A Month of Interviews!

It is exciting to have had the opportunity to be on several podcasts this month and write an article for a magazine. When I think back to when I first started to where I am now, I am deeply honored. Thank you for your dedicated support because, without you, I would not be able to continue to grow in this field. The interviews, articles, and letters from you let me know I am where I am supposed to be in this chapter of my life. I hope you enjoy this newsletter and all the links to the interviews and articles. Check out the News regarding my next book and my new awards.

Happy Father's Day!

Last month we celebrated our moms, and now it is time to celebrate the men in our life. I am blessed to have had a loving, hard-working dad George Mural Floyd was a self-made man, as most depression and WWII vets are. he showed us that it takes a can-do attitude, patience, willingness to learn, and, most importantly, Faith that God will provide. My children will tell you their dad is the best! I could write a book about all of his qualities. My kiddos are very lucky to have him for their dad.
