Happy New Year! Doesn’t it feel unbelievable, amazing, and gosh-darn fantastic to be done with 2020? Hard to believe that one minute of one year can mean so much…but at 12:00 AM on January 1, 2021, we rejoiced with millions of others – WE MADE IT. And, we are stronger, more grateful, full of appreciation, and ready to unleash in 2021!
It’s a tradition that we each choose a word for the year—setting our intentions and holding each other to high standards of joy and personal fulfillment. Our words represent this unleashing – an emotional need to grab 2021 by the you-know-what and expand our mission and fulfill our strategic vision.
ACCELERATE. EXPLORE. LIBERATION. UNIFY. UNSTOPPABLE. Seriously – if those five words don’t represent a hunger to drive progress, be together, and be our oh-so-amazing Bae selves – well what would?
Tech Bae was founded to create a community and opportunity to support each other. After a year of webinars, Zoom happy hours, and online community engagement, we cannot wait to be together. But, as we all remember to wear masks, wash hands, and stay safe while we wait for vaccines, we still have a multitude of ways to stay together. For instance, we have more engaging and uplifting webinars coming; we have a new mentorship program we cannot wait to launch; we have a new web site and communities to engage with. New partnerships…important industry information-sharing…just to name a few.
Like you, we’ve been thinking, planning, and innovating. We are confident that we will be together this year. And, until then, we hope that you are as full of gratitude for our collective resilience and community as we are.
Post your words on our Facebook and LinkedIn pages. Let us know about your big plans for 2021. Share those stories, job opportunities, and successes with us. We love them all – and know that we are stronger together. 2021 will build upon these skills that we honed in 2020. Most importantly, we will accelerate our plans, explore new ways to connect, find liberation in our safe-spaces, unify our voice for the industry and societal progress, and be unstoppable Baes.
Deets coming shortly. We just couldn’t resist welcoming in the New Year together.
Here’s to an amazing one as Baes,
Brenda, Christina, Heather, Sarah & Seema
