”
- February – afternoon workshop then dinner – topic: how to set up a blog (bring your laptop :)
- March – dinner – especially for women interested in discussing cultural changes over the past four decades vis a vis women’s equality
- April – yoga 101 for newbies (and others!) followed by din
- May – TBD – something geared around helping women translate “what they love” into “paying the rent”
- June – TBD – something tactical to help women figure out how to actualize career nirvana. “I know what I want — but I just need brass tacks help getting there.”
- July – panel followed by a dinner – panel topic: boob jobs and bonuses — navigating beauty, the male gaze, and your career
- August – panel followed by a dinner – panel topic: drinking the Kool-Aid — are groups like Landmark simply cults – in – disguise?
- September – TBD – focus: bliss translation
- October – TBD – focus: operationalizing nirvana
- November – TBD – focus: knowing yourself / your SELF :)
- December – TBD – focus: knowing your bliss
