#WCW with Melody R.
I swear, every time we get to another Wednesday, it’s hard to believe that 7 days have passed. But that’s ok with us, because it’s WEDNESDAY. If you’ve been following along, then you definitely know what that means.
Wednesday is one of our favorite days of the week here at Gals That Brunch because we’re all about ladies celebrating ladies. Of course, we don’t limit the celebration of ladies in our community to just one day a week, but this is the day of the week where we introduce you to our #WomanCrushWednesday for the week!
This week’s #WCW is new to the party, but we’re so excited that she’s here! As our new City Leader in the Bay Area, Melody is already a strong addition to our team! Becoming a City Leader of a group that gets together for brunch is a bit tricky in the middle of a pandemic, but Melody has taken it in stride and is making the most of the technology we have at our disposal.
