Variety Talk — Online Meetup

Pull up your online chair, have a real beverage, be your variety self. Let's meetup online to talk, share, celebrate, listen, support each other, and network for new adventures and opportunities.

On the one hand, being a variety person can be amazing, fun, and enjoyable. We can share stories, experiences, successes, connections, opportunities.

On the other hand, being a variety person can be hard. You may be tugged in lots of directions, juggle diverse activities, jobs and people, and others may not "get" your diversity and complexity. We can support each other!

On the third hand (!), being a variety person may also involve knowing how. Let's share tips, techniques, resources, etc.

If you can, come ready with some of the following:

• Your Variety Backstory — Something about why you consider yourself a variety person, such as a little history, a story, or your feelings and thoughts.

• Pandemic and Your Variety — How being a variety person has made dealing with the pandemic easier and/or harder.

• Your Recommendations — Things that nourish your variety, online and/or offline.

• Your Questions — Things you'd like to ask other variety people.

• How You Might Help — Ways you might be available to help or connect with other variety people.

We'll use the Zoom meeting platform. The meeting link will be visible once you RSVP to this meetup. I'll update the link each month. Try to join the meeting five minutes or so early to make sure everything is working for you. The meeting link will be active and live about ten minutes early.

So, pull up your online chair, have a real beverage, be your variety self. See you soon!
