I’ve started a live-stream Optimized YOU! series! The sessions will take place at the LivingBluPrints community Facebook page and of course, I will also share the video here.
Most weeks we’ll try to do Thursday nights, but there will be some shifting due to my travel schedule and Thanksgiving.
- This week – session ZERO (10/10 already recorded – stay tuned for post)
- Next week – session ONE Wednesday, Oct 16th, 7:30
- session TWO to be announced next week
All streams will be view-able as replays, but I would love to have folks on live. Live attendance changes the energy of the group (and my delivery!)
Let me know what questions I can answer!!
