I am so lucky to have the support of my friends and family with this new venture. At first I thought they would think I was crazy. On the contrary, they are saying they are proud of me and congratualting me! That really makes me feel happy and loved!! The biggest part of my business that I LOVED was the people. I am even more excited because my BEST friend and former LPer is joining today!!!! I am SO excited! We can do this again. I know we can!!

A lot of people are asking why I joined Close To My Heart ( CTMH). Are you ready? It’s a LONG list! Some may seem silly, but they are BIG to me!
