I met Abbie Fink in Naples (Florida, not Italy), gosh, four years ago?
We were there for Counselors Academy and I had flown down a day early to help my co-chair Ben Wheatley with whatever committee we were working on at the time. But, that first night, he had an executive committee dinner and I was stuck, alone, in the hotel.
He suggested I call Abbie to see if she wanted to have dinner with me.
Now, for those of you who know me, you know I’m an introvert. So for me to call a stranger, in her hotel room, and ask her to dinner was HUGE for me.
I am so glad I did. (more…)
