Written by blog contributor, Kellie Knapp. What does that word mean to you? Have you experienced it? Are you in the middle of persevering right now? I have always known what perseverance meant.

With the holidays, there can be a lot of madness. Family cooking, celebrating, travel, and so much more. It's the time of year when it's not about you. It's about the ones we love and being a little more selfless. But, take a minute. Take a moment of silence. For you. We all need a moment to ...
Written by blog contributor, Daniela Forte. As I close out this year, so many thoughts come to mind. My first thought, is this year really over?
