I’m Christie Verbrugh-Post, founder of Post Script, and I want to welcome you to a space where my hope is…

Marhaba! My name is Christie

When I arrived in Abu Dhabi in 2023, I had just left behind a 20 year career in the Canadian public service. I had managed countless programs and projects for Canadians over the course of my career, and I felt like it was time to focus on myself for a change. I knew I wanted to continue being of service, and I knew that I put my public service savviness to good use by helping other women like me find their footing and put their hard earned skills and experience into action by running their own businesses.

Mark your calendars! May 28th will be our next Cam Mark your calendars! May 28th will be our next Camel Circle day... since last week’s co-working day turned out to be a resounding success, I’m bringing it back! I'm workshopping the name, so don't get too attached. If you have any suggestions, please share them below! 👇 I'll be sharing a link to register in Stories this week, to help keep track of attendees and to ensure there's lots of food and coffee to go around, so stay tuned! Please tag a fellow businesswoman who could use a friendly circle. 🥰 Looking forward to the next one! #AbuDhabiBusiness #UAEBusiness #AbuDhabiBusinessWomen #WomenInBusinessAbuDhabi #MomsWhoWork #WorkingWomen #BusinessCircle #PostScriptAE
You've been patient and waited a long two weeks fo You've been patient and waited a long two weeks for this. Thank you to everyone for their support while I recooped last week instead of writing and recording a podcast episode for you! This week I'm offering up some of my wisdom on what goes into solid, sustainable, and ethical pricing. I'm also putting into real life example so you can experience my thought process. I hope you enjoy this one! ❤️ #ThePostProductionPodcast #PostScriptAE #SustainablePricing #EthicalPricing #ChargeYourWorth #AbuDhabiBusiness #UAEBusiness
Ten women • one circle • zero laptops. We gat Ten women • one circle • zero laptops. We gathered in my living room, tea or coffee in hand, and swapped “co-working” for soul-feeding with lots of chuckles, lots of real talk, lots of self-deprecation (mostly from me!) and, most importantly, lots of lifting each other up. With each question we peeled back another layer of skill and sheer gumption. By the final story we’d moved from mostly being strangers to a becoming a little brigade of light-bulb moments. I can’t wait to do more of this. Thank you for giving me the privilege of welcoming you into my home, of feeding you, and of letting me grow from you. I appreciate you all deeply! 💙 Deepest gratitude to @biscuits_bycaroline for the wisdom and encouragement biscuits! #WomenSupportingWomen #AbuDhabi #PostScriptAE #AnythingIsPossible
From the Great Vault of Sass, this quote comes to From the Great Vault of Sass, this quote comes to you today as a reminder that charging fairly lifts you up and gives you fabulous posture. Heels are obviously optional, but boundaries are essential. They make heeled Birkenstocks, right? #WisdomWednesday #ChargeYourWorth #WomenInBusinessUAE #AbuDhabiBusinessWomen #PostScriptAE
If you suffer from Chronic Discount Reflex, you’ If you suffer from Chronic Discount Reflex, you’re in good company. So many people I speak to, including myself, have experience with this affliction. But there is good news. The more you push through the knee jerk reaction to lower the worth of your services, the less you’ll be affected by it. Just like going to the gym and lifting weights or doing squats for the first few times hurts like it’s nobody’s business, suppressing that feeling to “sweeten the deal to close the deal” will hurt at first. Notice, then take a pause when it surfaces. Remember all the ingredients that go into your rates. The right clients respect the full recipe. #ConfidentInvoicing #WomenInBusinessUAE #PostScriptAE #KnowYourWorth #AbuDhabiBusinessWomen
🚨 TWO DAYS LEFT 🚨 This Wednesday (from 10 A 🚨 TWO DAYS LEFT 🚨 This Wednesday (from 10 AM until 2 PM) my living-room-turned-boardroom becomes Abu Dhabi’s tiniest co-working oasis. We’ll trade stories, system and mindset fixes, licensing tales, and unlimited caffeine… but we’re almost at capacity. 🐪 Want in? Slide into my DMs for the secret address. 🚖 Pro tip: Parking is scarcer than rain in July, so please grab a taxi or hop on public transport and arrive stress-free. Come for the coffee and pastries, leave with some practical advice, and renewed business energy (and possibly a new biz buddy who spits less than these two). See you Wednesday! #CoWorkingClinic #WomenInBusinessUAE #PostScriptAE #AbuDhabiBusinessWomen

So… Apparently the camels failed the background So… Apparently the camels failed the background check. As a result, our April 30 Co-Working + Business Clinic is moving to… my living-room boardroom (a.k.a. Post Script HQ). What’s changing • Venue: my place (yes, there’s Wi-Fi; no, camels don’t live here) • Perks: unlimited coffee & tea on the house, equally unlimited encouragement • Cost: still free, just bring your laptop and that ideas you’re working on What’s NOT changing • Tiny group (approx. 10 humans, 0 camels) • No-pressure business advice and encouragement • Terrible parking. Please taxi or use public transport unless your car can parallel-park like a desert goat Space is genuinely limited. DM me to let me know you’re coming and I’ll send you the exact location. First come, first served… then caffeinated. Tuesday 30 April | 10 AM – 2 PM Come for the coffee, leave with a plan, and maybe a new business buddy who spits less than a camel. 🐫 #CoWorkWithMe #BusinessClinic #PostWorkPopIn #WomenInBusinessAbuDhabi
