October 2, 2013 by Rebekah in ETC., LifestyleI am seriously determined to make #letsbrag a thing. Why? Because I think it is important for us girls to share our accomplishments, and truly be proud of the things we have achieved. There is a big difference between being proud and excited when you do something awesome vs. being boisterous and obnoxious.
I was super excited to that Nicole from writes like a girl did a post this morning about the things she is proud of in her life. I wanted to make sure y’all see it, so click here!!!!!! Also, while you

October 1, 2013 by Rebekah in Career, ETC.If you work in PR, it is essentially part of your job to stay informed. There are a few PR blogs that I peruse every morning to get new tips, ideas and recommendations. I thought I would share them will y’all!
Let me know if I am missing any must-reads.
1) PR Couture
This is the perfect place for all of us fashion PR girls. I love that PR Couture is a marketplace of contributors sharing their two-cents; every time I look through it, I always find tons of tips that I can use to make my business

 When I first thought about who I would ask to participate in Workin’ Girl Wardrobe, the first person I thought of was Nicole Seligman, from writes like a girl. If you haven’t ever checked out her blog, DO IT NOW! Every time she does an outfit post, I am insanely jealous because I could never pull off all the cute things she wears.
I swear, dressing for interviews is always a stressful situation. Since Nicole is

September 27, 2013 by Rebekah in ETC., LifestyleYesterday, I read this article on New York Magazine, and it was like the writer was in my brain. (Cliff notes version: Today, our social media platforms act as our resumes, references, etc. Thus, we need to share our successes, and not surprisingly, men do it a whole lot better than women).
She eloquently and cohesively described everything I always feel. As a business owner, I need people to know I am good at what I do. Sometimes, I have a hard time sharing it publicly because I don’t want people to think I am obsessed with myself

1. When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up?
A child star on Broadway – my debut role would be Annie, of course. I even once complained to my parents that they weren’t stage parent-y enough. I know if I had

September 22, 2013 by Rebekah in ETC., LifestyleLet me just start off by apologizing because I don’t really know where this post is going. Normally, when I sit down to write something, I have an outline of what I am going to say. However, this time I am just going to ramble because I need to get something off my chest.
The question I have is: Why are we (as in gen-y girls) all so obsessed with dating (or our lack there of)?
Myself included, I feel like there is this big, scary cloud hanging over my head because I am probably going to end up a

 Last week, the lovely Amber Link, was our Career Confidential. She had tons a great advice, so I decided to break it up into two parts! The cool thing about Amber is that she landed the dream job right out of college. I would listen to what she has to say because she is definitely doing something right!
Working at a cool, hip start-up has sorta become a badge of honor. Everyone is looking for that

I am spending the next few days in the Windy City, which is exciting for a few reasons:
I am meeting with a handful of new PR firms to see if we can work together in the future. I have flown through the Chicago airport a million times, but I have never actually spent any time in the city. It is kinda cold there (well, cold relative to Texas), so I am finally getting to preview my Fall wardrobe!
These mini vacays are the best part of my job because they keep my life exciting, and I love meeting new

Hello! I hope everyone is having a fabulous week! This seems to be a common theme in my life: everything takes a little bit longer than I originally anticipate. I have learned to just accept it and embrace the mantra, “better late than never”.
Since I started my blog, I have been wanting to incorporate a column called, “Workin’ Girl Wardrobe”, where we take a peek into the closets of bad ass career ladies to see what they are wearing to work.
Getting dressed for work can be challenging. You want to look professional without being stuffy. And most importantly,

September 12, 2013 by Rebekah in ETC., LifestyleI feel guilty ALL the time.
I could be having the best day ever, you know the days when the stars are aligned–my hair isn’t frizzy, the barista prepares my iced coffee perfectly, I land major placements for all my clients, etc.—and yet I still have this gnawing sense of guilt in the pit of my stomach. It seriously never goes away. I think it might be a hereditary Jewish guilty kind of thing
If I am out having fun with my friends, I feel guilty for not being at my computer working. On the flip side if I decide
