I’ve “pivoted” as a model in the fashion world and have pivoted in my career multiple times. Now is the time to re-think or pivot with our brands and begin at ground level... Zero ... Now is the time for a fresh NEXT. It’s experiencing your worst nightmare (being confined at home for months) emerging, not just surviving, but thriving. Possibility thinking shows up on a board call recently.

And, these fellow humans emerge and through “pivoting” ready to debut in the new normal. My prayer is GOD will bless these changes to HIS glory and we all will feel this blessing, as we continue to PIVOT.
