On Wednesdays, we talk...

Happy NEW Year.

2019 was a year of amazing change, both personally and professionally. It's set us up for an extraordinary 2020.

Our partnership with Kids Help Phone and Crisis Text Line has been extremely fulfilling in more ways than one and I look forward to doing, even more, this year.

One topic I'm passionate about is bullies in the workplace, on social media, and in our personal lives. I've had conversations with many people, about this and fear has kept them quiet about their own situations. Until now. This is the year we help people get through this. Bullies are lurking, revengeful, spiteful, despite the fact they have moved on and landed well in their personal and professional lives. This is the definition of a bully.

A clean slate.

I'm walking into 2020 with a clear heart and mind.

If you owe me, have taken money from me that you didn't deserve, don't worry about it - you're welcome.

If you've wronged me, it's all good - I'm taking great lessons from you as to whom I don't want to be, and I feel sorry for you.

If you're angry with me, you've won.

If we aren't speaking, its cool (I wish you well), and I want you to be GREAT.

If you feel I wronged you, and you have told everyone but me...peace be with you.

Life is too short for me ( and you!) to have the pent up anger, holding of grudges, or to not receive the same love that I give.

Here's to 2020, I welcome you with open arms.

Spread kindness, not malevolence ( Malevolent comes from the Latin word malevolens, which means "ill-disposed, spiteful"; its opposite is benevolent, which means "wishing good things for others."

Peace, love, health, and happiness! ??
