Event Rescheduled! Welcome and welcome back. It's another amazing day in paradise. Thank you so much for being here. Please excuse my delay in posting this.  I posted yesterday about The Need To GROW Watch Party, happening today. And today I'm posting about it happening next week. Please excuse me for any inconvenience this causes. We're on the edge of a hurricane! So please stay home. I have to plans to be inside. If that's not you, I get it. That's what feels safest for me and my superhero. Believe me when I tell you, I'm not afraid to drive in the rain. We did it last week, on the way back from our stay in Boone. As we began to pass through Yadkinville the rain came pouring down so hard we got off the highway to wait it out.  The sky was clear when we started back on the road but as the night descended, we drive right into another storm. I could barely see the lines on the road. We didn't get off this time. I put on my hazards and drove around 40 mph, lik

Wednesday Night Watch Party Welcome and welcome back. It's another amazing day in paradise. Thank you so much for being here. I'm so excited.

Because I know this movie provides solutions and has inspired my work to create Homesteads for the Homeless, I'm bringing this movie to the people through a series of Watch Parties. The first is on Wednesday, August 30, 2023. Yes, for some that's tomorrow. Doors open at 5:30p. We will start promptly at 6p. Please register here . It will be a chance to connect with nature, self and others. We will watch and discuss this film as a way to really delve into how the world can be a better place AND we can be a part of making that happen. We a

Quantifiable Wins Welcome and welcome back. It's another amazing day in paradise. Thank you so much for being here whether it is your first time or you're returning. Thank you for your support. This post is inspired by Jimmy Davies of Every.Black . Every few months, because of the influx of new people attending their meetings, he would showcase his story, "A 30 Year Overnight Success". I feel it's time I do something similar.  The title "Quantifiable Wins" I need to attribute to a business consultant named Tiffany. I attended one of her workshops and although I found most of her content and the manner of her delivery not to my tastes, the phrase "quantifiable wins" has stuck. I have many to name and I'm pleased with each and every one of them.    Since I'm meeting people in different areas that don't connect to one another, with each environment I'm introduced to, it's like starting from scratch to get recognized.
