… pick up some good vibes in the new year! You walk down the hall and bristle when you pass that guy from production. Next, you walk into an office and feel unsettled. Then you see Shannon in the break room and your face lights up anticipating a real connection with a positive person.…
It’s 2019. Yay! I just sighed out a deep exhale. 2018 was a physically, emotionally and spiritually challenging year for me. Maybe for you too. It’s done. So glad. I look forward with gratitude. I look forward with joy. I look forward with curiosity. How can we, as positive…
