Hello solo - sometimes you don’t need a guest to share some light. That was the case last Wednesday night at the office. I had met with people all day and although the sun was setting, I wasn’t ready to go. I began to think about bravery, positive thinking and what it takes to just start things. I thought about why I started my own business and how I pushed through the tough moments. It brought me to smirk, shed a little tear and hit record. Pinky promise that when you listen you will start something too...
