Learn How This WNBA Star Becomes A Published Author

 Austin, TX  -- WNBA star, poet, writer and mental health advocate, Imani McGee-Stafford, adds published author to her burgeoning brand. Notes in The Key of Heartbreak, a book of poems by the WNBA's Atlanta Dream center standout, is the next chapter in McGee-Stafford's remarkable journey towards becoming a true renaissance woman.

"We are taught to search for love outside ourselves from a young age. We watch fairytales and romanticize relationships in search of the elusive 'happily ever after'," McGee-Stafford writes. "However, growing up, many of us don’t experience healthy, loving relationships so, we are sent into the world stumbling through heartbreaks, simply trying to do our best."


As a child, McGee-Stafford was molested by a family member and raised in an abusive and negligent environment, spending many of her teen years depressed and suicidal. In 2012, she earned a full scholarship to the University of Texas at Austin, where she eventually received the support and mental health services she long needed - support that also ultimately equipped her with enough courage to share her story. "Some of us never do the work to make ourselves whole even though we all know that none of us can give what we don't have," said McGee-Stafford, who champions mental health through her speeches in corporations, organizations, and schools around the country.

 Atlanta, GA  -- An Atlanta businessman is offering customers a one-stop online store to purchase top-named antivirus software to protect your home or business computers.

Joel Udotong, founder of the 3-year old Blue Jade Services, says customers can purchase a variety of cloud security solutions, such as Symantec, Avast, AVG, Boost, ESET, and Trend Micro. The company sends you the product key along with download instructions, and also offers free remote installation.

"This saves people time, gas and money," said Udotong, 24, born in Akwa Ibom State in Nigeria and who is currently studying computer science at Chattahoochee College. "They don't have to go to the stores just for antivirus software. They can just order from our website and the item is delivered in less than 30 minutes."

-------

 Nationwide  -- March is Women's History Month. While we celebrate the many successes women have achieved, the #MeToo movement sheds light on the fact that there is much work yet to do. 

Some people ask why women suffer in silence, and why, after accomplishing numerous firsts, do approximately 12 million women in the United States experience clinical depression, in some cases without knowing that they do? The #MeToo movement kicked off a firestorm and became the transformational calling card for women to take up their personal mantle and take responsibility to create greater happiness, get more love and generate more prosperity.

Be A Producer With Terryl Eboy

Take Control: When you decide to take control of your life and your circumstances, you'll stop blaming everyone else for what you've allowed them to do to disrupt your peace in the first place. Accountability starts within. #IamAProducer #BuildingProducers

Target To Hit Your Goals: Niching down your target audience will be scary because you feel like you are leaving money on the table, but I guarantee you're not. The more you try to market to everyone the more you are alienating yourself from your true market.

Know Your Calling: Someone asked me recently why I haven't been the visionary behind an anthology. Simple answer: That's not my calling at this point in my life.

They asked, how come I haven't hosted a big conference. Simple answer: That's not my calling at this point in my life. Just because everyone else is doing stuff, doesn't mean you should.

Know who you are and whose you are; then, act the part. Not everything is for you my friend. I hate to break it to you. Sorry not sorry. #IamAProducer #BuildingProducers
