Hello and welcome to another episode. When we talk about being brave, a few things come up: pictures of women like Rosa Parks, or the mom down the street that is battling breast cancer. Or the time your kid gave a speech, even though she was petrified.

Sometimes with God size dreams were forced into positions that make us want to wilt and hope it never comes around again, whether it's a presentation, a speech, a networking event or even a controversial Facebook post.

Hello and welcome to another episode. Coronavirus was really what many called the divine pause, or resets. It reminded me a lot of the Psalms when David would use the word Selah in his passages. This was a musical term that means to pause, stop and contemplate, and almost every one of us did.
