When I’m in a room and all eyes are on me and you can hear a pin drop because people are listening to every word that I say, it makes me realize how much value comes from my experience and how much value I want to provide in their lives. Then, they can return the favor to someone else. There’s a domino effect of positivity.  When people see themselves within you, they see the light within. I want to be that light and connector.
