Merci!

J'aimerais aller à la bibliothèque pour demander un article que je ne trouve pas ici. Avez-vous un café ou un restaurant à emporter préféré, pas trop loin de l'hôtel… où les gens du coin vont !
(My French isn't this good - I got help from Google translate! But I can read French very easily.)

Merci. J'arrive vendredi 19 en milieu de matinée en Flixbus. Dois-je vous envoyer un message sur Bluesky?
J'aurai un guide les 21 et 22 septembre.

Thank you!!! I've been off the platform. I hope it's not too late to book things! I did book a guide for a part of my stay. I will be at the Omama Hotel and hope we can connect for a coffee!

@saraflacci.bsky.social Hi again - getting closer! Do you have any more information about reservations for the culture festival? I wanted to reserve (even though I am late).

Want to stand out from the crowd? Show up prepared and bring a story! Blog post: cathygoodwin.com/blogprep

New podcast episode dropped Friday: "You tell your origin story over and over. Don't waste it!" For solopreneurs, entrepreneurs and small business owners who want to use storytelling as a marketing tool.
cathygoodwin.com/podorstrat

Are you a service-based business owner--perhaps an entrepreneur or solopreneur? Your clients have to help you deliver the service. They fill out forms and answer questions and maybe get out of your way. This is how you do it:

podcast for small business and solopreneurs about finding a mentor.

Just because someone has an inspiring origin story doesn’t mean they’re the right mentor for you — especially if you’re a solopreneur or small business owner. Learn why and learn 3 creative alternatives to the traditional mentor model.

What happens when you get advised to tell a personal story--just because it's, well, personal? I encourage people to aim instead for credibility, not connection. The wrong personal story can create a disconnect.

What happens when you need a testimonial? An interview with a podcast guest? Intake with a new client?

You need THEIR story, not yours. Something that lets you into their world. Something that speaks to YOUR audience.

Here's how to do it. cathygoodwin.com/sharestory

Merci beaucoup! Je peux lire le francais et j'apprends l'italien pour llre tout les romans par Manzini sur Rocco Schiavone. C'est la raison pour ma visite.

Great! I can speak French better than Italian so we can be fine. I believe I make reservations for the festival in August? Do I need to book the museum of the megalithic area? As we get closer we can set up a time. I got a Flixbus for early morning of Sept 19.

@saraflacci.bsky.social I booked the Monomo Hotel in Aosta - 4 nights in September! If you are there maybe we could have a coffee? Any advice? I will book the cable car.

His best book yet! I ordered from ebay. You know there has to be another based on the ending.

What did I learn from building my new website (which is about copywriting and business storytelling for solopreneurs)?
I wrote a blog post about it (and I love getting comments on the new version). The new version feels more like "me." cathygoodwin.com/web-build

Sounds great! My friend here told me about Flixbus! One of the characters in the Rocco Schiavone series was always going to Milan "per lavoro."

Good thing you told me! I will find out what bus to take from Milan!

According to Trainline there are trains to Aosta from Milan. I plan to stop first in Milan for 2 nights and then 4 in Aosta, then 1 in Milan to fly home.

I'm going to try to have time to go up to Mont Blanc! Do I need to play ahead?

Bus or car? I arranged to fly to Milan and was going to take the train to Aosta, but I can take a bus!
