Shhhh…my business is just sleeping.

It seems fitting that it’s International Women’s Day and my last post was on this day two years ago. SO much has happened and changed and I feel like my event planning business died. Don’t feel bad, it was quick and relatively painless. With an excess of quiet time these past couple of years, I’veContinue reading “Shhhh…my business is just sleeping.”
