It was such an amazing experience being featured on Andy's Personal Development   Podcast . Andy is also a speaker and coach based in " The Twin Island Republic of Trinidad & Tobago " regions. It's been pretty amazing to travel the globe through being a featured guest on podcasts based in Canada... just a few miles away in fact, and then off to England, New Zealand, Australia, and now, Trinidad. ...I guess I sidetracked a bit there... but I am truly excited about sharing this interview with you today.  Andy brought up some amazing awards we received and I got to relive the experiences those brought us in this discussion.  He delved into lots of deep topics, flowing easily from conscious business, to creating positive change, to having a positive mindset and back to business advice to close the interview. Andy Charles is definitely a gracious person who makes his guests feel really special :) You can find the #interview: On the Brummet Media Channel 's " ...

I absolutely adored this discussion on Nancy Guitar's Small Talk Youtube Channel -  This was such a great conversation about living green!  A topic I adore, and her condo building should be commended for the green and conscious policies it has in place 🙂 Kudos to them!!! Wouldn't it be great if the committee did end up allowing more green spaces on people's balconies! The steps they've taken are already inspiring... https://youtu.be/ZcHhNhKnzKk   🙂 I hope our listeners are as moved as I was by this discussion and if they want to find out more on this topic simply browse the previously published posts here on this blog.
