Yesterday 10 minutes before my first live broadcast of my radio show, What About Me was scheduled to begin, the unthinkable happened my internet went down.
I certainly felt the stress of it.
When I first went into business for myself, I thought I would primarily miss the golden handcuffs, you know the paycheck. Turns out, what I really miss is IT support.
I’m not a techie, and picking up the phone in corporate and dialing helpdesk was a weekly routine. Working for myself, guiding woman to double their income, working the hours they want, doing what they love, apparently I am my own IT. So, after frantically searching for a bobbypin to hit the reset button on my modem, one eye on the clock, one eye on the modem, I admitted to myself, you miss the IT department. Minutes later, still no internet. I called my internet provider and they confirmed, my internet was indeed offline.
And Megan, comforted me with the familiar IT magic words “unplug your modem, and plug it back in again.” Voila, my internet was back up, IT was simply a phone call away!
Internet stablized, my first broadcast went off without a hitch. I even remembered to record it. Check out my featured interview with Dhylles Victoria, Publicist and Media Story Creator.
