As a single black female of a “certain age” who has relocated to Nashville, I’m so excited and thankful to have found the Urbaanite Newsletter. It’s shown me how much Nashville has to offer, provides variety and numerous opportunities to connect with the community, support our businesses, and to get “plugged in.” I can’t wait until I find a corporate job in my field and get settled so I can visit the spas, restaurants, etc and take advantage of the conferences and events shared. Until then, I’m loving the list of free community events and offerings. Thank you!!! And may this publication enjoy continued success and engagement.
Wow! Thank you so much we are so glad you found us. And claiming your new role is on the way.
