In The Writer’s Chair: Big Ideas Using Few Words

My New Year’s Resolution – Listen to Hank
When I think back to a year ago — one year ago exactly — I was in a similar, but distinctly different place in the world. I was geared up, feeling good, had lots of positive mojo going, and beyond work and the family, I knew that 2013 was going to be a huge year […]
