Screens filled, ideas flowing, coffee pouring. ā˜•ļøāš”ļø Our last Community Coworking Day at Bamboo Detroit brought together freelancers, founders, remote workers, and creatives for a full day of free coworking, fresh energy, and real connection. Guests tapped into complimentary coffee + cold brew, collaborative workspace, and the kind of motivation that only happens when you’re surrounded by people building something too. This is what community looks like: strangers becoming collaborators, solo work turning social, and productivity feeling a little more inspiring downtown. If you missed this one, don’t worry — we’ll save you a seat next time. šŸ–¤ šŸ“¹ @melissalissab #BambooDetroit #CoworkingDetroit #DetroitCreatives #CommunityCoworking #WorkTogetherGrowTogether

This evening, I was able to share space and time with some beautiful women. I was a featured speaker at an event and had the opportunity to tell my story, unapologetically. I love carefully curated spaces like this. Della Marie is a free spirit, who says what she means and means what she says. I desire to empower people to walk in their truth and assert their voices without fear or regret. I am incredibly grateful for amazing Black women who keep inviting me to their tables to share my journey, wisdom, truth, and lessons with others. I am not palatable. I don’t say things that make people comfortable. I boldly, proudly, and confidently own every piece of myself and am grateful for the courage to walk the road that I was destined to travel. Thank you Mo for seeing, inviting, celebrating, understanding, honoring, and communing with me. Beloved, you are doing AMAZING healing work. I didn’t take many pictures because I was busy being present in those moments. However, this is a snapshot of a portion of the beautiful space. ā€œWe are each other’s harvest; we are each other’s business, we are each other’s magnitude and bond,ā€ from the poem Paul Robeson by Gwendolyn Brooks.
