What Makes This Great

I’ve been on hiatus from Soul Strings for a little over a week, soaking in the mountain air in Tennessee alongside my family. It was sweet, refreshing, and filled to the brim with rest. I didn’t think about our business, this blog, or much of anything other than when we were going to go swimmingContinue reading “What Makes This Great”

The Next Five Years

“What’s your goal? Your game plan? Where do you want to see yourself in the next five years?” I used to hate these questions.
