Pivoting a Business During COVID
Christy, Chief Parent Officer at Colugo, is joined by special guest Nikki Osei-Barrett, owner of Osei PR and co-founder of DistrictmotherHued and events such as The Momference and Mommy en Blanc. The Momference, the premiere conference for millennial moms of color, was scheduled to be in-person at the end of May. But, when COVID hit, Nikki knew she would have to pivot. She talks to Christy about how she and her team leaned on each other, avoided panic and prioritized what needed to be done in order to create The Momference Digital, now scheduled for Saturday, June 14th. Nikki did this all while parenting 3 kids at home, and her insights are valuable whether you’re running a business or running a home (or both!) during this pandemic.
Mentioned in this episode: The Momference, DistrictMotherhued, and the joy of a 30 minute nap or a bath with lavender epsom salts.
