From our family to yours....WE WILL persevere

HELLO RAISE YOUR GLASS FAMILY. My, how I miss seeing friendly faces gathered in celebration of life. Until we can gather again in person, I will hold on to the memories from our UNITY Black History Month event.

"Times are a changin'" and we are in the midst of situations that most of us have never experienced. Our family and friends are hurting as a result of job layoffs and we are worried and fearful about what is to come over the next few weeks and months. I have faith that "this too shall pass". We have been through a lot in our lifetimes and we have always persevered; this is no different.

WE WILL persevere and we will grow from what we are experiencing today. Please stay safe and do the best you can to protect yourself and your circle of influence. I know that sometimes we have no choice but to go to work and "make the donuts" so please take extra precautions. Monitor changes on a daily basis, like I am doing, and make the decisions that are best for you and for others. Together, we will come out of this experience an even more resilient society and stronger than ever.

All of that being said, we will reschedule our UNITY Women's History Month celebration, once we have the all clear to move forward. RYG,
Women on the Rise Orlando and our presenting sponsor, FORD, are committed to being your best partner and creating sustainable and organic connection opportunities for everyone... when the time is right.

Until then... take precautions, stay safe and surround yourself with HAPPY and with LOVE... namaste

I wish I could say that they are lying about the gym clothes, but alas, they are not... I do LOVE to be comfy instead of all dolled up and looking fancy. I'm so lucky that they love me either way. #ClientsBecomeFamily #Loveatfirstsite

CONGRATULATION TO MY BUYER AND SELLER...

Although you are not in the real estate industry and Brian Buffini is a real estate coach, I do think you can find value in listing to this podcast. Brian interviews the chief economist from the National Association of Realtors and he breaks down how he thinks the "recession" will impact the real estate industry.

Homeowners can feel safe knowing that their real estate investments are safe from the effects of the stock market.
