Backstory Behind Stephanie and Guest
I met Maggie through the Relational Center. Seconds after meeting her, I knew a power force entered into the room. She has real life experience, passions and knowledge. Her voice is powerful and matched with pro-listening skills. I know when Maggie is the room and/or conversation, we will get the heart of problem and opportunity for the solution much faster. – Stephanie Michele

The Social Challenge for the Week: Meaningful Conversation Invitation
Extend an invitation for conversation to someone where the entire purpose is connection. Where there is the most opportunity for meaningful conversation could be with someone you see every day and take for granted that you know who they are and what they are going through. When you sit down for conversation ask, “What has your attention right now?”
