Since Mother’s Day is coming up…I wanted to do something different on one of my episodes and make an ode to mom. In the show notes, there is a link where you can leave me a voice message. It goes right into my Anchor account and I can add it to an episode. So…leave a message about a special memory, experience or a simple love note to your mom. My goal is to put these together on Mother’s Day and have a Mother’s Day special. This will only work if you take a minute and do it. She is worth it=)
