Bragging Rights:
My dog Jose Cuervo was photographed & appeared in Black Enterprise Magazine. I'm the newest Mentor for the Straight Shot Accelerator Program, My book No, You Can't Pick My Brain spent 3 weeks at the #1 spot for Hot New Releases on Amazon. My radio show was selected Top 100 Heavy Hitter Radio Shows for Small Business by Small Business Trends. MSNBC deemed me a "Jobs Expert". My "Brain Picking" article (now a book available on Amazon, in paperback, Kindle & Nook too) on Forbes got me selected by BlogHer as a Voice of the Week. And I placed in the Top10 Savviest in Social Media by Startup Nation. There's other stuff, but then I'd look like I'm bragging.
