Today, from the bottom of my ambitious, combative feminist heart, I have a gift for you. There is a career blogger whom I find myself recommending to friends (even strangers!) almost daily. >> Skip to the end if you want to enter to win a free BullCon ticket! Nov 2 - 5 in Washington, DC. << Please meet Jennifer Dziura of Get Bullish, the home of "aggressive lady advice." Their mascot is a bull with a unicorn horn. I almost wrote "our" mascot, which shows you just how strongly I identify with the Bullish community. This is not news to anyone who knows me. Since college, Get Bullish has been my #1 career resource. And, to be quite honest, it is the only career advice that I can trust 100%. And the only advice I feel I can recommend to my queer, non-gender-confirming feminist friends. As a somewhat belligerent and philanthropically inclined feminist, much of the career advice online is irrelevant to me. Or insulting. We've all seen those terrible slide decks with cliche advice from mediocre white men (and women!). "Change the pitch of your voice to sound less feminine!" "Visualize abundance!" "You're just imagining oppression!" As my career has wobbled and triumphed unexpectedly over the last six years, Get Bullish has been a constant ally. So please, for the love of feminism & the destruction of the white heteronormative patriarchy, check out Get Bullish! Here are three reasons why you need Get Bullish in your life. 1. Get Bullish literally has the answers to ALL of your career questions. Or Jen will research & find a brilliant solution. Negotiation how-to? Check. Side hustle tips? Check. Submission-based advice column? Check. 2. Recently, Bullish has launched the Bullish Society, a way for feminist career types to strategically help each other take over the world in a private online space. I'm a member, and it's only $10 month. It's like Facebook, but without the trolls, plus unicorn humans who are really smart and invested in your success! Join here. 3. Finally, BullCon 2017 is in DC, from November 2 - 5. The Bullish Conference is now an annual event. Imagine a vacation + business planning retreat, with feminist career experts on site, a room full of feminist friends, and plenty of cocktails. Sounds good, right? A CAREER CONFERENCE FOR FEMINISTS WHO WANT TO MAKE THE WORLD & THE WORKPLACE BETTER Come to the 5th annual BullCon, where there is no reason you can't have a roundtable on sexism in the workplace followed by champagne. Literally none. GetBullish and the Bullish Conference have been bringing it since 2013. You want to be there, right??? Buy a ticket here. Or, enter to WIN a free ticket here! You owe it to your future self to do some planning, and meet some new feminist friends. Plus, Embassy Row in DC? A bunch of badass humans plotting the destruction of the patriarchy in the seat of American governmental power? Don't miss this! www.getbullish.com www.bullishconference.com #GetBullish
