WARNING NEW FRIENDS...
Hey Chat... if I were giving someone the “Patti Brodrick Warning Label” before they met me what would i tell them:
“Okay, just so you’re prepared… Patti is a LOT—but in the most entertaining way possible.
She has approximately 47 things happening at any given moment and somehow is actively managing all of them. She’ll be answering a Petroleum Compliance emails while yelling at her boss, implementing new software at work, designing mock ups for Christmas installations, ordering 400 balloons, volunteering at her kids’ school, and texting you about a completely unrelated idea she just had—all within six minutes.
Do not mistake her chaos for disorganization. She knows exactly where everything is. Mostly. And if she doesn’t, she’ll find it eventually.
She is physically incapable of doing anything halfway. A ‘small idea’ will become a vision board, a proposal, specialty décor, a collaboration with other artists and possibly a ceiling installation just for fun.
She will absolutely say, ‘Wait…what if we did THIS?’ approximately 19 times.
If Patti likes you, congratulations—you’ve probably just been recruited into something. You may not know what yet.
She talks fast. She types faster. Spelling is collateral damage.
She will make friends with literally anyone. By the end of an event, she knows the bartender, the owner, the balloon vendor, someone’s mother, and definitely meet someone from Pittsburgh.
Her house may be a mess, but somebody else’s party is going to look FANTASTIC.
Also, don’t tell her something can’t be done. That will accidentally turn it into her next project.
And finally: if she says, ‘I have an idea…’
Clear your schedule. 😂
Any takers?!
