Steven is going to discuss what some airlines and hotels are giving away for free to help those with small businesses. Studies show more companies are making a big comeback to business travel. In fact, Fall is the biggest time for businesses to travel more than they normally do. But does this apply for small businesses as well? How can they compete with the big boys when it comes to going overseas or meeting face to face with clients out of state? With that, Steven will give small business owners advice on how to get the best bang for their buck so that they can travel and how some airline and hotel companies are actually offering free overseas travel for those with small businesses.
Twenty-eight-year-old Sophia Franklin has always been overweight, but it has been an even bigger challenge recently after the loss of her brother in a car accident and juggling a very busy work and academic schedule. She works as a high school counselor, a cheer coach and a spin instructor, while also pursuing a Ph.D. in philosophy with a focus on higher education.
Burgundy Keel always put everyone else first. When her husband was deployed to Afghanistan in 2008, she was alone raising seven children, including foster care placements and one child with autism. She realized then if she didn’t get her weight under control, her children could lose both their parents – one to war and one to obesity. Despite having several overweight family members, Burgundy was a thin high school student who ran track, played tennis and worked as a local model. She married at 19 and began gaining weight with each pregnancy as she juggled the demands of motherhood and life as a military wife. She tried lap-band surgery in 2008, but it wasn’t the magic solution she was hoping for. Now 231 pounds, she says her family of five children and her husband is her greatest accomplishment and she looks forward to running a marathon once the weight is off.
