Today's #TuesdayTalk guest is that kinda of person you are immediately drawn to because of her spunk, humor and overall positive energy. Arnetta Meekins moved from Michigan to Houston with a college degree in biology that turned into an independent career as a massage therapist. The way she found her way into massage therapy is an interesting story that proves the importance of giving compliments. Throughout our conversation, Arnetta shares tons of “life gems” such as “a man's word is his bond,” “do what you love in spite of what you make,” the difference between “working on the business” versus “in the business,” how we are all “addicted to staying connected” and much much more.
