The Road Less Travelled-The Inner Path of Leadership

This morning, our six year old son came in to our bedroom at 4:30am.  He didn’t say anything, he just climbed in between Phil (my husband) and I, and then snuggled down to sleep again.  However,  it was a catalyst for me to wake up at that early hour and begin...
