A few weeks ago I met up with a few ladies from all walks of social media to talk about jobs that fit our influencer lifestyle. From foods, makeup, fashion, and being women of color, we wanted to be able to have safe space to talk about our goals and what sort of brands we want to associate ourselves with and how to approach a corporate/capitalist world. Our world’s views are ever changing and we’re very social media centric, meaning our views, politics, and everyday life are on display. There’s line of professionalism and personalization we still want and need to present to our audience but brands as well. This really updated me on our culture of what today’s corporate world needs and how we can fill in the gap without compromising ourselves.

Meet in Place offers private and serviced meeting spaces at reasonable costs. They provide a setting that is both modern and professional and with complimentary water (still and sparkling) and C O F F E E, my girls and I felt welcomed and ready to talk about our goals. With each room having high-speed wifi and beautiful flat screen tvs, it made presentations a breeze without the extra work of plugging in wires and cables.

As a freelance make-up artist who hopes to create their own brand, these rooms are perfect for business meetings with clients and social networking events. This was my first time here and I’m excited to know there is a place that I can set up personal connections in a professional and aesthetically pleasing space rather than at your local Starbucks. I hope to hold my own networking event involving PoC makeup artists and models here one day *fingers crossed*.
