Have you even been faced with a situation that has just zapped all your energy? Could be personal, could be professional. What do you do? You can’t stay under your blankies for too long.

So What’s Next?
As we get into the craziness of the holidays, we seem to let things go and blame it on the craziness of the holidays…there is a pattern here. For me, I have been lax on my blog posts because after all, isn’t everyone too busy to read what I have to say? I decided this […]
