As we close out 2014, I am excited and hopeful for the new year. To call this past year a learning experience would be a massive understatement. Here's what I mean:

- I sold my business to focus more on design and teaching

- I watched that business then fold less than 1 year after selling it

- Some old business relationships faded, others reignited at the end of this year

- New clients and friends have already been made and I could not be more grateful

- I have helped 3 new businesses launch by leading their branding

- I have launched a new business (this one)

- my family is healthy, happy and loved

Whatever is in store for 2015, I gladly welcome it. If it is tough, I now know what tough is. But I believe it will be amazing and prosperous. I believe with my faith, my family, and the amazing people that trust me to work with them, it is bound to be incredible.

Here's to a new year, and new beginning.
