Published by on January 31, 2015 | Leave a response

No, I’m not gonna step outside and put my bare toes in the acres of snow that surround our house. Though maybe I should. It could be quite invigorating. I get the chills just thinking of it…brrrrrr! What I’m referring to is an amazing new opportunity for women (if you’re a guy, please read on […]

How’s your 2015 so far? Are you still writing 2014 when you need to note the date? Have you taken any steps toward your big goals yet? Are you still ready to take on the world? Or maybe, not so much. If you’re like me, the first week of 2015 might have been a bit […]

Published by on January 4, 2015 | Leave a response
