Lessons From An Uncomfortable Chair

Posted on by Leigh Brown

My role model is Beverly Goldberg. Of all of the coffee mugs I have, it’s the most accurate gift I’ve received (of course, from my family).  Her kids call Beverly a ‘smother’ but honestly, she just personifies how strong the emotions are with those little people to whom you gave birth. Doesn’t matter how old […]
