Topping Everyone’s Bucket List Is….
A few weeks ago I teamed up with skinnyscoop.com to do a Bucket list contest. Now the results from the competition are in! The winner of the contest has been notified but the fun doesn’t stop there. I wanted to share the top ten items from everyone’s list:
So what do you think? Are these items on your bucket list too? To help your goals become a reality I recommend starting with a vision board.
It’s helpful to think about what you want from the upcoming year and specific goals you have in mind. I included Venice on my vision board last year and I got to go there in March. So start planning to make your bucket list dreams come to life in 2015!

TalkTo App is Now Path Talk
I’ve written a lot about TalkTo on this blog and on social media. It’s the app allows you to text local businesses.

When you download the new app you’ll notice that contacting businesses has now moved under the “Places” tab. The Path Talk website says the app is free to use for a limited period of time, though it’s not clear how long that is. After that you can sign up for the premium service, however the prices and what you will get for that service are not very clear either. I’ll see what else I can find out and update this when I know more. Read more
