Hello, dear women;
Could I have been any more nervous, and survive? I don’t think so. Despite all my second guessing, I am glad to have had you all join me today for our Launch event: a conversation about “expansion” with Karen Cappello. I loved the exercise Karen had us do: pick a person you admire [...]

I was interested in the concept, and would really like to see more licensed professionals offering this [...]
