I recently attended a Zero Proof Collective event in Minneapolis. The Collective was created by four women – Jen Gilhoi, Cate Faulkner, Debi McConnell, Norma Wolk -- who envision and want to co-create more non-alcoholic beverage options and healthier social spaces for adults to experience clarity, connections, and community.
About 3 1/2 years ago, I hosted a vision board brunch on a snowy, December Saturday morning for the female colleagues that I worked with. We spent that morning brunching, bonding, and creating vision boards that would manifest our respective goals and dreams.

The concept of home has been on my mind lately, but let's talk HOUSES for a minute. I read a stat the other day, which indicated that there are more real estate agents in the U.S. than houses for sale!
