Excerpt from my Book: Why Not Me

“Look within you, re-connect with that moment, or create new ones. Go back to that place that delivered on a promise for you, a place that allowed you to grow and develop. Find out what it is, connect those dots, recreate those moments and smile. We are all at our best when we smile."

Excerpt from: Why Not Me

“Your team is behind you and they are in place, so don’t isolate yourself. If you choose to put up walls, they will isolate you from the great life that awaits you. Get rid of the fear of making a mistake; remember it takes a lifetime to become all that you are meant to be.”
