  • My Honest Review of Florida

    Since it has been one year of officially living in the sunshine state, I figured that it was a good time to give you guys my opinion of life here. If any of you follow me on social media, it’s pretty obvious that I love living in this state. I sometimes get asked if it’s better than living in Texas…

  • The power of consistency when learning to talk to people without sounding like a robot.

    I recently posted a quick story on my personal social media about the power of consistency when it comes to learning to speak with potential customers when you are working in a “sales position”.

  • The Overwhelming Task of Starting Something New

    I have to tell you; the process of starting a new business feels like a big mountain to climb over. It’s a (mostly) fun big mountain, but a mountain all the same. I think starting something completely new after having success in another field can be overwhelming for almost anyone. I am not a one step at a time kind…
