Hi
It's
brilliant to see lots of you embracing 23 Minutes a day for 23 days.
Making time for yourself is
so important. I've been sitting silently for 23 Minutes and have been for some lovely walks with Christine.
BrillBot now has a TEAM17 T-shirt and wants to feel part of the gang.
You can ask him for notifications here - say YES to everything!
He has some awful jokes, but he's great with TEAM17 reminders.
There is always tons happening in TEAM17 - here are the best bits:
New Members
We had some fantastic new members last week, who joined us for DAY17, please say hello to them in the TEAM17 Facebook Group.
Last year we started a buddy system and also held a Welcome Cafe in December. We always like to buddy new members with existing ones.
If you
have not yet connected with your buddy or are unsure who it is, then please get in touch with Sarah at hello@michaelheppell.com
17 MInutes With...
Angie Vale suggested I interview Eboni
Usoro-Brown and I'm so pleased she did. What an amazing and inspirational woman.
It's now live and you can watch it here.
If you have a great connection with someone, who you think would be great for a 17 Minutes With... please drop me a
message.
Quality Connections
Dawn Booth (Daily Dawn!) had a fab idea to connect us more.
There are some members you may not know as well as others.
We want to be able to link you with another TEAM17 member to have a virtual (or face to face) chat with, for just 17 Minutes.
If you would like be involved, then please Click Here by Tuesday 31st January and you will be automatically registered. We will then be in touch and match you with someone to connect with on 1st February.
HELLO17
I know you all meet brilliant people every day.
The thought behind HELLO17 is to introduce brilliant people to TEAM17, so we can expand our connections even wider.
It can be a spontaneous thing...
You could be attending a conference, taking a walk in the park, at a party, bumping into mums at your local play group - just ask them to
Say Hello to TEAM17 and share one thing we should know.
Post your video into the TEAM17 Facebook Group.
Accountability Group
Marek Kubiakowski hosted his second session last week
to help you Conquer the Fear of Public Speaking. You can watch the replay here.
The next one will be on Thursday 26th January at 8:15am.
PLEASE NOTE - the Zoom details have changed, as Fiona Setch has kindly offered to
let Marek use her Professional Zoom account.

Keep Being Brilliant!
