Long vests – just for the fun of it!
It’s a buttoned classic. It’s a drapey sweater. It’s a sleeveless coat. The long vest is just what the fashion plate needs to give pants, pencil skirts or jeans some fancy flair. Think of it as an accessory…

The birth of sHOe, sHOpping, cHOcolate, SoHO, HOme, alcoHOl
Okay, so what do t-shirts and pillows have to do with this? While on the phone with the counsellor, I was doodling. For some reason I can’t explain, I wrote the word “shoe.” Then I colored in the “ho.” Next, I wrote the word “shopping” and colored in the “ho.” Pretty soon I had shoe, shopping, chocolate, soho. Then the light bulb moment; I wrote the word alcohol. And there it was “ho.” …

Kerry’s story
Turning a sports broadcasting career into the art of giving.
In business, the term “road warrior” refers to someone who spends enormous amounts of time traveling for work. That’s an apt description of my life before marriage and kids. I’ve worked in broadcasting throughout my career, starting in sportscasting which had me on the run between the Midwest to the West Coast covering both collegiate and major league baseball, hockey and football. But I always had a passion for community service and tried to fit in charity work whenever a window of time opened up.

My dad was the only survivor among his family of ten from the Assyrian (known to many as the Armenian) genocide. It started in Turkey in 1915 during World War 1 and eventually resulted in the loss of approximately 1.2 million people.
Theresa’s Story
You are still marketable after staying home for 10 years…
Before twins, my career was in the pharmaceutical industry where I served as a District Sales Manager. I led a team of 10, covering a 4-state region, enjoying the challenges and perks of a successful career. The decision to have a family was something my husband and I agreed we wanted. At 40, I had twins—a girl and a boy. Being Mommy to two beautiful and healthy babies was such a blessing. You can prepare all you want for their arrival, but the reality was, life as I knew it was changed forever…
