We’ve spent this month saying goodbye to this venue, but don’t worry, Gwen and I aren’t going away! Here is some of what the future holds for me, Kellie. Remember to pin or bookmark this post so you can find the links later on.
Kellie’s Favorite Insights from Gwen
After reading Gwen’s post from Thursday, I’m feeling very warm and fuzzy inside. One of the hard parts about our business ventures ending in an official way is that Gwen and I will not have scheduled time to talk every week, and that will be a loss to me. She really is the yin to […]

Gwen and I have been thinking a lot lately about both our past and our future. Here is a thumbnail sketch of the past:
