Thomas’ daughter died as a baby, which brought him and his family to their knees. He and his spouse knew they had a moment of choice. They decided that the victim (why me) mentality would not serve them. Instead, they chose the ‘what can I learn’ from this mindset. As a result, they found love and gratitude in life’s tough situations. Thomas shares these powerful nuggets of life wisdom:
– life happens for us, not to us
– speak in gratitude
– what we focus on, expands
– response to events determines outcomes
– we control 100% of our response
– people tend to act how you speak to them
– change your language to change your results
– there cannot be contention when love is expressed
– our words have the power to turn the night to day
– find the good in people and speak to them as such
– be conscious of what you tell yourself
– everything works out for your good

Laurel was studying to become an attorney, but realized that she didn’t enjoy it. Then, out of the blue, she had to put things on hold to run her father’s furniture company, as he was fighting cancer. She taught herself how to run his company through the school of hard knocks. Fortunately, her father survived the cancer. After leaving her father’s business, she discovered that marketing resonated with her, as she found it to be collaborative, creative and problem solving. Today, she helps organizations and businesses to ‘elevate’ their brands through her successful marketing services. She shares these powerful nuggets of life wisdom:

– ask for help
– surround yourself with a trusted circle, such as an advisory board
