Happy Earth Day 2020 from Southeast Portland, Oregon. I hope you are faring well in these different times. Like everyone, I’ve been experiencing a huge mix of emotions but I’ve also been contemplating upsides of the changes to our world going forward. Just having cleaner air for all species is a huge improvement in my book. Plus, increased telecommuting = less traffic, and there are dozens more benefits I could list. Also, many people are trying out new and fun things online – here’s something cheery.
I was reminded by my colleague, Michael Katz, that now is a great time to be publishing content. Check out the short video below.
For email marketers or people with other digital marketing skills, it’s a good time for our businesses. I’ve started working with a political candidate running for Portland City Council; a voice teacher who also does personal ceremonies (weddings, for example), and it seems like someone new is reaching out to me every day for assistance.
I’ve also joined the team at Food Security Hawai’i and their program to eliminate food insecurity in Hawai’i. My friend, Jenny Pell asked me to participate and help out with email marketing and social media for the project and I’m thrilled to be able to assist them.
So, how about that much fresher air? Less traffic. Signs of Spring. The sound of birds. Happy Earth Day 2020!
My life tips series could be helpful right now if you seek some interesting ideas on how to live a better life. Also, my Song a Day series is bringing new music to many. Music is definitely helping me ease through right now. These autoresponder series might also spark ideas for your own offering – don’t forget what Michael recommends above – it’s time to put your thinking out in the world. If you need a hand with that, please reach out.
These sǝɯıʇ ʇuǝɹǝɟɟıp are surely challenging – and, there are opportunities popping up (like the spring tulips), as well.
Here’s my monthly newsletter – The Eleven. This month I had recently returned from a trip to Maui and missed the 11th. How perfect, Earth Day is here and it’s often when I like to send something out so … howdy! ( Thx, to Larry Lawson for his encouragement).
4. Nick Licata was one of the first political candidates I ever worked for and donated to. He was one of the most progressive members of the Seattle City Council and continues to do great work.
I just had lunch with one of the creators of this bit of goodness. She gave me a coloring book and a set of Nasty Women stickers!
Have a great Earth Day – join me in tikkun olam – healing the Earth. One of my projects, Farm My Yard, could always use support.
