Happy Thursday! I’ve been exploring the Netherlands this week (Groningen and Amsterdam) and it’s quite lovely. Definitely planning a trip back here soon. Also, THERE ARE SO MANY CATS. I love it.

Trello Tip

Set up automation so that when you check off a due date, your card will move to your done list!

I walk through how to do it in this video, but you can also just copy the format of my rule below.

Trellowing the Web

Great content from PM72 event this week! It started on Monday, but still going throughout the day! Checkout the schedule for great content for Project Managers about various tools, including Trello 😊
I gave a talk a few days ago with a colleague about how to pick the right project management tool. Recording isn’t available just yet, but we did make this handy PM Tools Matrix to help you compare and contrast the project management tools available and decide which one is right for you.

Joiner’s Journey/Brittany’s Bets

I travel quite a bit. I’m currently in Amsterdam as I write this, and I made a video about how I packed for 10 days in a single backpack. This is a combo seciton as you’re literally seeing me prep for a journey and getting a tour on minimalist packing, but you’re also getting a spot-on recommendation for an amazing travel backpack by Cotopaxi* if you’re in the market for one!

*this is an affiliate link but I’d still recommend it even if it wasn’t. I’ve had it for years and can’t get enough Cotopaxi.

No poll this week, but if you have any specific feedback you want to share, you’re always welcome to shoot me an email at brittanyjoiner15@gmail.com!
