I have been dreaming about this project for a long... long time! Much longer than I can admit right now... because I was scared. I was scared to put myself out there. Have you ever felt that there was something you really wanted to do? Something you really wanted to share and you just couldn't? You allowed the negative thoughts in your brain convince you it wasn't worth it? Well, I know I have but now I'm taking a leap of faith and I just know it's the right thing to do.
See- I believe that we all want to be successful. Our definitions of success may be different but at the core of it- we want to the be the best version of ourselves we can be. That's what this podcast is all about. I want to talk to successful people. Hear their successes, their struggles, their ability to overcome and tips they would share. Maybe we will all be inspired and learn something from them that will help us be more successful. We have some AMAZING people in New York State... and I want to bring their stories to life for you.
My first interview is with 7th degree Taekwondo black belt Master Mechelle Smith. One of the most respected women in USA Taekwondo, Master Mechelle is inspiring, smart, tough... and kind. You should see her with her students at her studio in Schenectady, New York! She is the total package and I am honored to have her as my first interviewee.

I also want you to meet Paula from Glennpeter Jewelers who is organizing an amazing podcast launch party for me! See all those tiles behind us on the Wall of Love? Those are all the charities Glennpeter Jewelers has helped over the years. They are not only hosting my podcast party but allowing me to donate all the proceeds from silent auction items and drinks to the wonderful charity Maddie's Mark Foundation. I am forever grateful for their charity and support. With the money we raise at this event we will be able to give seriously ill children their "Best Day Ever".
Please get your tickets NOW- space is limited and we are planning a spectacular event. I'm so excited! I plan to tell you so much more in the weeks to come!
