We are starting off 2023 with a bang! Welcome to the 2023 PT Snacks Service Challenge!

Here's the thing: I see nothing wrong with pursing goals to better yourself. In fact, I encourage it! But what if this year, instead of just focusing on pursuing things that benefit ourselves, we focused on the people around us? Imagine what may happen if we stretch ourselves to put others first and serve a need that we see.

It doesn't matter how big or small the service project, whether it's PT-related or not, or how much time it took to do. Do something for your community that helps you grow together! You've got until March 31st to complete it, but please shoot me an email of what you end up doing so I can share it with others looking for inspiration.

Listen to this episode for more details, but it you would like a free guide to help you get started with your own service idea, download it at:
