By the Ocean Sunny 75 Degrees 7:06 a.m. Despite reinventing the package I show up in several times over the years, I’m pretty much doing the very same thing I’ve been doing since about 2007. (I basically “package up” valuable human beings and present them to the marketplace in ways that generate prospects, customers, clients…

By the Ocean Sunny 74 Degrees 7:41 a.m. We sure do have a lot of stories about money. About what it means to have it. About what it means not to have it. About how much we want it. About how much we don’t want it. I wasn’t raised to want money. Because I was…
