Truth: You need a plan here too.

Myth: When meeting with politicians and lobbying, what matters is your message and not what you wear.

Truth: What you wear does matter. I know this is a little late because the NORPAC Mission to Washington already happened, but someone suggested I cover this topic anyway. If we have to do this again next year, we’ll be prepared. By the way, to all those of you who went with NORPAC, don’t worry; you all dressed just fine with no glaring mistakes.

Myth: For the Celebrate Israel Parade,
it’s all about comfort.

Truth: You do need to look good.

Myth: It’s okay to just buy whatever maternity clothes you like.

Truth: You need a plan here too.

Truth: You need a plan. You’re in the first trimester and already a lot of your regular clothes don’t fit you.
