While I could spend hours talking about my love for LiveFyre, this post is about Headway Themes. As a blogger I have…

Christian Hollingsworth is an online POWERHOUSE! He’s everywhere,doing everything with everybody. I love to watch him in action and I think you will too – thus he makes Frank’s #FollowFriday this week.

Making Decisions As A Blogger: Mary Says Go With Your Gut
I met Mary Goulet a while back when I was asked to proofread and review her book Go With Your Gut. From the initial meeting, I have found Mary, her story and her work fascinating. She has touch points in so many areas as a mother, writer, blogger, voice over artist, brand spokesperson, intuitive reader, speaker and…
Frank’s #FollowFriday: Yuvi Zalkow
This is the first line of Yuvi Zalkow’s Untitled post about the recent passing of Steve Jobs: I didn’t know shit about the man. Plus, I was late to the party. I didn’t even start paying attention to Steve and Apple until a few years ago. I’m going to rework it for my #FollowFriday for…

Get Your Butt Over Here and Help Me Tame This Gremlin!
We’ve talked a bit about productivity and focus around here lately. By the looks of it, a good amount of us struggle with both. As my friend Michael Schechter points out, we often squiggle from chaos to clarity and, at times, you have to lean in in order to move forward. I think he’s right, even though by…
Frank’s #FollowFriday: Becky McCray
I’m trying to remember a time when I didn’t know of Becky on Twitter. Nope, I think I have always followed her. Go follow her at @BeckyMcCray and come on back. To say that Becky wears many hats is to sell her short. >>She’s a rancher tending to 880 acres in rural Oklahoma. >>She’s…
