AN ELITE TEAM OF MAVERICKS
AN ELITE TEAM OF MAVERICKS By: Lauren Anderson I think it’s hard to ask for help. Especially when it’s something I don’t want to do. And something I’m not good at. And ESPECIALLY when it’s a weak spot in my personal bravery threshold. In fact, by a cruel twist of irony, I think the hardest…
