A client left me a full box of pizza in the fridge. “Hey, we ordered two of them, and only ate one. Feel free to help yourself to the other one. We’re certainly not going to eat it.” Why?! Why would someone just offer me 8 slices of gourmet pizza? Is this a sign? Is…

Fully booked for September
Today, I finally started to abandon the depressive rut I was in, and got productive. Decided to organize my calendar for the next month and plan ahead my financials. Guess what? I got clients booked for 20 days, plus a 6-day trip to see my mom out of state. That’s 26 out of 30, or…
