In our #networking cluttered world we need to learn how to choose our events carefully. First and foremost, and besides wanting to connect and build relationships, choose events that are aligned with your career/business goals. Second of all choose events in which you feel that you take away something of value (knowledge). #Networking #LearningIsPower

Tuesday arrives with a promise of great weather before the sweltering temps of Summer hit us in Washington D.C. Today I will be heading to Winchester to network with other business owners and I will be sharing with them about copyright and trademark infringements, how to protect our brands and content and how to avoid getting in trouble as well. I will come back live with the cliff notes later today and share them with you, so stay tuned 🌷 Have a great day!

Wishing you a successful week! Make wise decisions and develop strategies on how you want this week to pan out. Remember that if we pay attention to the details now, we will see great rewards later.

Are you thinking of starting a new business? Being a small business owner or entrepreneur is not an easy task. We must explore the prospects of starting a new company; undertake risks, be in charge of the introduction of innovations, coordination, administration and control of business and providing effective leadership in all aspects of business. And this is just the tip of the iceberg. This takes a lot of work. But it can be most gratifying as well (and not only monetarily.)
I suggest you interview various business owners in your industry or similar and ask a lot of questions so you have an idea of what you are really getting into. And take notes!!! This is one of the best ways to find out the reality of what it takes to grow a business!🙋🏻‍♀️ #GoodLuck

#MUSTWATCH #RESILIENCE
Parents do yourself a favor and make the time to watch this film. “THE CHILD MAY NOT REMEMBER, BUT THE BODY REMEMBERS."
Researchers have recently discovered a dangerous biological syndrome caused by abuse and neglect during childhood. As the new documentary Resilience reveals, toxic stress can trigger hormones that wreak havoc on the brains and bodies of children, putting them at a greater risk for disease, homelessness, prison time, and early death. While the broader impacts of poverty worsen the risk, no segment of society is immune.
Resilience, however, also chronicles the dawn of a movement that is determined to fight back. Trailblazers in pediatrics, education, and social welfare are using cutting-edge science and field-tested therapies to protect children from the insidious effects of toxic stress—and the dark legacy of a childhood that no child would choose.

Zero sugar added desserts! This is #epic! #HappySunday

I can't believe this is even possible... why didn't I always bake this way????
**
Almost all of our desserts rely on high sugar and tons and tons of carb to taste good.

This book is a bit different... each dessert is low in carbs and has zero sugar added (no artificial nonsense either).

It brings me so much joy as a parent to be able to make these desserts. They're super healthy - no sugar, low carbs and full of healthy fats and protein.

With most recipes coming in at under 15 minutes, it's easy to make these with time to spare.

The no-bake recipes are perfect for my eldest daughter to help make!

It’s Friyay! How amazing. We made it through the week. Time to #Smile 🤗

Good morning! I practice #Gratitude every morning as I rise. Why? Because it’s impossible not to stay motivated throughout the day when you’re feeling positive and really focusing on it. Just pay special attention on how you are talking to yourself... #HaveAGreatSaturday

“Good manners are priceless.” Good manners should be seen as the “common ground” where we all can relate. It is also a “common language” that we should all learn how to speak. It seems people care less about protocol and civility... but if we all treat each other with respect and great communication there would be no war. Can't they get it? #Manners #GoldenRule #Respect

Good morning! You can be shy, and be likeable. You can be an introvert and be likeable. You can be an extrovert and be likeable. But the key is that with effort and awareness, we can all be a little bit better at it. Here is where good manners will help you and open doors throughout your entire life. #TheLikeabilityFactor #ComeLearnWithUs

Nobody promised you a rose garden when you decided to go into business... sometimes things may not go the way intended, and when this happens you need to surround yourself by a solid group of professionals to advise and see you through the good and the not so good.
Be diligent when you choose who becomes part of that intimate circle of trust or advisory board. You want to make sure they are seasoned and refined enough to speak truth with honesty, respect and kindness. That their true intentions is to lift you up when situations fail, and are presto to offer counsel to remedy situations and turn them around in a favorable way.
Sadly, not everyone can fit this bill... it needs to be someone that besides possessing leadership skills is a class act and truly understands what soft skills are about. #BeDiligent
