“Dr. Neecie, I so badly want to be a World Changer. But you have no idea how many times I’ve messed up, hurt people, disappointed my family… How could I possibly become a World Changer?” Last week I wrote about World Changers, and more than any blog in a long time, my email, text messages,…
I was horrified and panicked in the green room. I was being mic’d up for my presentation, and they were reading the bio for someone else! “She’s a philanthropist and a World Changer!
