Hey girl! Only about a month ago in late February, I went through the most horrifying experience. One so bad, it left me vomiting uncontrollably on the floor of my office at work and being whisked away in an ambulance to the Emergency Room. I’m talking about a severe migraine attack.

Hey girl! Sometimes the lessons or guidance we need in life aren't always focused on a specific area — be it business or personal.
