• maybe start with a 10-minute presentation and move into a discussion
• Location: zoom, add on meetingplace?

Should we schedule the next date? Is Sept 20th, 12pm eastern working?

I can get it on the schedule! Should we reach out and see if anyone else is up for speaking? I'll just be coming home from a 3-day conference, so idk if I'm up for speaking that soon.

First MinT (Moms in Tech) meetup was on July 26th, 12pm Eastern.

We talked about Self-Care:
Welcome the group
Talk
Discussion

Feedback:

• welcome + discussion lasted almost 25 min, might be too long.
• ending the talk with questions to prepare the discussion and avoid too much silence
• the meetup was join by non-mom and dad
• encourage others to give a short talk / share an experience for next meetups.

Talk will be done by Cristien about the Working Mom Guilt.
