Design Your Best Work Life with Robbi Crawford

My guest for this episode of Conversations in the Zone is Alexandra Elizabeth Carpanzano. She has been blessed to find an opportunity that allows her to design her life and live her vision. Finding herself in a new state and out of her career of choice, with 8 bartending jobs and a college degree she would be paying off for the next 25 years, Alexandra chose to take a leap of faith and devote her “spare time” to building a Mary Kay business. She earned her first, free, career car during the Christmas season of 2011 while planning her wedding, moving across town and becoming a stepmom. Soon after, Alexandra moved into the top 2% of the company and debuted as a new Independent Sales Director breaking a record in her National Area of 6 weeks, and was one of the top 7 new Units nationwide! Having support from women and a company that encourages and teaches the priorities of God first, family second, and career third, she has put her hard work ethic into action and designed her life around those priorities and is currently building the life she envisions. Alexandra is currently in qualifications to earn her first PINK Cadillac, representing her love and dedication to empowering women to do the same, living debt free and having control over their choices.

Piggybank2Prosperity - Youth on the Road to Entrepreneurship

My guest is Pamela Fowler, Founder of Piggybank2Prosperity, created in December 2013. Their mission is to expose young people to the opportunities of becoming an entrepreneur. She passionately believes "The creative mind that God has given us will form an idea that He will develop and bring into existence. We believe standing on God's promises produces prosperity not as the world knows it, but as God gives it. Dreams that have action can take you anywhere."
Their young clients learn that working hard can fulfill their dreams and they encourage young people and young adults to find ways to make money to help them go to college or pay college debt after their education. Whatever the financial need, they can think of ways to help others and be a blessing through a product or a service. They also discuss how money travels in a circular motion - you must give to receive. Giving also creates a ripple effect. Their goal is to set in motion waves of blessings from one person to the next.

Drawing Caricatures as Work, How Fun is That?

For this episode of Conversations in the Zone, I have the privilege to chat with Susan Moreno, a contemporary abstract artist based in Atlanta, GA. Susan attended The Art Institute of Chicago and The Atlanta College of Art where she graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in Fine Art in 1987. Susan is an award-winning artist whose work has appeared in numerous juried shows including the Decatur Fine Arts Exhibition at The Dalton Gallery at Agnes Scott College. Her collectors include, The Bank of Atlanta, Decatur Arts Alliance, as well as, private collectors in Atlanta and Arizona. Susan grew up in Florida and was around water for much of her formative years. These early memories of water and movement are the foundation for her present work, as she pours paint on canvas and wood. The idea of unrestricted movement and liquidity are her primary concerns. She uses sand and charcoal to add texture and associations of earthiness to her images.
With over 25 years of experience Susan has entertained professionally in the Atlanta area, as well as out of state with caricatures. Over the years Susan has drawn countless caricatures for corporate events such as conventions, trade-shows, employee and customer appreciation, wedding receptions and much more.
Her client list includes Atlanta Magazine, PYA Monarch, Greystone Power, Georgia Power, AT & T, Delta, Coke, Georgia Power, just to name a few. For more information about Susan and the work she loves, visit www.susanmoreno.com, caricaturesbysusan.com or digitalcaricaturesatlanta.com.
