10 Year Anniversary
In 2009 Jennifer Carey did her first Susan G Komen 3 Day Walk for the cure as a way to support her Mom surviving breast cancer. Hitting up all her friends and family for donations went well, but it was a lot of work. Jennifer asked her co-worker, Paul Self, if he thought we could […]

Put Yourself in the Driver’s Seat: Healthy Eating, Exercise, and Mindfulness
