My Month of Firsts Another month of silence in my blog. But honestly, I’m OK with it this time. I had such a big month in March as it will now be known as my Month of Firsts. I launched my very first online course. And let me say, that was an experience no one … Continue reading

Captain’s Log, Star Date 2000 and Something

This Week I feel like I’ve been on a roller coaster this week. It’s been awhile since I’ve experienced so many up and down emotions like I’ve had these past seven days.
