What I'm Reading Now - "Lean In" by Sheryl Sandberg


Sheryl Sandberg, Facebook's COO (Chief of Operations) has a new book entitled "Lean In - Women, Work and the Will to Lead." Sandberg is very influential in what goes on in the web industry today. Her book encourages women to take positions of leadership. She believes that a huge part of why women are afraid to take on demanding roles in the work force is because of issues we have internally.



In her intro she says "...women are hindered by barriers that exist within ourselves. We hold ourselves back in ways both big and small, by lacking self-confidence, by not raising our hands, and by pulling back when we should be leaning in."

I have only just starting my reading today but so far I can tell it is an interesting read, one that is uplifting and motivating. Join me as I read, you can purchase her Ebook here http://www.amazon.com/Lean-In-Women-Work-Will/dp/0385349947/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1368484220&sr=8-1&keywords=lean+in

 Set Sail with Seahorse Sailing Adventures!


What a relaxing and tranquil experience setting sail on a private boat for dinner. I would recommend this dinner cruise to any couple who are searching for a quiet dinner away from the busy streets of Nassau or even a group of friends that want to get whisked away for a few hours together for a few drinks with dinner.

I was greeted by friendly staff, delighted to know I was a local. Upon boarding the boat, a photographer snapped a quick photo of me and my guest. We set sail promptly at 6, cruised the Nassau Harbor, around Paradise Island and back. Dinner was served after about 30 minutes into the cruise. What a tasty Bahamian menu, Peas and Rice, BBQ ribs, baked chicken, pasta and for dessert rich chocolate cake.

I enjoyed myself so much the two hours went by so fast. When we got back to the dock a little after 8 pm, there was a nice gentleman waiting with a printout of my picture he had taken when we were boarding. For a small fee I was able to get a snapshot of my awesome experience. 

Check them out guys! You can call their booking office at (242) 322-4828 or visit their website www.seahorsesailingadventures.com their friendly staff will be more than happy to help you plan your dinner cruise at sunset!
