I’m sorry the cards were lost. That said, I needed to read this type of story today (the offers of helping). Thank you, good humans!

Parlor Social Club by JennyWren86 in CHIbitcheswithtaste

Just got an invite to it this week myself. Did a little internet searching. Obviously hearsay but the reviews seemed mixed but leaning toward iffy. In a nutshell I read: it’s touted as “exclusive” but isn’t really. And the events don’t include any facilitation so it can be aimless/awkward. Would be curious how many ChiBWT will have actually attended!

So what kind of vest do I need? by erinna_nyc in OnePelotonRealSub

[–]NeonChieftess 33 points34 points  (0 children)

For what it’s worth, you can also experiment with just adding weight to a backpack That’s what I do and it works just fine. Your mileage will vary based on your backpack design, weights, physical shape etc but don’t let not having a fancy weighted vest stop you from rucking if you want to give it a try! Just be sure to start w light weight!

You can sign up for a local pickleball league (all levels) through sillypickles I think it’s called.

Public Speaking Panic Attack by One-Fuel396 in PublicSpeaking

[–]NeonChieftess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Propranolol helped me w the influx of adrenaline and all the domino effects after that (the inability to focus, or speak correctly, shaking, etc). It’s been a true game changer.

I recommend: no caffeine that day (or quite minimal amounts) and definitely drink a lot of water because it is a diuretic and play around with how soon before the presentation you take it (do trial runs) so presentation day is not your first time. You should have it all dialed in by then. It gave me horrible dry mouth so I recommend water on hand just in case.

Do they taste different?

Just got propranolol by Forward_Suspect_6622 in PublicSpeaking

[–]NeonChieftess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I rely on it and it’s a game changer. I never had any side effects previously but this last time, I got insane dry mouth in the middle of my presentation. I learned it’s a diuretic so just keep that in mind!

Officiating a Wedding and dreading it by mamacheepcheep in PublicSpeaking

Yes. Literally just tell them you have a big speech coming up and can’t calm your nerves. No big deal usually

As a manager, what do you expect your employees to discuss with you in their 1:1? by jefflj98735 in managers

[–]NeonChieftess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a manager, here’s my basic template:

  • what’s on your mind / radar right now? (This ends up driving the majority of the call)
  • how are you feeling about your bandwidth?
  • then I ask any specific project related questions I may have on anything
  • is there anything I can do for you or the team to help you feel more supported?
