Change makes many of us nervous. How do we go about making change? What is the right change? Many women approach me with wanting to change their life. They may have left that corporate job already to stay home with their children and now want to re-enter the workforce, but do not want to go back to what they were doing. Or others have continued working, but want to do something different. Today we have Ariane de Bonvoisin author of the First 30 days: Your Guide to Any Change and CEO and founder of the online media company First30Days.com.
