How to speak in front of 1200 people

by Jenna | Feb 4, 2014 | Sparkly Love

Last September, Chandler and I went to PechaKucha in Vancouver, which is held every month at the iconic Vogue Theatre. It’s a global event where 12 speakers are asked to share 20 slides but only have 20 seconds per slide to get their idea across. I was so...

Arlo takes his first steps! Such a surreal moment Arlo takes his first steps! Such a surreal moment as parents to watch our baby walk on his own. So grateful my parents were also there to enjoy this special moment. Now apparently the fun really begins 🙃

4 years ago I agreed to go on a date with a guy I 4 years ago I agreed to go on a date with a guy I met on OkCupid. At the time I was 36 and had been single a loooong time with many disappointing first dates under my belt. Regardless I remember being cautiously optimistic when I arrived at the Birds and the Beats in Gastown. It didn’t take long before I knew something was kinda special about this one! Orson and I talked for almost 4 hours that Sunday afternoon. Since then our lives have been a pretty insane ride 🎢. Our greatest adventure has been becoming the parents to our little joy bug Arlo. I’m so grateful Orson and I found each other when we did because looking back the timing was so divine. We really are such a perfect match, l and I’m so thankful we get to co create our lives together. I love you Orson and can’t wait for all the amazing adventures that await us and our little family ♥️♥️♥️

It’s been a while since I last posted anything @ It’s been a while since I last posted anything @makeitshow related on my IG. As many of you know, we decided not to run our holiday shows last year. The decision was made in early fall and was based on the uncertainty of how to navigate all the restrictions, and what the PHO would be around large scale events. In hindsight we could have probably pulled off the shows, but as a new mom to a rambunctious + adorable one year old, the stress just wasn’t worth the gamble. I had to weigh the pros and cons and in the end I chose to follow my intuition and prioritize my mental health. The older I get, the more I learn following my gut is something I never ever regret. Instead I led an 8-week online course called Launch It which was designed to help the maker community launch a holiday bundle online. I teamed up with two powerhouses @wonderful_ida @dianaluong_ , and we had such a blast leading an amazing group of folks through the ins and outs of launching. It was so inspiring to see how the group came together and in the end felt like a family. The launchers did such great work and we’re so proud of them! Moving forward in 2022, we won’t be planning any spring Make It shows. Looking at the tsunami of covid right now, it just doesn’t seem likely that this sh*tstorm will be cleared up by then. I am optimistic for the holiday season, but at this point in time who really knows what the future holds. A decision doesn’t need to be made until late summer so there’s time to wait and see. In the meantime I will be evolving the Make It IG account to profile authentic stories from brave souls who are navigating through this pivotal time. There’s nothing I love more than sharing stories of how entrepreneurs overcome challenges through personal growth journeys. It really doesn’t matter what you make or sell, it’s truly about who you have to become in order to make it happen. I am still growing and evolving myself - especially now as I navigate motherhood. Please follow along on @makeitshow and shoot me a DM if you’d like your own story to be featured. Thank you and sparkly love 💖 Jenna
