FULL CIRCLE (OF TRUST) MOMENT: Two years ago I was invited to share a topic at @tastemakerconf in Las Vegas, seeing @chandiceprobst speak to my community at a @WordCampUS was a full circle moment. What an awesome origin story - so much personal depth & action items.

[Joe A Simpson Jr @JoeSimpsonJr]

IT'S SHOWTIME: My first @WordCampUS was virtually and this year, due to prior plans, I'm watching this year's edition remote. Below are my hi-lights from @WordPress Showcase Day. Eager for Day 3 & kudos to volunteers, organizers, speakers, and sponsors for putting on this event.

LEND A HELPING HAND: @WordPress Events like WordCamp Santa Clarita wouldn't be possible without the help of volunteers. Interested in giving back to your local community?

DON'T CALL IT A COMEBACK: Why have local @WordPress Events like WordCamps become scarce here in the States? I had the pleasure of talking w/ @adamweeks610, host of Open Makers on @OpenChannelsFM, sharing why we've rebooted WordCamp Santa Clarita.
