Just a week ago, I blogged about celebrating my second anniversary as a work-at-home mom and writer. The past two years have truly been a fun learning experience for me. I learned a lot from my clients, fellow WAHMs and through workshops and events that encouraged me to continue on with this work-at-home journey.
I’ve joined a lot of work-at-home events, all of them organized by Manila Workshops and the WAHMderfullife Community. For the past two years, they’ve had two major work-at-home events. The first was called It’s a WAHMderful Life: A Work-at-Home Moms 101 held in 2012, which is where I met a lot of my WAHM friends now. The second one held last year was called WAHMderful Weekend: The Heart and Hands of the Work-at-Home Mom. It was a bigger event and for me, the most fun, because I was also invited to be part of the panelists.
This year, there will be another big WAHM event happening on October 25, 2014, from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. at the 12th Floor, Multi- Purpose Hall and Seminar Room C, Insular Life Building, Ayala Avenue corner Paseo De Roxas, Makati City.
Dubbed The Work-at-Home Weekend Expo 2014, this event gathers work-at-home wannabes, newbies and veterans in one exciting event that not only showcases various learning sessions but also a bazaar of home-based businesses and online shops. So, if you’re thinking of exploring working from home or even if you are already and just want to learn more, this is one event you don’t want to miss!
