March 2013 – My first mention in a book!

peronsalb One of the people I admire the most professionally is Jennifer Holloway. I consider her my mentor(though we have never spoken for more than an email after that one time in Glasgow where she delivered a talk). I was honored that she liked my twitter description enough to include it in her book. She has a way with words and her book will make you look at yourself in a whole new light!

The change they have experienced is amazing. I wanted to inspire them but ended up being inspired by them!  Here are some pictures from the day
