Link Love, Vol. 71

Happy (Halloween) weekend, friends!

If you’re local to Chicago, I’ve got two updates for you: The first, book a bike in my 5 p.m. SoulCycle class on Saturday — and bring a friend to ride for free! (A friend who will that’ll split the cost of a class with you, ideally. Know what I’m sayin’?)

Secondly, I’m speaking/delivering the keynote speech at Go Blog Social on Saturday morning. Wahoo! It’s all about “How to Find Your Passion.” Tickets are available here (until they sell out); if you can’t make it, I’ll be snapchatting (username: ‘coralsncognacs’) and tweeting from the conference all morning. For those who aren’t in town/who can’t make it, did you want me to recap my speech on the blog next week?

This should be fun… Remember what happened last time I spoke in front of a big group of people?

• I’ve been wearing a new fragrance lately (Chloe Eau de Parfum) and SO many people ask me where it’s from. It comes in a smaller, carry-around size if you want to test-drive it first.
