Fab News: What’s New and Happening at The Cubicle Chick

Hi there! There’s been so many things happening with TheCubicleChick.com and my brand that I wanted to take some time and fill you in on all of the news.

TheCubicleChick.com continues to grow and evolve, and it’s because of my readers that I’ve been able to do the things I am doing. I never wanted to be just a blogger; I wanted to be a conduit for others to help them grow in whatever it is they wanted to be. I’ve been working on my second book, SHINE: 30 Days of Positive Life Affirmations, and will be releasing it soon. By far, this is the largest project I’ve worked on, and I really hope it’s received well.

Here’s more of what’s been going on in my Cube:

Watch My Panel On Huffington Post Live Segment About ‘Friends Before Money’

Watch My Panel On Huffington Post Live Segment About ‘Friends Before Money’

I was contacted the other day to be a participant in a segment on Huffington Post’s new online TV channel Huffington Post Live about ‘Friends Before Money‘, i.e. are friendships at work more important than salary or money. As a former HR manager, we were schooled to never get too friendly with coworkers, but many people, including some on the panel with me, disagree. A recent study indicated that people achieve more success and do better at work when there’s a friendly component in the mix.

Take a look at the segment below and let me know your thoughts!:

The panel included author and advisor Peter Bregman, Personal Development and Happiness Guru Britt Reints.

I Am a Panelist: St. Louis Social Media Club Blogging Panel 9/24

I Am a Panelist: St. Louis Social Media Club Blogging Panel 9/24

I am very excited to announce my latest appearance as a panelist for St. Louis Social Media Club’s (SMCSTL) September event and happy hour. Entitled ‘Blogging Panel’, it will feature myself and three other professionals who blog, either under their own entity, or for a company or business. I am elated about this because St. Louis Social Media Club is spotlighting a very important and crucial part of social media which is blogging, something that I am very passionate about.

The event will take place on Monday, September 24th from 6 to 8pm at Milagro Modern Mexican in Webster Groves. The event is free but you have to RSVP to the event (currently the event is on waitlist, but there may be additional tickets being released prior to the date).

I would really love if you are in the St. Louis area to join me, the other panelists, and St. Louis Social Media Club.

Looking forward to seeing you there!

I’m A Panelist at The Niche Mommy Conference!

I’m A Panelist at The Niche Mommy Conference!

I’ve been sitting on a bit of news! Last week, I was selected to be on a special panel at The Niche Mommy Conference currently taking place in New Orleans. The panel is called Moms Matter in 2012: Discussing the 2012 Election. As someone who does discuss politics from time to time on my social networks (and as a fangirl of Michelle Obama, which has been showcased many times on my blog), I felt that I had a lot of lend in this area.

I will be a panelist with several other moms, some who discuss politics on their websites and others who shy away from it. The goal of our session is to bring attention to the next election and the importance of our voices as a collective unit expressing our needs, no matter what political side we happen to be on. The session is being moderated by Lindsay Ferrier and Cafe Mom, which will be recording video of the session for their website.

Political affiliation and the presidential election can be sticky topic to discuss on any platform, and I know a lot of my colleagues don’t like to blog about the current political climate. This will be a dynamic and interesting session discussing all sides, and I feel very proud be a part of it.

The panel will take place on Saturday, and I am hoping I will be able to bring you pictures and tid-bits from the discussion, and furnish you with a link to the video when it is live!

I’m Headed to The Big Easy for The Niche Mommy Conference

I’m Headed to The Big Easy for The Niche Mommy Conference

Can you believe that I have never been to New Orleans?

Well, that is about to change, because I am heading to NOLA for The Niche Mommy Conference, taking place at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel near the French Quarter. This is the inaugural conference event for Niche Mommy, and I am very excited to be attending.

As you may be able to tell, I am an avid fan of attending conferences. There is so much to learn, I feel like I want to be front and center. And while I can’t attend each and every conference I want to, it sure feels good to be able to attend the ones that I really feel are special and will help me propel my brand.

I am so looking forward to the networking that will take place, as well as the plenty o’ talking points and takeaways that are sure to take place.

If you’d like to follow my experience while in New Orleans for The Niche Mommy Conference, make sure to follow me on Twitter and on my Facebook page.

NOLA, here I come, baby! I hope you’re ready!
