Imagine being on death row and a few days away from your demise.
Then, at the last moment, you get a reprieve.
Would you do anything differently with your life? Would you see it as an opportunity to fulfill some of those goals and dreams that have lingered in the back of your mind for years?
That’s what happened to Alex.
Alex is a thirty pound bunny who was biding his time in a California slaughterhouse. Magically, he was rescued.
Now he’s living a life that no rabbit – and few humans – can dream about.
He’s a working “therapy bunny” who attends over 200 events per year.
People love him wherever he goes.
He travels in style, in an electric. mini-Mercedes SLK.
He has 26,000 followers on Instagram, 34,000 on Tik Tok, and some of his latest videos clocked over a million views.
Not bad, considering he was almost a pot of rabbit stew.
Of course, Alex had guidance and someone charting his course for him.
Yes, even bunnies need a plan.
If you’re ready to make some changes, set and reach some goals and dreams, but don’t know where to start, here’s your chance to create a plan to move your life forward.
The next “Envisioning Possibilities” workshop is scheduled for March 9th.
Whether your goal is:
– Financial Freedom
– Rewarding Relationships
– Better Health
– Professional Growth
this course will help you create a recipe to follow, a strategy for success.
And fricassee will not be on any of the menus.

How to Answer “Tricky” Questions
When you stay calm, clarify with repetition, and bridge back to your core ideas, you guide the dialogue rather than chase it. The result? You come across as thoughtful, credible, and persuasive exactly the qualities clients and colleagues remember.
How Humor Can Lighten the Room
A smile can make your design pitch twice as memorable. Humor, when done right, isn’t about being a comedian it’s about being human. A little laughter reminds everyone that design is supposed to bring joy, not stress. So the next time you walk into a presentation, bring your sense of humor along with your fabric swatches. You’ll leave behind not only a beautiful concept but also a positive impression.
Creating Connection: The overlooked power of eye contact
Eye contact is the designer’s secret to presence. It’s what transforms a presentation from mechanical to magnetic. Slides may show your ideas, but your eyes show your confidence and that’s what clients and audiences remember most.
Why Every Designer Should Practice Their Speech
In design, presentation is persuasion. When you practice speaking as much as sketching, you build trust, authority, and excitement around your ideas. A polished pitch can make the difference between a “maybe” and a “let’s do it.” Remember your voice is part of your professional toolkit. Use it well, and let it sell your vision as powerfully as your designs do.
NETWORKING …. WHAT HAPPENS AFTER
Networking is more about follow-up than first impressions.
Sound as Good as You Look
Trade shows can showcase your talent and brand but shouldn’t cost you your voice.
