Loyal Followers, I am excited to make 2 announcements for this month of Thanksgiving! Finally, my trilogy of books is out on AUDIO! I have personally recorded all three books (my southern accent and all!) For those of you who have not read them, or don’t know about them, here are a few details. Would […]
So, this week is a vital week for all Americans. Regardless of political affiliation, we have a sacred responsibility to allow our voice to be heard through exercising our right to vote…men AND women, since 1920.

Early in my career, a very dear and special mentor taught me a very important lesson. He said: the value you place on yourself, is the value the market will place on you (aka: what you are worth). This concept can be harder to embrace than one may think. It takes confidence, truthful assessment, courage, […]
