    #BTF2024 - Long winded recap / appreciation post coming 😌 Yesterday, I realised we did something we’ve never done before. It was my first time coordinating a media team to cover press at a corporate event. And it was more beautiful because the first corporate event we covered was BTF® a black owned event ♥️ We planned with confidence, and on the day, we moved forward with that same confidence. It wasn’t until the end that it hit me— “ rah lol you actually haven’t done this before, and it turned out well!”😅 This experience reminds me that just because someone seems to know what they’re doing doesn’t mean they do. We often don’t admit when we’re navigating uncharted territory, but I want anyone out there reading this to know yesterday was our first time covering press at an event , and I’m so grateful to the BTF team for trusting us and collaborating, another example of close mouths don’t get fed 🤭 Some might wonder about how I have this confidence to do things I have never done, but tbh we all have, when you have a vision, passion, faith, audacity and ACTIVE cheerleaders in your life it’s a win and learn… I sat with some of the BlackCreateConnect team and called my dad first thing yesterday morning, his heartfelt prayer set the tone for the day. He prayed that we would: ✨Bring joy and inspiration to every conversation ✨Create meaningful connections and identify healthy partnerships ✨Shine a light on the BCC community for what it truly is ✨Amplify every person we meet in the best way possible And we did! The team was fantastic yesterday! Dheyshawn Artopé Lamar Harper-Campbell Norah Chilaka Nana M. Naomie Samarou thank your for your trust , patience and dedication ♥️ We had some giggles and chit chat with people that inspire us, including NYC Boss Lady, Jourds RL, Rapman (s/o Vashti-iona Beckford ),The Receipts Podcast, Zeze Millz, Pass the meerkat , Irene Agbontaen , Remi Burgz and many more. 😌 Huge congrats to Colorintech It’s inspiring to see your growth and development—it’s never easy scaling so quickly so well done👏🏾👏🏾 And to top off the day, just when I was leaving a lady from our community stopped me and said she has a final stage interview TODAY with Depop for the Data Platform Engineer Manager role (crossing my fingers) — and she found it through the Apply with Audacity campaign. 🙌🏾 That moment made me smile, cheer and Bogle, it confirmed that even as we’re still changing and growing, we’re still making an impact. Stay connected to BTF® and BlackCreateConnect to watch all the BTS interviews 🔥 Links to Follow us on IG 👇🏾 https://lnkd.in/gsrcrZqy https://lnkd.in/gkUMHjui
