“Everything negative – pressure, challenges – are all opportunities for me to rise.” – Kobe Bryant
The Take Action Today segment of the show will help you turn your biggest challenges into opportunities.
In today’s show, I provide coaching to Kathy, a young civil engineer from Florida who specializes in the field of water and wastewater. She graduated with an undergraduate degree in 2003.
