Just because the Ice Bucket Challenge was successful, doesn't mean your fundraising idea won't be. Every audience is different. Find what works for your organization. Start your own challenge!

The ALS Ice Bucket Challenge, a viral sensation from 2014, raised $220 million worldwide for ALS research and patient care. As its 10th anniversary nears, the campaign's lasting effects on awareness and funding continue to benefit those affected by the disease.

Planning is important, but ex*****on is equally important. Take the time to think things through, but don't take so long you forget to act. Like many things in life, business is about balance.

Me, trying to look all innocent when my husband asks me, "Where did all your money go?" Truth is I'm either drinking it away at Starbucks or I just bought another domain name. Some days it's both. 😂

In one of my FB groups, a woman was bemoaning the fact that everyone seems to be doing better than she is. TRUTH: No one is doing "better" than you.

We are all on our own different journeys. I never get angry or sad when my peers and colleagues are successful. I'm happy and excited for them. And I know one day that will be me. It's like being mad that Taylor Swift got another Grammy. We're two totally different people on different paths. We can both be successful in different ways without it being a competition.

Next time you're feeling frustrated with your progress, take stock of where you're at and what still needs to be done. What needs improvement? How will you succeed? Approach your goals methodically and don't fall into the trap of comparing yourself with others, because it's like comparing apples and oranges.

Apparently, this guy is a standup comedian, so I don't know whether he meant this to be funny or not, but it's 100% accurate. Know a local restaurant that needs a website? Contact the monarch. I'll give their customers exactly what they're looking for.

It's easy to be passionate about what you do when your colleagues routinely leave you love letters.

You don’t need an expensive camera, a wireless mic, or a fancy website to get started. There’s nothing wrong with using your smartphone, or starting your website on a free platform like wordpress.com. Something is better than nothing, and when you have more resources, you can invest more in your business. Don’t let the lack of technology stop you from pursuing your goals. Start with what you already have and level up when you're able.

One of the best things about being a social media manager is that you get invited to all the fancy events.

As a leader, I am driven to recognizing greatness in others. When I meet another monarch, it’s like baking soda and vinegar – when we get together, fascinating ideas start bubbling up!

You start talking and your brain is processing all kinds of brilliant thoughts. It’s exciting and motivational. This is why it’s important to network. You don’t know what amazing people you will meet on your journey. Fostering new relationships built on understanding, empathy, and a focus on authentic connection encourages personal and professional growth. And that’s powerful.

One thing about authenticity in social media is that sometimes it gets too real.

One of the tactics I love using in my current role at the university is "man-on-the-street interviews." Every Wednesday, I post an IG story of students talking about the question of the week. Last week, I asked December graduates what they wished they would’ve known as freshmen, and one young person replied that they wished they would’ve known they could be themselves. 😭😭😭 I wish I could’ve given this young person a hug. I know from personal experience what it’s like to try to shape yourself to meet other people’s expectations (especially family). And I’m so thankful they had the opportunity to figure things out in college. Real success comes from being yourself and staying true to your ideals. I hope this individual has a long, happy adult life, confident in who they are. 💛💛💛

Last month I had the opportunity to sample Chef Jordan Marshall’s new dinner menu at 32 Shea. If you’ve never been, 32 Shea is a quaint neighborhood bar and grill with a relaxing dog-friendly covered patio area that sometimes features live music. It’s a bit of a drive from my house, so I hadn’t encountered it before, but I will definitely be back.

They have a decent selection of wines, but I’m more of a spirits girlie. Honestly, I can’t remember what exactly the name of the cocktail I had, but I enjoyed it.

The bruschetta is a good appetizer, but there’s a reason their artichoke + spinach dip is known throughout the valley.

The Shea Wei Shrimp starter was a tasty way to begin the evening. Flavorful and hearty.

The sunrise salad was a refreshing mix of greens, fruit, pistachios, and topped with a creamy ball of burrata.

I was pleasantly surprised by the blackened Norwegian salmon plated on a bed of orzo with olives and tomatoes. It had a delightful Mediterranean flavor.

For desert, the homemade strawberry shortcake drizzled with lavender honey was divine. Their pastries are fresh baked and delicious.

Many people know Shea 32 from it’s delicious coffee and caffeinated concoctions, but don’t hesitate to check out their dinner options, as well.
