ICYMI: Top 10 Webinars of 2019

Posted 01/10/2020 by Erica Schiller

The start of a new year is the perfect time for setting new goals and prepping for the next few months of classes. Maybe your goals are huge, year-long goals or maybe it’s a small, daily habit that you’d like to implement. Either way, one of the best ways to keep yourself motivated is by having a list. You can’t finish everything at once, but you need to break up your growth into easy, achievable sections.
