A couple of weeks ago, we hosted our first event of the year, the ALHI ReNew You, at the stunning Shutters on the Beach and Hotel Casa Del Mar in beautiful California. It was an unforgettable gathering that left us all energized and inspired for the months ahead. Our fearless leader, Michael Dominguez, FASAE, CHSE, shared his always-insightful perspective on the economy and its impact on our industry and Peter Hurley, the world-renowned headshot photographer to celebrities, captivated us with behind-the-camera stories and a masterclass in building trust. As we cherish these memories, our hearts are also heavy with the recent devastation caused by the fires in California. To our friends, colleagues, and communities impacted, please know you are in our thoughts. ??
