So much to share this month- new Retirement Connection staff, tight deadlines, case manager events and more. We are very excited to introduce our two new Sales & Marketing Directors for the Puget Sound area: Sheryl Harmon and Tabitha White, both bring a wealth of experience and positive energy to our team. As the guide continues to grow, we saw a need to add an additional local person in the Puget Sound area. Keep an eye out for them at network meetings this month and give them a warm welcome! They look forward to working with you and offering support to our sponsors. We wish Dale all the best as he moves on to his next opportunity and would like to thank him for his sincere help and effort over the last three years.
The next annual Retirement Connection Guide for Puget Sound is wrapping up and we have less than 2 weeks to reserve ad space before printing. Please let me know of any corrections needed, additions you would like included, or changes to be noted. The next edition hits the streets in April and will not be updated for a full year. If you know of an office that is moving we really want to know ASAP. We have sent emails to each housing and home care agency to update their grid information and we have received a huge response already. We have also begun calling those that have not yet replied to ensure the accuracy of information. Additionally, this is also a great time to refer others into the guide as a sponsor; I would greatly appreciate any referrals you feel I should connect with for inclusion in the guide.

“Challenges are what make life interesting and overcoming them is what makes life meaningful.” - Joshua Marine
What if adversity isn't happening TO you, but instead it's happening FOR you? Every challenge can be a lesson you needed to learn, every rejection was actually protection, and you were given THIS mountain to show others that it can be moved? I don't believe everything happens for a reason, but I DO believe we can find meaning and purpose in everything that happens.
