If you have time on Thursday, register and listen in. Let’s chat about what it takes to grow your great ideas into a real business (scale), why being flexible, agile & pragmatic is key, fixing the roof when it’s sunny (stolen from a friend) & understanding your market

Being obsessed with happiness can make us unhappy. Joy doesn't arise from ruminating about our emotions. It comes from immersing ourselves in worthwhile experiences. Happiness is not a goal to pursue. It's a byproduct of leading a life of meaning and engagement. Trevor Noah

Wetlands serve as crucial natural barriers, maintaining water cycles and stabilizing soil to combat desertification. Protecting these ecosystems is vital for slowing desertification and sustaining livelihoods. #AMCEN #WetlandsMatter

I penned this article really as my thoughts of dealing with so much all at once and with the recent passing of my father, I discovered so many friends who were dealing with parents or loved ones with dementia. We don't talk much about aging and ailing parents, demanding jobs
