January 1st vs May 2nd January 1st represents a 365 and ¼ day journey around the sun. One year comes to a close, another is just beginning. It is a fresh start, a collective opportunity for each of us to begin again and do better than we did on our last trip. The smell of […]
Reviewing My Three Words 2019
We’re almost at the end of 2019! Before I release my three words for 2020, I’d like to look back and my three words for this year. My three words for 2019 were leader, helpful, self-care. As these are not goals or resolutions, I only really have my subjective opinion on how well I lived […]

Is it cold in here? Learn how to avoid social selling like a chump.
Wondering how to become a Social Selling Superstar? It’s probably best to start with what NOT to do.
