Get It Right Today, Not Tomorrow
Do your employees and leaders too often operate in Survival Mode, putting out fires and putting off until tomorrow what should be done today? This program powerfully dispels the notion that there will always be a tomorrow in which we can finish today’s unfinished business and moves individuals to work and live with intentionality.

Safety: Don’t Count on 2nd Chances
Can too much experience be a bad thing? Absolutely…if it leads to complacency. The highly experienced pilots of Flight 965 were lulled into a false sense of security that led to the deaths of 160 people. Mercedes’ one-of-a-kind safety presentation uses the factual account of the crash of Flight 965 as an anchor to drive home the dangers of complacency and the importance of situational awareness.

A great way to present safety from a unique perspective. It was very true to life.
, Staci Cannady, HR Manager and VPPPA Safety Conference Attendee
You were the talk of the Convention. You held our members in rapt attention. I enjoyed your video, but it did not do you justice! Your presentation is so much more powerful.
, Susan Logan, Operations Director
[Your presentation] was amazing, and the turnout was incredible. It was standing room only, which has never happened before. The feedback on the survey was very positive.
, Kim Ortiz, Professional Development Program Coordinator
She was so real – her message was cross-generational and inspirational.
, Deanna Quintanilla, AG Edwards Consultant and NLBWA Member
Words cannot describe how much your speech touched my heart. I have seen many inspirational speakers in my lifetime, but I have never been as moved as I was last night. It would be fair to say that Zig Ziglar and Tony Robbins have some competition. This world needs more people like you.

What habits, what people, what issues would you like to say goodbye to today?
I don’t appreciate Instagram’s tone when she tells me “You’re all caught up for the day.” ... might as well be saying “you’ve seen enough today, go do something productive” 🤣
A lot of you have no clue what your mom’s taste is and are buying random merchandise on sale just to give her something for Mother’s Day and it shows

If I ever would have had a daughter, I hope she would have been just like this!
I believe she’s might be autistic, kinda makes you laugh her gestures but autism isn’t humorous. It does make you realize how she’s happy in her world.
She’s living her best life ❤️
Your dance moves written all over this❤️
I saw this the other day and was dying laughing
To the @NWMSU graduation class of 2005, I was honored to be the Bearcat Commencement Speaker. But I’m extremely thankful Robert F. Smith from Morehouse College didn’t go before me 😂. He announced he’d pay off ALL the graduation class’s student debt. I could never one-up that. Wow! So much goodness in this world! #ThePowerOfOne
God bless his heart ❤️
Wow, how awesome is that!!!
I'll let you buy me a drink, Mercedes Ramirez Johnson, if it'll make you feel better.
If we focus on everything we have wrong in our lives, we give them power and make them bigger. But if we shift our mindset to focus on all the little things that are good, they add up and grow bigger by your mindfulness about them. The grass will always be greener where you water it so stick with the good stuff!
So true. Thanks for the reminder!!
So true. Thanks for the reminder!!
Amen❤

True, I always find something I was stressing about last week, I don't even remember this week.
For so many years we were blessed with amazing nurses working in our home taking care of our medically fragile twins Dorian and Wynn. As a family, our lives would not have been the same without all their loving care, professionalism and unwavering dedication. Thanks to ALL the nurses out there ... because real heroes wear scrubs, not capes!This #NationalNursesWeek, and all year long, we honor the nurses and nurse practitioners who care for and refer our wish kids. Thanks to your hard work and dedication, wish kids have the hope and strength to fight their critical illnesses. Your smiles, hugs, positivity and care help change lives forever. 💙
Meet Dak Prescott, see these amazing cars, and help grant wishes for awesome kids. My friends at @makeawishNT are working hard to make this 3rd annual event fun for all!
