If you're like me...it's time to DO something about that. After some thinking and re-reading a blog I wrote  Walk out your calling//Chase your dreams  it's had me thinking a lot. It's opened up conversations with friends and has allowed us to share our hearts with each other about this topic. Without getting in the medical and political aspect of it, the Great Quarantine of 2020 has forced us all to park ourselves at home for so long. Being in real-life timeout opened my eyes to many things. So many of us have been SO busy that we didn't even see how far down the rabbit hole we were. And when the world seemingly stood still for weeks on end I decided...and you probably did too... It's time for a change... But what? How? When?  Well here are my thoughts..
