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

By ·

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:

Red Carpet Premiere of St. Louis Children’s Hospital Frontline for Hope

Red Carpet Premiere of St. Louis Children’s Hospital Frontline for Hope

By ·

Yesterday evening, I was invited to attend the red carpet VIP screening for St. Louis Children’s Hospital docu-series Frontline for Hope. The series, which is filmed and produced locally here in St. Louis, follows several doctors at Children’s Hospital as well as their patients and families.

St. Louis Children’s Hospital is world-renown for their care in treating high risk children of all ages. Families from all over the world come to Children’s to get top-notch treatment, and the doctors, nurses, and care staff are the best in the industry. Frontline for Hope follows these little patients as they are treated at Children’s, and we get to learn about their families as well as the doctors and nurses who take care of them.

St. Louis has become a hotbed of reality television series. Starting off with Welcome to Sweetie Pie’s which is also locally filmed and produced (by Coolfire Media, the same production company that produced this series), and Nick Mom, Frontline for Hope will be broadcast on NBC local affiliate Channel 5 KSDK on Saturday evenings at 6:30 pm. Six episodes will air, the first being this Saturday, and there is even talk of the show possibly getting a nationwide broadcast.

Attendees at the screening got a chance to watch the first Frontline for Hope episode, which spotlighted little Madeline who was born with CPH, and fifteen year old Jessie, a diehard Mizzou fan, who had to have his colon removed through a risky surgery. There were moments when you laughed and cried, sometimes within minutes of each other. Seeing the miracles done at Children’s really fires up those emotions.

KSDK News 5 anchor Kay Quinn served at the night’s host and emcee, and did a fabulous job giving us information about the program before the screening and moderated a Q&A afterwards with several Frontline for Hope parents, doctors, and producers.

I hope that you will check out Frontline for Hope for yourself if you are in the St. Louis area, and show some love to this amazing medical center that is located right in our very own backyard.

Below (and after the break) are a few photos of the Frontline for Hope VIP red carpet event which took place at Chaminade Preparatory Skip Viragh Center for the Arts in the Frontenac area.

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

By ·

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!

There’s No Party Like a NOLA Party: Niche Mommy Conference 2012

There’s No Party Like a NOLA Party: Niche Mommy Conference 2012

By ·

Last weekend was spent in the wonderful city that is New Orleans at The Niche Mommy Conference. As I blogged before, I was invited to attend the first year of Niche Mommy as an attendee and a panelist. It was a great mix of bloggers who wanted to network, learn, and share their blogging experiences. Taking our blogs to the next level by making it our primary business is something that most of us attending aspire to do, and there were plenty of experts on hand to share their knowledge and guidance.

I went to the conference a day early to get a feel for New Orleans, since this was my first visit. On Thursday, I soaked up time in the Guerlain Spa located in The Roosevelt Hotel New Orleans, and then met up with other attendees at a pre-conference reception. Afterwards, we headed to the French Quarter and kicked it with the Collective Bias Crew (actually, make that two nights!).

The two and a half day conference was wonderful and was well put together. I love a conference that is located in a great venue and that runs smoothly.

Below are a few pictures of my escapades and adventures in New Orleans. I would recommend Niche Mommy Conference to anyone who wants to learn more about how to make their blog and social media presence and influence a full-time career.

I’m Heading to BlogHer ’12: A Girl Can’t Have Too Many Shoes

I’m Heading to BlogHer ’12: A Girl Can’t Have Too Many Shoes

By ·

In less than 24 hours, I will be heading to BlogHer ’12 in New York City. This will be my second year attending the conference, which is like the Mack Daddy of blogging events. It’s huge! With other 4,000 attendees, BlogHer is the biggest conference I have attended up to this point; but it’s also a do-not-miss event because it offers so much in terms of networking, learning, and taking your blog to the next level.

Last year, I had no idea what I was getting myself into, but this year, I feel uber prepared. I have kept my schedule light because I refuse to me stressed out! :-)

As a blogger and entrepreneur, it’s important to invest in yourself. These types of conferences are well worth the investment for me because I get to learn from those who are very knowledgeable as well as network and connect with brands, other bloggers, and companies that I’d like to work with.

If you are a blogger, if you don’t go to any other conference, I say you should go to BlogHer. And don’t let the name fool you. Yes, it’s organized by women but male bloggers also attend.

If you care to follow my exploits (and my shoe game) in the Big Apple at BlogHer, you can do so by following me on Twitter and on my Facebook page.
