Why 50 ROCKS?
4
This unique keynote and coaching program grew out of
my blog series. It was inspired by my unique 50th
birthday gift from my BFF: a box filled with 50 gold-
painted rocks, each depicting a special nugget about
me and just how much “50 ROCKS.” It's my honor to
share life lessons for personal and business success with
programs that include journal workshops, webinars,
private Facebook group, etc. Here are a few of them:
Introduction: 50 ROCKS
Never Give Up/Fail Forward
Thanks, Mom! (Salute to influential women)

The BOOMERANG effect of Generosity
Life is too short NOT to LAUGH OUT LOUD
