It’s been such a blessing to be able to tell mine, and have it impact so many people in such a positive way!”
After being asked by numerous people how she went from a stay-at-home mom to a successful entrepreneur, she decided to put her philosophy in a book. “My core philosophy for living is this: Show Up, Be Bold, Play Big.
