Thanks to @mnbizmag for this feature. It’s weird because I feel like this **should** make me proud but it almost makes me sad? I am in the public eye A LOT and lately the anxiety that comes with this is indescribable. If you are new to following this page, everything started 8 years ago with #IAMMPLS because I wanted to put cool people in the community on stage and have everyone cheer for them and celebrate them because they are inspiring and their stories were ones I wanted to share. I loved fashion but I believed fashion is about storytelling and not highlighting models with unrealistic physical attributes. Since putting on these events it’s been so rewarding connecting people and high-fiving their contributions to our community, but with that comes criticism, self doubt and a lot of people judging you. It’s weird. I always think I’m not cut out for this role because I’m too sensitive but as I get a little older I try to remind myself of the young (fairly naive) girl that just wanted to celebrate people doing cool shit. Also I debated if I should wear a blazer for this feature but ended up wearing this vintage kaftan from @rewindminneapolis 💫
Check out the new @jaguarlandrovermpls electric Jaguar IPACE! ⚡️We were lucky enough to have the demo model in Minneapolis for a few weeks for our @iamconnectedstudio I AM Electric event, and it even made it’s way out to the @lora_hotel in Stillwater! ❄️ I may have to get myself one of these one day - it’s pretty fun! 🚗
This made me think of all of my creative and inspiring friends. Grateful for all of you! ❤️ 👋🏼
As a Bumble ambassador and spreader of the message, “bee kind,” it is really important for me to partner and celebrate local businesses that are doing good work and promoting kindness. With this in mind, I am really excited to introduce @bumble’s new venture, Bumble Spot! Bumble Spot is a new mission driven campaign in which Bumble recognizes local businesses that are built on the values of inclusivity, kindness and acceptance and partners with them to bring customers exclusive offers and discounts! Want to know how it works? Look for the Bumble Spot sticker in your local cafes, stores and restaurants. If you spot one (Wohoo!!), show your Bumble app to enjoy discounts on food, drinks and more! I’m very proud to announce that four of my favorite local companies have now become Bumble Spot partners: @thecopperhen - Show the bumble app for half off tap cider! @pinkujapanese - For every drink purchased, get a second drink of equal or less value for free (Mon - Sun 11am-2pm and 5pm-10pm). @sipmpls - Half off all drinks during Happy Hour (M-F, from 2-6 and all day Saturday). @fultonbrewing -special to be announced!
