The Local guides program means a new drive of exploration for me. Before I received the email inviting me to apply to attend Connect Live 2020, I was posting and commenting just for fun and for my own personal tracking record. Now, I see the program with an added perspective on how my contributions really do make a difference and I came up with the acronym C.A.R.E. – Community Connection, Archive of Knowledge, Resourceful Network, Enchanting Experience. I’ve been reviewing many different types of businesses. Now, I feel that I can expand my skills and become an avid sewer local guide.
