Day 10: 10 Meetups I Could Run In My Area

List 10 meetups I could run in my area and how I could make sure everyone has a chance to participate.

1. Neighborhood stay-at-home moms meetup. We would meet once a month and trade ideas on fun, local free activities to do with the kids when we're at home with them. 

2. Debtors Anonymous. A meeting group where people can come to talk about the debt and learn tools for eliminating it once and for all. 

3. A meetup for people who want to quit their job but don't. Everyone would get to share their experience but also their resumes (which would be a great network opportunity). We could focus on one resume at each meeting and have people give their feedback and constructive criticism. 

4. Savers Unite. This meetup would be for people saving money towards a big dream, trip or goal. We would talk about and give tips on how to save even more money.

5. Creative women of color. I am a calligrapher, and I don't see (at least on social media) that many other local calligrapher/artists who are also women of color. Sometimes it's encouraging to see someone like you do what you do, so this group would be a place to creative women of color to meet and talk about creative stuff. 

6. Big Magic meetups. I'm in the middle of reading Big Magic right now, and I would love to meet with other people who have read or are reading this book. 

7. New moms who work meetup. There are so many challenges for new moms and the stress that comes along with going back to work. We could offer tips on great day care providers, what you'll need for pumping at work, and how to let go of work once you arrive at home. During each meeting, someone will share a success/failure they experienced in their going back to work experience. 

8. Minimalist meetup. This would be a chance for minimalists to get together and share their stories about living as a minimalist and how they deal with living with someone who is not. I'm recently inspired by "Zero Waste Home". We would focus a lot of how to create a zero waste home for ourselves. 

9. Sleep Aids meetup. One of my biggest struggles is not getting enough sleep. It would be nice to meet with a group of people who struggle or who have atruggled with the same thing and can offer advice n how to put yourself first and go to bed at a decent hour every night. 

10. Yoga meetups. I love doing yoga but I don't really like going to classes. It would be nice to meet up with friends, eat and chat for a while, and then do a little bit of yoga towards the end of our meetings.
