This week Victoria Walters Jacobs with Bridged Massage Therapy and Maria Carlton gave powerful presentations to kick off our Mental Health Month series for business owners.

Victoria shared the importance of relaxation and the reminder that “the body remembers,” ending with practical ways to reduce stress and reset both body and mind.

Maria shared practical, real-world suggestions from her book Don’t Kill the Joy on how to leave work at the door, create healthier boundaries, and stop carrying the stress of business into every part of life.

For a room full of entrepreneurs who rarely “clock out,” the conversations were timely, relatable, and needed.

We hope you’ll join us next week as we continue the conversation around mental health, business, and finding healthier ways to navigate the stress that comes with entrepreneurship.

There’s a seat waiting for you.

🏦 This Week’s Presentation: David Hope – Fidelity Bank 🏦

This week we heard from David Hope with Fidelity Bank, who shared the history behind the bank and what truly sets it apart.

Fidelity Bank isn’t just another bank — it’s built on a foundation of relationships, trust, and long-term commitment to the communities it serves.

David highlighted how their approach goes beyond transactions, focusing on:
🤝 Personalized service
🏡 Community connection
📈 Long-term financial relationships

In a world where banking can feel impersonal, Fidelity stands out by keeping the focus on people first.

A great reminder that where you bank — and who you trust — matters.

Sandra Rochelle Tilley with The Murphy Insurance Agency gave us a jam-packed Mentor Moment last week—one of those that really sticks with you long after the meeting.

She shared insights on:
• Clarity of purpose
• Protecting your reputation
• Training your mind to notice opportunity (not just problems)

But this question stopped me:
👉 What is the most important conversation you are currently postponing?

Whew. That one will preach.
So often, growth isn’t about learning something new…
it’s about having the conversation we’ve been avoiding.

What about you—what conversation comes to mind?

📸 This Week’s Presentation: Carmen Kelly Cox – Cherished LegaciesLegacies 📸

This week’s presentation from highlighted the powerful work she is doing across a wide variety of projects — all centered around one mission:

Protecting your memories before they’re lost.

Because the reality is…
Photos fade.
Tapes degrade.
Digital files disappear.

From restoring damaged photos…
To digitizing 40-year-old VHS tapes…
To organizing entire family estates…
To turning stories into books you can hold…

Every project reflects the importance of preserving what matters most.

One of the biggest takeaways:
👉 The biggest threat to your memories isn’t time — it’s waiting too long to act.

There are battles your memories are quietly facing right now:
💾 Hard drives fail
☁️ Cloud storage isn’t permanent
📱 Social platforms aren’t ownership
📦 Boxes get forgotten

Carmen helps individuals and families move from overwhelmed to organized — and from at risk to preserved.

If you (or someone you know) is:
📦 Sitting on boxes of photos
💍 Has wedding images still in a gallery
🎖️ Managing a family estate
🏢 Wanting to preserve a business or legacy story

This is exactly who she serves.

👉 Be your own rainmaker.

Jill with Buggy Town Yard Signs shared a powerful reminder:

Sometimes business is slow.
Sometimes it feels heavy.
Sometimes you’re waiting… and nothing happens.

That’s when you don’t wait.
You reach out.
You introduce the idea.
You ask.

Because people don’t always know they need you… until you show them.

And the truth?
The worst they can say is no.

💭 Takeaway:
Don’t sit back and hope.
Make it happen.

04/10/2026

Some businesses don’t grow from ads… they grow from relationships.

This week, I’m especially looking to connect with:
📸 Photographers
🎥 Videographers
⚖️ Estate Attorneys
🤍 Funeral Home Directors

These are the businesses that walk with people through life’s biggest moments — celebrations, transitions, and legacy.

And they deserve to be in a room where:
✔️ Trust matters
✔️ Referrals are intentional
✔️ Relationships come first

📅 We meet Wednesdays at 8 AM
(TALKS Networking of the Sandhills)

If this sounds like your kind of people —
or you know someone who would thrive here —

👉 Tag them or send us a message.

📊 This Week’s Presentation: Nathan Cherry – Good Life Financial Advisors, North Carolina 📊

This week’s presentation was a great reminder that financial planning isn’t just about numbers — it’s about clarity, confidence, and creating a good life.

Nathan walked us through a full picture of financial health — income, debt, assets, insurance, and estate planning — all tailored to each individual’s situation.

What really stood out was the use of Monte Carlo simulations.

These powerful tools run hundreds of scenarios to help clients clearly see:
📈 How prepared they are for retirement
📊 Their probability of long-term financial success
🔍 Where small changes can improve their outcome

Instead of guessing, clients can visualize their future — and then take simple, practical steps to improve their percentage and build a stronger plan.

In addition to planning, Nathan and his team also offer full asset management, helping clients align their investments with their long-term goals.

The goal isn’t perfection overnight… it’s steady progress toward a good life.
