Whether you know me on a "personal-level" or not, I think it's fair to say that you know that I love being a part of positive experiences!
What began with one of my mom's co-workers asking if I would speak at her Insurance-Women's Group monthly meeting in March, resulted in my opportunity to be one of the Keynote-Speakers at their Annual-Conference. I was fortunate enough to be introduced to a lovely lady,
Kristin Camarra, who is President of Massachusetts Association of Insurance Women; it was she who asked if I would like to be a part of their Conference. Now, I wasn't expecting anything spectacularly out-of-the-ordinary about this speaking opportunity. But, then again, what's that they say: "...when you least expect it" !?
