@PokketCoach just got a huge update overnight 🎉 For those of you who’ve ever experienced me talking to you 1:1: or with your team, where I teach you new skills, or work with you to fix a problem, talking with Pokket now acts and sounds exactly like it would if you were talking

I have visions of you driving off with it, in that little red car, waving it above your head and cackling wildly 🤣

I'm working on Australia Day. It's been a sad date for me since 2014, when my then husband came home and announced our marriage was over (after nearly 35 years together) I cried every day for 2 years, and raged for 5 Then I pulled myself together and am living my best life!

62 today 🎉 Happier now than almost any time in my life before. Thankful for all the wonderful people who’ve supported me the last 10 years when I unexpectedly became a solo navigator. Hopeful I won’t be alone forever.
