    Nailah Blades, you make me smile! I love your approach. Roll with the punches, transition when it feels right, and trust your gut. Great advice.

    By far my favorite nugget from this interview though was your suggestion to “calendar freedom”. As soon as I hit submit on this comment I am pulling up google calendar to find time to give myself a breather. 😉
