The time has come. Please join me, the Prince William Living staff and our partners ACTS at a panel discussion on domestic abuse.

Hylton Performing Arts Center

Merchant Hall

10900 University Blvd

Manassas, Va 20109

Representatives from ACTS, the mental health community, the non-profit community and Prince William County Police will be our speakers. The panel will discuss how domestic abuse happens, why it happens, who it happens to, how you can recognize it and what you can do about it.

We ask that you RSVP, however if you are currently in an abusive relationship, you do NOT need to register, just come. Representatives from several non-profit organizations will be on hand with information on receiving help and volunteer opportunities.

Do you know what domestic abuse looks like? Many do not. I am asking as a personal favor that you to attend this forum. Let's stand together for those that do not have a voice.

This forum is not only for those in an abusive relationship, it's also for those who may know someone in an abusive relationship and for those who just want to help!

It's really ok to take a break

Sometimes when you're not motivated it's because your literraly burnt out. And that's ok. When you've been doing too much for too long, it's ok to take a break. However, before you start that break, write down some of the things you're going to do after the break.. This helps to keep the things you want to do at the top of your mind without feeling guilty that you're taking a break. So what do I mean by taking a break? It can be ... in any form you desire and/or can afford. We'd all love our break to be a long vacation to someplace we really want to go, but it can be as simple as taking a walk or even spending an entire weekend binge-watching your favorite shows. Just make sure it's a plan and that you know when you've had you're break, you're going to start on that "thing" you've been putting off. MW Copyright 2017

Re-evaluating Social Media in my life

What is the purpose of social media in your life? This is the question I've been pondering for a while now. What do each of these outlets bring to me, give to me, or help me with?

I believe that's true in some businesses - especially if you're selling a product like t shirts, jewelry, weight loss plans, or other tangible items. But, I'm not sure which really help in the service and intangible industries. With that said, I'm an insurance agent. I sell a piece of paper that gives you piece of mind and aggravation because you are obligated to buy it. Is anyone really interested in reading blogs or articles about insurance? Even insurance humor is mainly funny to insurance people. So where does that leave me with my posts? I have used it in a mostly pers...

The Ins and Outs of Networking

I thought I'd talk about networking for those who are just starting out in their networking journey. And maybe, just maybe, someone who's a pro, will learn something or get a new idea. When you start out on your journey of networking, you're not sure what you're going to find. If you're like me, you're a little intimidated by everyone. They all seem so put together, so confident. It feels like everyone knows everyone else and you don't know anyone! You might sit there thinking "What the heck am I doing here?" But guess what? What you're feeling is 100% normal. And guess what else? We all felt the same way when we started networking. Because I'm one of those people who remembers feeling that way, I make it a point to go out of my way to talk to newbies, show them around, introduce them to others, give them networking advice. It's funny because the very first networking group I ever attended is the one that I'm currently the ...
