  • Levels & Stages of Success

    Robb Hill, Founder/President, R Hill Enterprises Inc

    Life is lived on levels and arrived at in stages, at every new level you come to there is a stage that you must go through or you will remain where you are currently. The different levels in life are easy to see however, comfort and fear keep us from venturing out of our comfort zone. For me that comfort zone was drugs and alcohol. For 18 years that was my focus. Along with this line of thinking came consequences. You see, "we pay the highest price for the lowest level of living,". My eyes were opened March 1, 1993. I realized that I was so much more than what I had become. I quit using drugs and alcohol which left a void in my life. There was a "missing piece" that I had to find. The rest of the story will be continued at the meeting/event. MORE >

  • You don’t have to be beaten black and blue to be a victim of Domestic Violence!

    Quanna Brown, Speak up Somebody Listening

    Domestic violence is a complex issue that can manifest in various forms, often leaving victims unaware of their situation. Personally, I have endured years of physical, mental, emotional, verbal, sexual, and financial abuse from those who were supposed to care for me. Many fail to recognize non-physical forms of abuse, assuming that visible bruises are the only indicator. It is crucial to educate everyone, regardless of age, gender, or relationship status, about the different facets of domestic violence. Despite the hardships I have faced, I refuse to let my past define me. I am a survivor, a warrior, and I am determined to share my truth and my story with others. MORE >
