No stopping allowed! Maybe you found a job--full- or part-time. Maybe you're independent and got your first client or two. Maybe you're starting a business. This is no time to relax. This group will help you manage the challenges and

(Financial Independence, Retire Early 'or Eventually')
There is a hack for every single one of life's major expenses. The FIRE movement is about maximizing your savings rate by making smart spending decisions and investing the savings. The goal is to accumulate assets that produce enough passive income to provide for your living expenses. At that point you no longer need to work for money, you can let your money work for you. FIRE promotes a lifestyle that provides financial independence, flexibility, and balance.
The Legacy Speakers Toastmasters Group
Still on the drawing board--we want to launch our very own Toastmasters Group by the end of 2019. Let's us know if you are interested. Contact

This Week's Drive-Time Podcast!
The desire to find our tribe is universal. We like to know who we are and where we belong. This fascination has led to a thriving industry built on the marketing and sale of personality tests. These tests offer individuals - and, increasingly, employers - quick and easy insights that can be used to make some of life's biggest decisions. But most fail to stand up to scientific scrutiny. This week, we revisit our 2017 episode about the world of personality testing, and explore the many different ways we assess personality and potential - from the Chinese zodiac to Harry Potter houses to the Myers-Briggs test.
Enjoy, learn, be amazed, and be inspired!
