"2025 (for me at least) will be the year of having a Plan B. Why? What’s wrong with just having a Plan A and sticking to it? Isn’t it flaky to think like this? Nope. Having a Plan B doesn’t mean you can’t have a solid Plan A. It just means the original plan needs an insurance policy." Read TEAM LEWIS' Alicia Solanki's latest blog post: https://lnkd.in/ecGiq5te
