The only way to ever finish anything is to actually start.  Doesn’t matter where you start, just as long as you start.  Talking about it is easy!  Doing it is a completely different story. That takes action!  It takes pushing through the procrastination, fear, self-judgment, doubt, the excuses and everything in between.  If you’re ready to get those passionate ideas out of your head and turn them into something tangible, then stop talking about it and start doing it!  Join us on 7/27 and turn your words into your world.
