When I turned 40, I began to reflect on what I’ve learned over the years and what I’ve accomplished along the way. I’ve stepped out of my comfort zone -- moving to Arkansas with only what I could pack into my car -- and I’ve made time to enjoy life. But, there were a few things I would have done differently if I had someone to give me a little guidance.
