New Episode

It has been a few weeks, this episode was supposed to come out two weeks ago if I'm being completely honest. Sometimes life happens and you have to roll with it or get run over by it. I'd like to think I've stayed just ahead of getting run over by it (just barely). Next episode will be in two weeks, and its a good one! I know its a good one because its already recorded and I can't wait for yall to hear it.

New Year for The Professional Dependa

What do you hope to accomplish this year? Every year in January we are given the opportunity to shape how that year will go for us. Will our year be good? Will it be crap? A very large part of your outlook on the year will depend on you and how you decide to approach it. This year I am focusing on being more creative, be OK with being more creative. Focusing on making better content, improving my photography and videography skills, and writing my book. The other things I am focusing on is being kinder, I'd like to think I'm already a nice person, but leading with kindness is something I can always work on.
