Shownotes

Allison Carmen joins us for an Uphill Conversation on “The Gift of Maybe.” We discuss how Maybe had changed her life and the lives of others by allowing them to remain open to possibilities.

As a life coach, business consultant and author, Allison Carmen has developed the simple life philosophy called “Maybe” to help people deal with the uncertainty of life. She has successfully applied the philosophy to help her clients, who range from entrepreneurs and owners of multi-million dollar companies to artists, actors, writers, fashion designers, attorneys, health care workers, parents, nannies and the homeless. Allison has witnessed hundreds of people, regardless of present circumstances, who had the courage to step into the realm of Maybe improve their lives. Full bio here.
