Taking the helm of a smaller nonprofit in a smaller state is daunting. Some would fold, while @corinnebrtn, Courtney and Ambar are soaring. Small no more. Stay Work Play is transforming on the regular. Taking an organization on a journey to elevate new voices and perspectives is one of our favorite things to do. @stayworkplay we are obsessed with the new strategic plan and brand. We cannot wait to see where it takes you. Thank you for being the most wonderful CHAMPION to us and all of NH’s young people. Check out their new brand and strategy!

This town is great for pumpkins and porches and the big event is THIS week. Keene, New Hampshire stacks thousands of carved pumpkins on Main Street for its Pumpkin Festival on Saturday, under two hours from Boston. Seriously, does anyone do pumpkins and jack-o-lanterns better than Keene? Check out the map on their Facebook page, found in the first comment, for details. (photos: Keenepumpkinfestival,org, moxietowns) #moxietowns #keenenh #fallinsmalltowns #pumpkins Come for the festival, stay for the college-town downtown and the foliage on the drive. On Fridays we share a destination. Because who does not need a small town getaway?

We didn’t bring home the award, but we DID get to see the Kahoots logo up on the big screen alongside some pretty well-established networking groups! Being nominated for a Stay Work Play Rising Star Award was an honor in itself (although I’m still not entirely sure who nominated us!). But the moment that really stuck with me came before the event, when my husband reminded me of one of our very first Brunch & Learns. I came home crying because no one showed up. I was ready to throw in the towel, but I believed in the need for a place where creative freelancers could connect. I knew I couldn’t be the only one trying to figure out this whole self-employed thing. Five years later, look at us. Kahoots has grown into something bigger than I ever could have imagined, and that’s all thanks to YOU. Without you, it’s just me sitting across from a presenter, wondering if anyone else is coming. 😂 I’m so incredibly proud of how far we’ve come and SO excited about what’s ahead. Thank you for showing up, believing in this little idea of mine, and helping make Kahoots what it is today. The award was nice, but this? This is the real win. ❤️ Come be a part of the magic by following us on Eventbrite! #SeacoastNH #SeacoastMaine #CreativeFreelancers #FreelanceCommunity #FreelanceLife #SmallBusinessCommunity #NetworkingForCreatives #NHBusiness #CommunityOverCompetition

🚨I’m still taking in Thursday night. Thank you to @stayworkplay New Hampshire for naming me Young Person of the Year at the 2026 Rising Stars Awards, and to Corinne, Courtney and the whole team for all the care you put into this. Thank you to Jay Poulin and @hebengineers for your support. This award isn’t really mine. It belongs to the young people and families at YDN who show up, speak up and lead every day. New Hampshire feels like home because people here made room for me. Now it’s our turn to make room for the next person. #RisingStarsNH #StayWorkPlay #hebengineers #NewHampshire #YoungPersonOfTheYear

A better question is… what didn’t we do?! We partnered with @ladyofthevineogt and hosted our second ever Black Glass Challenge. A wine tasting where you drink from a black wine glass and use your senses to determine what type of wine you’re drinking. So educational and informative… and too much fun. 🙃 We hosted our first ever Fore Play co-ed golf evening at Pease Golf. A night where women showed off their newly learned golf skills from our clinics in August. This will be a must do next summer. Currently accepting applications for golf course courses who want to partner. 👀 Wild Ivory was brought on to help organize and run the night of @fox.cottage.farm event The Bloom Effect at @birddogcider A night of celebrating flowers, organic farming, and the people who take this passion into our community. Whew… what a month. Who is ready for October? 👀
