Fall: A time of change and challenge
 As the weather becomes cooler and leaves start to turn, Butler Consulting challenges you to slow down, appreciate changes and reflect on your gifts. Fall can be a time for getting back to our routines, chaos and stress. Instead, take a walk, schedule breaks to refresh, start yoga and/or renew friendships. Our successful work with our clients has allowed Butler Consulting to feel renewed, affirmed, appreciative and effective by benefiting our organizations and communities served.
We dedicate this newsletter to those of you who seek new beginnings, hope and encouragement to continue your journey. May you be inspired to celebrate your accomplishments, try new ideas and help to make dreams come true. Thank you for your continued prayers, support, business and referrals!
