🙅♀️ ‘What to do about a boss who always says “no”’: Rachel Feintzeig wrote for The Wall Street Journal about how to understand why a manager might be saying no to your ideas and put in the work to earn more trust and get closer to a yes.

Thanks for reading!

P.S. Here are a few things that fueled this newsletter/me this week:
🐶 ‘Dynamic dog writers’: Just a reminder that other journalists and I will be hosting a free webinar tonight at 6:30 p.m. ET on how we leveraged our love of animals into new revenue streams.
📧 How to take a break from writing your newsletter: Newsletter writers are increasingly taking time off to grow their families, recharge with a vacation or cope with burnout. I recently wrote for The Inbox Collective about how five newsletters (including this one) took a break.
📈 ‘I didn’t want my manager’s job’:
wrote in her newsletter about how she navigated a career crisis and found work that aligned with her values.

clicked on Freelance writer Kaitlyn Arford link. Immediately found out I was blocked from accessing it. Consider getting rid of it then.
Not very interested in newspaper stuff. How about other sources, such as trades, associations, corporate, etc.
