Even though these new regulations may not directly affect most of my Members (who by definition usually have fewer than 15 employees) I STILL want you to invest a few minutes to become at least conversational about these important topics as they may affect some or all of your clients and/or referral sources.
Amazingly inspirational
This video shows the winner of "Ukraine's Got Talent", Kseniya Simonova, 24, drawing a series of pictures on an illuminated sand table showing how ordinary people were affected by the German invasion during World War II.
