Today is Valentine’s Day, and I pondered over whether or not to write about it—mainly because I didn’t think I had anything new to say. How many times do I need to remind you and me to love ourselves regardless o […]

Season three of the podcast is here, and we are kicking things off with my friend Dr. Lisa Witzig. In this episode, we dive into the gaps that exist within corporate communications, the importance of sharing our […]
