READ MORE10 Great Careers for Women Who Want a Life
Abbie Fink | Jan 6, 2012
I spent the extra couple days of the New Year’s weekend getting caught up on my magazine reading. Some local stuff (Jewish News of Greater Phoenix) mindless stuff (Entertainment Weekly), some business stuff (Inc., Fast Company) and some stuff in-between (Oprah, More). Flipping through the November issue of More (ok, I know I’m behind) I […]

Abbie Fink | Nov 18, 2011
Most of you know that I had the opportunity to travel to Israel in February 2008 with my lifelong friend Donna. The mission trip was led by Rabbi Yitz Wyne of Young Israel Aish Las Vegas and was attended by Rabbi’s son and five other people. The trip was incredible…so much to do, so much […]

Now how can you not pick up a book with that title? And the fact that it is written by Seth Godin only makes it more compelling. I downloaded the book to my Kindle a few months ago and finally took the time (all of about 90 minutes) to read it on the very long […]
