Wow, what a thrill to be interviewed by Dave Buck, the head of Coachville and host of the Coachville Caffeine radio show. Coachville (back in the Thomas Leonard days) was my 1st stop for “how to be a coach” and holds a dear place in my heart.

I’ve always loved Dave’s work and his attraction to encouraging clients to play up their quirks (my kindred spirit for sure!)

So fast forward to today, and listen in as Dave interviewed me about social networking. This interview was fun and fast paced- he and I both have a good flow on the call.
