I’m so excited for this opportunity to learn wisdom from leaders in areas of my interest. Thank you Mubark team for providing this platform for the community- this is a beautiful beginning of the best yet to come.
my friend jen is doing a Pitch & Pour talk on Dec 7th about mental health and trauma-informed care - jen you're awesome and thank you for doing important community work and i wish i could be there to hear your talk!
I love this platform for people to tell their passions and stories. I was honored to tell mine at the last Santa Ana Pitch and Pour event and had so much fun!
