Two Women who ROCKED the Next Steps this month!

WOW, can I just say WOW.....Today I am FLOORED by the steps that some of my friends have taken in their lives that I have to share. I talk about the Next Steps and this goes for all things in life so let me 'introduce' you to Courtenay and Keysha.

Courtenay is my best friend, has been since we were in high school. So, when I say best friend I mean she knows all in my life the good, bad and ugly and vice versa that comes along with being friends for over 22 years. She lives in the wonderful town of Franklin, TN where their education system is ranked #1 in the state. This is why she lives there for the education her daughter will receive. Lately however, there have been some rather odd political situations arising and she has taken the steps to see change happen. Literally in one day she had a change.org petition up and running that garnered more signatures to seek a resignation of a school board member than said member had received in the election. She had facts and figures behind her statements and she did it, went before the board this week with the petition. I single her out because she is fighting on a community level to make things better and doing the next steps that many of us only talk or gossip about in our communities. Way to go Coco!

Keysha.....we met as fellow direct sellers if you will and I don't even remember how but she has been to my Annual vendor each December. Keysha is one of those dynamo women....great connections, supportive family, amazing spirit and outgoing personality. On top of this one heck of a mom, friend and wife. She hasn't been so happy recently in her 'full time' job and literally just made the decision to QUIT her job....OH MAN know how happy this makes me?! The Next Steps, LLC was born out of my quitting a job as well and a lot of the same reasons apply so I feel we are 'sisters' in this. She has a great blog (PLEASE READ IT) about why she chose to do what she did and I couldn't be more excited. Way to go Keysha!

Pursue Your Happy is a trademark to my new adornable.u accessories line and it's so true we should all focus on happiness. Life is too short. The Today Show recently did an entire series: In the Pursuit of Happiness. I encourage you all to think about what it is that makes you happy and go for it!

Our family decided that my focus on the kids and what makes me happy business wise would be the focus. My husband has also gotten in on the act and found a new position back in an area that he is passionate about and I've never seen him more excited for the pursuit.

So, moving forward I am going to share with you my newest adventures and this will include my next steps in several journeys. If you have one I'd love to hear it along with follow and support you so share with me!
