Girls aren’t the only ones who “want to have fun.”

Everybody should!

Go ahead, lighten up – smile . . . even act silly if you want to.

Have fun!

Chatting With CHONILLA – Part 1

March 4, 2015 By Michelle Matthews-Calloway Leave a Comment

Whew . . . !

The upload of Podcast Episode 062 (and the next two upcoming podcast episodes) have been a long time in the making.

Y’all, I’m not even going to tell you when we recorded this podcast with the one, the only, Sherley and Clove aka CHO & NILLA of Montreal, Quebec.

Yep – CHONILLA.

CHONILLA!

Let me just say, Adrienne and I interviewed Shirley and Clove early in our podcast journey (we launched June 9, 2014).

We were such newbies, and thrilled to have these veteran interracial podcasters to come on our show.

Sherley and Clove have been blogging and podcasting from Canada for years, and we were thoroughly geeked out to have them on our show.

We wound up chatting for almost two hours, and it’s taken me with my anal self this long to get their show edited and up.

*Hangs head in shame*

I know they forgive me, though (thanks, Sherley and Clove!), and we’re happy to finally present our conversation with them.

Shucks, it’s almost time to have them back on!

*Grins*

#61|Positive Networks

March 2, 2015 By Michelle Matthews-Calloway Leave a Comment

Sunday evening I had the distinct pleasure of participating in a roundtable discussion composed of Black women podcasters.

We spent an amazing 1.5 hours sharing our opinions on several key questions of interested to women podcasters, as well as some of our best podcasting practices.

We were a group of women sharing and interacting, and building positive networks that should prove solid and long-lasting.

So, as you enter this workweek, who can you call, send a note or email, or invite to lunch?

Who can you ask to mentor you – or whom can you offer to mentor?

With whom can you take active, practical steps toward building a positive network?

Go ahead – pick up the phone, send that email, type a text or put a note in the mail.

Do it now – you’ll be glad you did!

#60| A True Picture

So . . . if someone snapped a photo of you right now, what would it reflect?

What a snapshot is to your life, your life is to eternity, so wouldn’t it be nice if eternity captured you smiling?

Go ahead and smile . . . just because.

Make that smile a true picture of your life!
