What Are Your 5-Year Goals For Your Brand?
It's amazing how you can have such big goals, dreams and aspirations in your head but when it's time to put pen to paper you draw a blank. I have lofty goals. I want to transform the industry as we know it, give women in branding a voice and catapult our influence to the top of all industries.
Yet, breaking that down in yearly, then monthly, then weekly goals is a challenge. How do I start? What's realistic? What matters? Read the full article...
A Rant About My Nightmare Networking Experience

Getting to know my thoughts… on air travel
being raised in poverty and in the projects, I never thought I'd be one of the lucky "few" to ever take a ride on a plane. I thought riding in a plane was for rich people.

Back then you didn't need a ticket to go to the gate, you didn't need luggage or clearance... there was no high-tech security. You just went. Read the full article...

2012’s Favorite Moments
Well, the year is done. As I look back on 2012 I look back to a year filled with fun, growth, opportunity and connection. I think I've traveled more this year than I have since the years when I used to model. The year found me on a plane practically every month, beginning with my trip to Chicago in January for my mother's 80th Birthday. After that I went through a series of fun and not-so-fun moments, such as when I missed my *next* flight to Chicago that following week for Fabienne Fredrickson's tour stop. Read the full article...

Tips on Real Brand Value
Good morning!
This weekend has been a blast for me. My cousin Kim celebrated her
50th birthday, and that meant I partied waaaay longer than I’m used to
(I was up almost 24 hours!). One thing about Darren’s side of the family —

(With my cousin Kim celebrating her 50th - People flew in from across the U.S.)
I’m still recuperating and plan to do nothing today but kick my feet
up and relaxing. I didn’t relax too much though, for today’s article I give

has a link to get you some great photos for your website or blog.
Enjoy!
