It's been almost five years since I last wrote a blog post for this site. During that time, the world has become a completely different place, and many of us have become completely different people. We've experienced a major shifts, met knew people and experienced new things - not the least of which being the pandemic.
My absence from this site, is not indicative of my absence from the Internet. In fact, most of my focus these past few years have been on my companies, SilverBox Institute and ThreeSocks Media. But those of you who are playing at home, I am beginning a podcast and I now have a Patreon account. I'll tell you more about those later. For now, let me update you on where I've been these past few years:

But those of you who are playing at home, I am beginning a podcast and I now have a Patreon account. I'll tell you more about those later. For now, let me update you on where I've been these past few years:
- Around the time that I wrote my last blog post here, I met an old friend. We embarked on several projects, and I learned an immense amount about business. (One specific lesson: Get everything in writing, and trust NO ONE. Now, I'm just talking about in business, but I left my complete trust blind me to the intentions of this friend and his father. They bullied me, used me, and gaslighted me as they drained my finances.
- I got COVID, twice! The first time was the worst. I was sick and in bed with a high fever for almost two weeks, and then it took me another two weeks to fully recover. The second time, I was tired, but still able to function. My sympathies to those of you who were hit far worse and to those of you who lost loved ones. I lost two colleagues.
- My father passed away. He died in early 2020 at the age of 94. I miss him every single day.
- I've been hired to create more audio books and done a few more voice over jobs. Thank you to all of the wonderful people who worked with me on those projects!
- I made many new business relationships that continue to thrive..
- Most recently (Sept. 2022), I spoke at the annual conference of the National Association of Women in Communications. It was a wonderful experience, and if you are unfamiliar with AWC, please do look them up. They are a fabulous group.
