Holiday Blogs: Help When Needed

Holidays are always complex for people who are going through troubled times. It could be the death of a loved one, being apart, fighting with various diseases or other issues, or just not feeling like your usual self.

I am writing a month of thoughts and ideas to help those who have lost something or someone precious to them. They may also be apart from loved ones this year or fighting a problem that interferes with their ability to have a happy life. They may also be finding themselves homeless at this time in their lives.

A retired Air Force Master Sergeant, Mike used to lay in bed at night and worry about what would happen if his plant closed or found himself without a job. One day his plant closed. Rather than panic and hysteria (OK, maybe a little) Mike found himself carried away on the adventure of his life. Mike started with the best job he ever had working at Home Depot. He spent 8 years working with job seekers at a local workforce center, helping them to find employment. He then started his own company developing courses, writing books and urging others to follow their own paths into the future. Mike holds a Master of Arts in Adult Education and Training and a Bachelor of Business Management, earned through the University of Phoenix and an AAS degree in Electronics Systems Technology from the Community College of the Air Force. Mike is a member of the Delta Mu Delta Business Honor Society.
