Whether you run your own business or work in someone else’s company, you are required to keep your clients’ privacy.

As your daughter grows older and develops a relationship with a steady partner, the feeling of losing control grows too. Being the mother of a young woman (OMG, she is 20!), I see a lot of value in teaching teenage girls the difference between healthy and unhealthy relationships.

It was still raining heavily and the thought of our work going down the drain was unbearable.

My Psychic Mom (4)

When someone tells you weird things, you think they are “psycho” or “mental”, but if you later find out what they told you was true, then you start questioning your “psycho” theory and allowing for the possibility there might be something there.
